Xxxx, Ph.D dated as of August 21, 2020 (the Agreement and Plan of Merger in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and without any further amendments to the terms thereof, the “Merger

Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, the Merger Sub will merge with and into the New Borrower and New Borrower shall become a wholly owned subsidiary of Existing Borrower (the “Merger”);

WHEREAS, Borrower, Lenders and Collateral Agent desire to amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement as provided herein and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, covenants and agreements contained herein, and

other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower,

Lenders and Collateral Agent hereby agree as follows:

1.Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings

given to them in the Loan Agreement.

2.Joinder.

a.New Borrower. New Borrower hereby is added as a “Borrower” under the Loan Agreement. All references in the Agreement to “Borrower” shall hereafter mean and include the Existing Borrower and New Borrower individually and collectively, jointly and severally; and New Borrower shall hereafter have all rights, duties and obligations of “Borrower” thereunder.

b.Joinder to Loan Agreement. New Borrower hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the

Loan Documents, and agrees to comply with and be bound by all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and Loan Documents, as if it were originally named a “Borrower” therein (effective as of the date of this Amendment). Without limiting the generality of the

preceding sentence, each New Borrower agrees that it will be jointly and severally liable, together with Existing Borrower, for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. Either

Borrower may, acting singly, request Credit Extensions pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Credit Extensions pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Each Borrower hereunder shall be obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made pursuant to the Loan Agreement, regardless

of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.

c.Subrogation and Similar Rights. Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to

it under the Code or any other applicable law and (b) any right to require Collateral 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. Collateral Agent and any Lender may each 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 Amendment, the Loan Agreement, the Loan Documents or any related documents, until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and at such time as each Lender’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, 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 Collateral Agent and/or Lenders under this Amendment and the Loan 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 Amendment, the Loan 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 Amendment, the Loan Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this section shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

x.Xxxxx of Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment and performance of all of the Obligations, New Borrower hereby grants to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of New Borrower’s now existing or hereafter arising rights and interest in the Collateral, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired,

or arising, and wherever located. New Borrower further covenants and agrees that by its execution hereof it shall provide all such information, complete all such forms, and take all such actions, and enter into all such agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent

and each Lender that are reasonably deemed necessary by Collateral Agent or any Lender in order to grant a valid, perfected first priority security interest to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit

of Lenders, in the Collateral. New Borrower hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions in order to perfect or

protect Collateral Agent’s and/or any Lender’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, except to the extent such disposition are permitted pursuant to the Loan Agreement, by either Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Collateral Agent and each Lender under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Existing Borrower hereby grants and pledges to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, to secure the prompt payment and performance of all of the Obligations, a perfected

security interest in all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the New Borrower and shall simultaneously herewith deliver to Collateral Agent one or more original stock certificates, if certificated, representing such shares together with duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent.

e.Representations and Warranties. New Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Collateral Agent and each Lender that all representations and warranties in the Loan Documents made on the part of Existing Borrower are true and correct in all material respects on the date hereof (as updated

by the Perfection Certificate delivered to Collateral Agent on or around the date of this Amendment, which Perfection Certificate was accepted by Collateral Agent in its discretion) with respect to Existing Borrower and New Borrower, with the same force and effect as if New Borrower were named as “Borrower” in the Loan Documents in addition to Existing Borrower.

3.Consent. Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders, hereby consent to Existing Borrower, New Borrower and Merger Sub consummating the Merger on the date hereof, strictly in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and, to the extent that any waivers under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitations, Section 7.3 of the Loan Agreement, are required for Borrower to enter into the Merger Agreement and consummate the Merger, Collateral Agent and Required Lenders hereby provide such waivers. Furthermore, Collateral Agent and Required Lenders hereby consent to the repayment by Borrower, substantially contemporaneously with the consummation of the Merger, of that certain loan incurred by the New Borrower under 15 U.S.C. 636(a)(36) (the “SBA New Borrower PPP Loan”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1,104,508.47; provided, however, the aggregate payments made by Borrower in connection with the repayment of the SBA New Borrower PPP Loan shall not exceed $1,150,000.00.

4.Section 6.11(b) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(b) As tested on the last date of each quarter starting with the quarter ending September 30, 2020, (i) actual TTM Revenue for the Existing Borrower for the 12-month period then ended in an amount not less than seventy-five percent (75.00%) of the projections for the same 12-month period as then ended as set forth in the Management Plan and (ii) actual TTM Revenue for the Existing Borrower and New Borrower on a consolidated basis for the 12-month period then ended in an amount not less than seventy-five percent (75.00%) of the projections for the same 12-month period as then ended as set forth in the Management Plan.

5.The following Section 12.14 is hereby added to the Loan Agreement:

12.14 Borrower Liability. Either 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 Borrower 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 Collateral 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. Collateral 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, 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 Collateral 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 shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Collateral Agent and the Lenders and

such payment shall be promptly delivered to Collateral Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
