3. Xxxxxxxx’s Reaffirmation of Obligations. As of the Modification Effective Date, Borrower hereby unconditionally confirms, ratifies and reaffirms the Loan and all of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents, as modified by this Agreement, and agrees to continue to keep, observe and comply with all covenants, obligations, terms and conditions therein. Borrower hereby confirms, ratifies and reaffirms, as of the Modification Effective Date, all of the representations, warranties and covenants of Borrower contained in the Loan Documents, except to the extent expressly relating to a specific date.
4. Modification of the Loan and Loan Documents. Subject to the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement, as of the Modification Effective Date, the Loan Documents will be modified and amended as follows:
4.1 Modifications of the Loan Agreement:
(a) The definition of “Commitment Term” in Section 1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by replacing “March 13, 2024” with “March 13, 2026.”
(b) The definition of “Maturity Date” in Section 1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by replacing “March 13, 2024” with “March 13, 2026.”
(c) The definition of “Eligible Receivables” in Section 1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
i. Subitem (b) is replaced with the following:
“(b) Collateral Loans that are in default or otherwise nonperforming or which are in forbearance;”
ii. Subitems (p) and (q) are restated as follows:
“(p) Any Collateral Loan that is required to be removed as part of the Borrowing Base pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
2
(q) Any Underlying Collateral which Borrower elects to remove from the Borrowing Base by providing written notice to Lender.”
iii. New Subitems (r), (s), and (t) are added as follows:
“(r) Any Collateral Loan that is secured by a Collateral Deed of Trust that is subordinated;
(s) Any Collateral Loan that has been participated; and
(t) Any Collateral Loan that is secured by a Collateral Deed of Trust made by Borrower or any Guarantor, or their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, or trustees, or any Affiliates of any of the foregoing”
(d) Section 4.1.2 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by replacing “March 13, 2026” with “March 13, 2028.”
(e) Section 4.12 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by replacing “March 13, 2026” with “March 13, 2028.”
(f) Exhibit E to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety with Schedule 1 attached hereto.
4.2 Modifications of the Note:
(a) The “Maturity Date” as defined in the paragraph of the Note entitled “MATURITY DATE” is hereby amended by replacing “March 13, 2024” with “March 13, 2026.”
(b) The paragraph of the Note entitled “INTEREST RATE” and the paragraph immediately following such paragraph are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
“INTEREST RATE. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be computed and calculated based upon a three hundred sixty (360)-day year and actual days elapsed and shall accrue at the per annum rate (the ‘Note Rate’) equal to the greater of (i) six percent (6%) (the ‘Floor’) or (ii) three and one-half percent (3.5%) in excess of the Term SOFR Rate, as the same may change from time to time. Borrower acknowledges that it understands that the calculation of interest based on the foregoing method will result in a higher effective rate of interest than if calculated on a three hundred sixty-five (365)-day year.
3
‘Term SOFR Rate’ means the 1-month Term SOFR Reference Rate (‘Term SOFR’) which is published for loans in United States Dollars by CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited and is obtained by Lender from Bloomberg Financial Services Systems with the code TSFR1M (or, if no longer available, any similar or successor publication selected by Lender). The Term SOFR Rate shall initially be determined on the date that is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days immediately before the date of this Agreement and shall thereafter be adjusted monthly on the first day of each calendar month to be the Term SOFR determined by Lender to be in effect on the date that is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the first day of each calendar month. ‘U.S. Government Securities Business Day’ means any day except for (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday or (iii) a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in United States government securities.
If Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that either of the following has occurred: (i) Term SOFR ceases to exist or is no longer available; or (ii) a public announcement by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of Term SOFR, or a determination made by Lender, that Term SOFR is no longer representative, then commencing on the next reset date, the interest rate hereunder shall be replaced with such alternate base rate and spread (collectively, ‘Benchmark Replacement’) as Lender determines in its sole discretion to be most comparable to the then-current interest rate. If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to this section would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Note and the other Loan Documents.
In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Lender will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Borrower. ‘Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes’ means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes, such as changes to the definitions of ‘Business Day,’ ‘Interest Period,’ or timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of
4
interest, that Xxxxxx decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Lender decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if Lender determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as Xxxxxx decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Note and the other Loan Documents).”
(c) The second, third and fourth paragraphs of the section of the Note entitled “PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS” are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
“In the event the Loan is converted to the Term Loan pursuant to Section 4.12 of the Loan Agreement, then:
(a) Commencing on April 1, 2026, and continuing on the same day of each and every calendar month thereafter until the Maturity Date (as extended pursuant to Section 4.12 of the Loan Agreement), Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly installment payments of principal and interest in an amount sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of this Note over a one hundred twenty (120) month period (measured for a 120 month period commencing as of the Conversion Date), with interest calculated using the Note Rate; and
(b) In addition to the monthly installment payments of principal and interest, as set forth in clause (a) above, commencing on June 1, 2026, and continuing on the last day of each March, June, September and December, Borrower shall pay to Lender quarterly installment payments of principal, each in an amount equal to twelve and one-half percent (12.50%) of the outstanding principal balance of this Note as of the Conversion Date.”
5. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness. Notwithstanding any other conditions that may be imposed upon Borrower by Xxxxxx in Xxxxxx’s sole discretion, this Agreement shall be effective only upon satisfaction of the following:
(a) There shall be no Event of Default by Borrower or Guarantor under any of the Loan Documents.
5
(b) Borrower and Guarantor shall sign and deliver to Lender this Agreement and such other documents and instruments as Lender shall reasonably require to carry out the purpose of this Agreement.
(c) Borrower shall pay to Lender a fully earned and non-refundable origination fee equal to Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($50,000.00).
(d) Payment of any actual, out-of-pocket fees and costs of Lender in connection with the preparation, negotiation, administration and execution of this Agreement including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and other costs and fees of other professionals retained by Xxxxxx.
6. Effect of Modification; No Novation. The Loan Documents are amended and modified as set forth in this Agreement. To the extent not expressly modified herein, all other terms of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and Xxxxxxxx hereby expressly agrees to be bound thereby. The terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, and the indebtedness evidenced thereby, are and will remain in full force and effect, as modified by this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not constitute a novation. All such indebtedness shall continue to be secured by, among other things, the Loan Agreement (as the same may be modified or amended herein and from time to time).
7. Xxxxxxxx’s Representations and Warranties. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that: (a) Borrower is a limited liability company, organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, in good standing, and that Borrower has the full power and authority to make the agreements contained herein without the joinder or consent of any other party; (b) that the person or persons signing this Agreement and all other documents related hereto, on behalf of Borrower has full authority to bind Borrower; and (c) the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and of the other documents related hereto will not contravene or constitute a default under any mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, indenture or other agreement to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower or any of its property is bound.
8. Release, Settlement, Compromise, and Waiver of Other Claims. In consideration of the modification of the Loan Documents as herein provided, Borrower hereby compromises, releases, waives, relinquishes, and forever discharges Lender, as well as Xxxxxx’s successors, assigns, agents, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and representatives, of and from any and all claims, demands, statutory and common law actions and causes of action of any and every kind or character, whether known or unknown, which Borrower may have against such persons or entities, arising out of or with respect to any and all transactions relating to the Loan Documents occurring prior to the date hereof, including any loss, cost or damage, of any kind or character, arising out of or in any way connected with or in any way resulting from the acts, actions or omissions of such persons or entities, including but not limited to any breach of fiduciary duty, breach of any duty of fair dealing, breach of confidence, breach of funding commitment, undue influence, duress, economic coercion, conflict of interest, negligence, bad faith, malpractice, violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, intentional or negligent infliction of mental distress, tortious interference with contractual relations, tortious interference with corporate governance or prospective business advantage, breach of contract, deceptive trade practices, libel, slander, or conspiracy, but in each case only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
6

10. Accuracy of Information. All written information provided by Borrower or Guarantor to Lender in furtherance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in or accompanying any loan application, financial statement, certificate, or other documents, and all other written information delivered by or on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor in connection with this Agreement is correct and complete in all material respects as of the date of such information, and to Borrower’s knowledge, there are no omissions in any of the information that result in such information being materially incomplete, incorrect, or misleading as of the date of such information.

This Agreement does not, and shall not be deemed or construed to, constitute the creation of new indebtedness or the satisfaction, discharge or extinguishment of the debt secured by the Loan Documents.
13. Choice of Law/Venue. This Agreement shall be construed, governed by and venue shall be elected according to the laws and venue set forth in the Loan Documents.
14. Severability. This Agreement is intended to be performed in accordance with and only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
