Section 4. Partial Redemption Payments; Interest; Maturity Date Payment; Prepayment.

(A)Partial Redemption Payments. On each Partial Redemption Date, the Company shall redeem a Partial Redemption Payment of this Note (in an Authorized Denomination). Such Partial Redemption Payment may be canceled by the Holder at any time prior to the receipt of the applicable Partial Redemption Payment from the Company. The Company shall pay the Holder the Partial Redemption Payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the applicable Partial Redemption Date. Any Partial Redemption Payment paid pursuant to this Section 4(A) shall reduce the Principal Amount by such paid amount divided by one and twenty hundredths (1.20). If this Note (or any portion of this Note) is to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 4(A), then, from and after the date the related Partial Redemption Payment is paid in full, this Note (or such portion) will cease to be outstanding and interest will cease to accrue on this Note (or such portion). The Company shall deliver to the Trustee a written notice of any Partial Redemption Payment, including the applicable amount of the Partial Redemption Payment (a “Partial Redemption Notice”), within two (2) Business Days after the applicable Partial Redemption Date.

(B)Interest. Except as provided in Section 9(D), this Note will accrue interest (the “Stated Interest”) at a rate per annum equal to the Stated Interest Rate. Stated Interest on this Note will (i) accrue on the Principal Amount of this Note; (ii) accrue from, and including, the most recent date to which Stated Interest has been paid or duly provided for (or, if no Stated Interest has theretofore been paid or duly provided for, the Issue Date) to, but excluding, the date of payment of such Stated Interest; (iii) be paid to Holder in cash on each Interest Payment Date in accordance with Section 5(A); (iv) with respect to the amount of interest then accrued on the portion of the Principal Amount being redeemed in connection with a Cash Sweep Payment, be paid to the Holder in arrears as of the date of such Cash Sweep Payment in accordance with this Section 4, as applicable; (v) with respect to the amount of interest then accrued on the portion of the Principal Amount being redeemed on a Partial Redemption Date, be paid to the Holder in arrears as of each such date in accordance with this Section 4, as applicable; (vi) with respect to the amount of interest then accrued on the portion of the Principal Amount being repurchased on a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, be paid to the Holder in arrears as of each such date in accordance with Section 6, as applicable; and (vi) be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

(C)Maturity Date Payment. On the Maturity Date, the Company will pay the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Maturity Principal Amount for the then-outstanding Principal Amount of this Note plus any accrued and unpaid interest on this Note.

(D)Cash Sweep Payments.

(i)For purposes of this Note, any payment made to the Holder pursuant to Section 4(D) shall be referred to as a “Cash Sweep Payment”. All Cash Sweep Payments shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount repaid.

(ii)Concurrently with the completion of any Cash Sweep Financing, the Company shall certify to Holder in writing (i) the amount of the applicable Cash Sweep Financing and (ii) the calculation of the potential Cash Sweep Amount with respect to such

Cash Sweep Financing (including a certification that such Cash Sweep Amount was calculated in accordance with the terms hereof) (such certification a “Cash Sweep Certification”); provided, however, that, unless consented to by the Holder in writing, in the event that the extent of such Cash Sweep Financing and Cash Sweep Amount is such that the information required in such certification would constitute material non-public information regarding the Company, then the Company shall also concurrently publicly disclose such material non-public information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise.

(iii) The Holder shall have the right to require the Company, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee) of exercise of such right (a “Cash Sweep Notice”), to redeem all or a portion of this Note in cash within three (3) Business Days following the delivery of such Cash Sweep Notice (regardless of whether the Company actually delivers a Cash Sweep Certification) for all or a portion of the Cash Sweep Amount with respect to such Cash Sweep Financing. If the Holder or any Other Holder elects to redeem all or a portion of any Other Notes for all or a portion of the Cash Sweep Amount with respect to the same Cash Sweep Financing, the Trustee shall then select the redemption portions of the principal of this Note and such Other Notes on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or such other method the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. The Company shall pay the Holder the Cash Sweep Payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Any Cash Sweep Payment paid pursuant to this Section 4(D) shall reduce the Principal Amount by such paid amount divided by one and twenty hundredths (1.20). If this Note (or any portion of this Note) is to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 4(D), then, from and after the date the related Cash Sweep Payment is paid in full, this Note (or such portion) will cease to be outstanding and interest will cease to accrue on this Note (or such portion).

(E) Prepayment. The Company may not prepay this Note without the written consent of the Required Holders.

Section 5. Method of Payment; When Payment Date is Not a Business Day.

(A) Method of Payment. The Company will pay all cash amounts due under this Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Holder as set forth in a written notice of an account of such Holder delivered by the Holder to the Company at least one (1) Business Day before the date such amount is due.

(B)Delay of Payment when Payment Date is Not a Business Day. If the due date for a payment on this Note as provided in this Note is not a Business Day, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, such payment may be made on the immediately following Business Day and no interest will accrue on such payment as a result of the related delay.

(C)Event of Default Stock Payments. If an Event of Default occurs and the Company fails to pay the Event of Default Acceleration Amount when due in accordance with this Note, then the Holder may elect to receive such unpaid portion of the Event of Default Acceleration Amount, entirely or partially, in shares of Common Stock (an “Event of Default Stock Payment”), and shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee) a written notice of such election stating which portion thereof the Holder has elected to receive in shares of Common Stock (an “Event of Default Stock Payment Notice”). On or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of delivery of any Event of Default Stock Payment Notice hereunder (the “Event of Default Stock Payment Delivery Date”), the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder, a number of validly issued, fully paid and Freely Tradable shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient (rounded up to the closest whole number) obtained by dividing the Event of Default Acceleration Amount (or applicable portion thereof) by the Market

Stock Payment Price as of the date of delivery of the Event of Default Stock Payment Notice; provided, that, if the Company fails to timely issue and deliver to the Holder such shares of Common Stock, then the Holder may revoke its election to receive shares of Common Stock and elect to receive such Event of Default Acceleration Amount (or any portion thereof) in cash at any time prior to delivery of such shares of Common Stock. Any portion of the Event of Default Acceleration Amount not paid in shares of Common Stock because the Holder did not elect, or effectively revoked its election, to receive shares of Common Stock for such Event of Default Acceleration Amount (or applicable portion thereof) will be paid in cash; provided, that the Holder may deliver multiple Event of Default Stock Payment Notices in accordance with this Section 5(C) to the extent that any portion of the Event of Default Acceleration Amount remains unpaid when due in accordance with this Note. If (x) the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason on or prior to the applicable Event of Default Stock Payment Delivery Date to deliver shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Section 5(C) (such shares to which Holder is entitled referred to as the “Undelivered Shares”); and (y) the Holder (whether directly or indirectly, including by any broker acting on the Holder’s behalf or acting with respect to such Undelivered Shares) purchases any shares of Common Stock (whether in the open market or otherwise) to cover any such Undelivered Shares (whether to satisfy any settlement obligations with respect thereto of the Holder or otherwise), then, without limiting the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedy available to it (whether hereunder, under applicable law or otherwise), the Holder will have the right, exercisable by notice to the Company, to cause the Company to either:

(i)pay, on or before the second (2nd) Business Day after the date such notice is delivered, cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price (including any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket costs) incurred to purchase such shares (such aggregate purchase price, the “Covering Price”); or

(ii)promptly deliver, to the Holder, such Undelivered Shares in accordance with this Note, together with cash in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Covering Price over the product of (x) the number of such Undelivered Shares; and (y) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date of delivery of the related Event of Default Stock Payment Notice.

To exercise such right, the Holder must deliver notice of such exercise to the Company, specifying whether the Holder has elected clause (i) or (ii) above to apply. If the Holder has elected clause (i) to apply, then the Company’s obligation to deliver the Undelivered Shares in accordance with this Note will be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged to the extent the Company has paid the Covering Price in accordance with clause (i). Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver Common Stock to the Holder by the applicable Event of Default Stock Payment Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each one thousand dollars ($1,000) of Undelivered Shares (based on the Daily VWAP on the applicable Event of Default Stock Payment Delivery Date), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Event of Default Stock Payment Delivery Date until the cash amount set forth in Section 5(C)(i) is paid to the Holder or the shares of Common Stock are delivered to the Holder pursuant to Section 5(C)(ii). Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be responsible for holding or delivering shares of Common Stock to the Holder.

(D)Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not issue shares pursuant to this Note, and the Holder shall

not have the right to receive shares pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such issuance shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to, this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 5(D). For purposes of this Section 5(D), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Note, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire in connection with this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Commission, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent (as defined in the Securities Exchange Agreement) setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a notice from the Holder related to any issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with this Note at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such issuance of shares of Common Stock would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 5(D), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder pursuant to this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares; provided, however that, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be required to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the terms of this Note shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be issued such shares (and any such shares declared or made on such initial issuance or on any subsequent issuance held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective

until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any Other Holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No prior inability to receive shares pursuant to this Note pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of issuance. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 5(D) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 5(D) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note. The Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to rely on the representations and other information set forth in any notice from the Holder related to any issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with this Note and shall not be required to independently verify whether any issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Note would cause the Holder (together with the other Attribution Parties) to collectively beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to such issuance or otherwise trigger the provisions of this Section 5(D). The Trustee shall have no obligation to monitor any limitations on beneficial ownership in connection with this Section 5(D).

(E)Stock Exchange Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note or any Other Note, until the Requisite Stockholder Approval is obtained, in no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Note, all Other Notes and all Subsequently Purchased Notes, together with all other shares, if any theretofore issued pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement, this Note, all Other Notes and all Subsequently Purchased Notes, including (for the avoidance of doubt) Event of Default Stock Payments exceed 39,349,491 shares in the aggregate. If any one or more shares of Common Stock are not delivered as a result of the operation of the preceding sentence (such shares, the “Withheld Shares”), then (1) on the date such shares of Common Stock are issuable hereunder (without effect to any limitations imposed under Section 5(D)), the Company will pay to the Holder, in addition to the shares otherwise due to the Holder hereunder, cash in an amount equal to the product of (x) the number of such Withheld Shares; and (y) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date of delivery of the related Event of Default Stock Payment Notice; and (2) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in settlement of a sale by the Holder of such Withheld Shares, the Company will reimburse the Holder for (x) any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection with such purchases and (y) the excess, if any, of (A) the aggregate purchase price of such purchases over (B) the product of (I) the number of such Withheld Shares purchased by the Holder; and (II) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date of delivery of the related Event of Default Stock Payment Notice.

Section 6. Required Repurchase of Note upon a Fundamental Change.

(A) Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change. Subject to the other terms of this Section 6, if a Fundamental Change occurs, then the Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase this Note (or any portion of this Note in an Authorized Denomination) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change for a cash purchase price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

(B) Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. The Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for any Fundamental Change will be a Business Day of the Holder’s choosing that is no more than twenty (20) Business Days after the later of (x) the date the Company delivers to the Holder the related Fundamental Change Notice pursuant to Section 6(C); and (y) the effective date of such Fundamental Change.

(C) Fundamental Change Notice. No later than the fifth (5th) Business Day before the occurrence of any Fundamental Change, the Company will send to the Holder (with a copy to the Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Notice”) thereof (provided, however, in no event shall such notice be required prior to the actual public announcement of such Fundamental Change), stating the expected date such Fundamental Change will occur. No later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date of delivery of the Fundamental Change Notice, the Holder shall notify the Company in writing whether it will require the Company to repurchase this Note and specify the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date.

(D) Effect of Repurchase. If this Note (or any portion of this Note) is to be repurchased upon a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change, then, from and after the date the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Price is paid in full, this Note (or such portion) will cease to be outstanding and interest will cease to accrue on this Note (or such portion).

Section 7.Affirmative and Negative Covenants.

(A)Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. To the extent that it may lawfully do so, the Company (A) agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law (wherever or whenever enacted or in force) that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note; and (B) expressly waives all benefits or advantages of any such law and agrees that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Holder by this Note, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

(B)Corporate Existence. Subject to Section 8, the Company will cause to preserve and keep in full force and effect:

(i)its corporate existence and the corporate existence of its Subsidiaries in accordance with the organizational documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as applicable; and

(ii)the material rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries;

provided, however, that the Company need not preserve or keep in full force and effect any such rights (charter and statutory), license or franchise or existence of any of its Subsidiaries if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that (x) the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (y) the loss thereof is not, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to the Holder; provided further, that any Subsidiary may merge into, amalgamate or consolidate with any other Subsidiary and any Subsidiary may liquidate or dissolve if all of its property passes to the Company or another Subsidiary.

(C)Ranking. All payments due under this Note shall rank (i) pari passu with all Other Notes and all Subsequently Purchased Notes, (ii) effectively senior to all unsecured obligations of the Company to the extent of the value of the Collateral securing the Notes for so long as the

Collateral so secures the Notes in accordance with the terms hereof and (iii) senior to any Subordinated Indebtedness.

(D)Indebtedness; Amendments to Indebtedness. The Company shall not and shall not permit any Subsidiary to: (a) create, incur, assume, guarantee or be or remain liable with respect to any Indebtedness, other than Permitted Indebtedness; (b) prepay any Indebtedness except by the conversion of Indebtedness into equity securities (other than Disqualified Stock) and the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares in connection with such conversion; or (c) amend or modify any documents or notes evidencing any Indebtedness in any manner which shortens the maturity date or any amortization, redemption or interest payment date thereof or otherwise imposes materially more burdensome terms upon the Company or its Subsidiaries than exist in such Indebtedness prior to such amendment or modification without the prior written consent of Holder. The Company shall not and shall not permit any Subsidiary to incur any Indebtedness that would cause a breach or Default under the Notes or prohibit or restrict the performance of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Notes, including without limitation, the payment of interest and principal thereon.

(E)Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien of any kind on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens.

(F)Investments. The Company shall not directly or indirectly acquire or own, or make any Investment in or to any Person, or permit any of its Subsidiaries so to do, other than Permitted Investments; provided that the Company may not make any Investment (including a Permitted Investment) or permit any of its Subsidiaries to make any Investment (including a Permitted Investment) if (i) any Event of Default has occurred hereunder or (ii) any event or circumstance has occurred and is continuing which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default with respect to Section 9(A)(ii), Section 9(A)(iv), Section 9(A)(vi), Section 9(A)(ix), Section 9(A)(x), Section 9(A)(xi) or Section 9(A)(xiv).

(G)Distributions. The Company shall not, and shall not allow any Subsidiary to, (a) repurchase or redeem any class of stock or other Equity Interest other than pursuant to employee, director or consultant equity incentive, stock purchase or repurchase plans or awards granted thereunder or other similar agreements provided under plans approved by the Board of Directors; provided, however, in each case the repurchase or redemption price does not exceed the original consideration paid for such stock or Equity Interest, or (b) declare or pay any cash dividend or make a cash distribution on any class of stock or other Equity Interest, except that a Subsidiary of the Company may pay dividends or make distributions to the Company or a parent company that is a direct or indirect Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company, or (c) lend money to any employees, officers or directors (except as permitted under clause (F) of the definition of Permitted Investment), or guarantee the payment of any such loans granted by a third party in excess of two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate or (d) waive, release or forgive any Indebtedness owed by any employees, officers or directors in excess of two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate. If there are dividends or distributions made by the Company or any Subsidiary, within one (1) Business Day following the date on which the Company files an Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the Commission, the Company will provide the Holder with a written notice setting forth the aggregate amount of dividends or distributions made by the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 7(G) for the period covered by such Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable.

passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default with respect to Section 9(A)(ii), Section 9(A)(iv), Section 9(A)(vi), Section 9(A)(ix), Section 9(A)(x), Section 9(A)(xi) or Section 9(A)(xiv).

The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, engage in any material line of business substantially different from those lines of business conducted by or publicly contemplated to be conducted by the Company and each of its Subsidiaries on the Issue Date or any business substantially related or incidental thereto.

(L)Maintenance of Properties, Etc. The Company shall maintain and preserve, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, all of its properties which are necessary or useful (as determined by the Company in good faith) to the conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and comply at all times in all material respects with the provisions of all leases to which it is a party as lessee or under which it occupies property, so as to prevent any loss or forfeiture thereof or thereunder.

The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, (i) issue any Notes or (ii) issue any other securities or incur any Indebtedness, in each case, that would cause a breach or Default under the Notes or that by its terms would prohibit or restrict the performance of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Notes, including, without limitation, the payment of principal thereon.

(Q)Share Reserve. So long as this Note remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times have no less than a number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred million (100,000,000) shares of Common Stock, which shall not be exclusively reserved for issuance pursuant to the Notes (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 7(Q) be reduced other than in connection with any stock combination, reverse stock split or other similar transaction. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain stockholder approval (if required) of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount.

(R)Minimum Cash Spend Availability. On the last calendar day of each calendar month beginning with the calendar month ending December 31, 2023 (each a “Cash Burn Measurement Date”), the Company’s and its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries’ Available Cash on the Cash Burn Measurement Date shall be greater than or equal to (A) the Company’s and its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries’ Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Quarterly Cash Burn Reference Date, less (B) the Permitted Quarterly Cash Burn.

(S)Independent Investigation. At the request of the Required Holders at any time the Required Holders have determined in good faith that (i) an Event of Default has occurred or (ii) any event or circumstance has occurred and is continuing which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default but the Company has not timely agreed to such determination in writing, the Company shall hire an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Required Holders to investigate as to whether such Event of Default or event or circumstance has occurred (the “Independent Investigator”). If the Independent Investigator determines that such Event of Default or event or circumstance has occurred, the Independent Investigator shall notify the Company of such Event of Default or occurrence of such event or circumstance and the Company shall promptly deliver written notice to the Holder of such Event of Default if such Event of Default has occurred. In connection with such investigation, the Independent Investigator may, during normal business hours and upon signing a confidentiality agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, inspect all contracts, books, records, personnel, offices and other facilities and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the extent available to the Company after the Company uses reasonable efforts to obtain them, the records of its accountants (including the accountants’ work papers) and any books of account, records, reports and other papers not contractually required of the Company to be confidential or secret, or subject to attorney-client or other evidentiary privilege, and the Independent Investigator may make such copies and inspections thereof as the Independent Investigator may reasonably request. The Company shall furnish the Independent Investigator with such financial and operating data and other information with respect to the business and properties of the Company as the Independent Investigator may reasonably request. The Company shall permit the Independent Investigator to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company with, and to make proposals and furnish advice with respect thereto to, any of the Company’s officers, directors, key employees and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Company authorizes said accountants to discuss with such Independent Investigator the finances and affairs of the Company and any Subsidiaries), all at such reasonable times, upon reasonable notice, and as often as may be reasonably requested.

(T)Upon delivery by the Company to the Holder (or receipt by the Company from the Holder) of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Note, unless the Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company shall on or prior to 9:00 am, New York City time on the Business Day immediately following such notice delivery date, publicly disclose such material, non-public information on a Form 8-K or otherwise. In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to the Holder explicitly in writing in such notice (or immediately upon receipt of notice from the Holder, as applicable), and in the absence of any such written indication in such notice (or notification from the Company immediately upon receipt of notice from the Holder), the Holder shall be entitled to presume that information contained in the notice does not constitute material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Nothing contained in this Section 7(T) shall limit any obligations of the Company, or any rights of the Holder, under the Securities Exchange Agreement.

(U)The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holder is not a fiduciary or agent of the Company, the Holder will not have any obligations hereunder except those obligations expressly set forth herein (and in the Securities Exchange Agreement) and the Holder is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the Note and not as a fiduciary or agent of the Company. The Company agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Holder based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Holder in connection with the Note. The Company acknowledges that the Holder shall have no obligation to (a) maintain the confidentiality of any information provided by the Company or (b) refrain

from trading any securities while in possession of such information in the absence of a written non-disclosure agreement signed by an officer of the Holder that explicitly provides for such confidentiality and trading restrictions. In the absence of such an executed, written non-disclosure agreement, the Company acknowledges that the Holder may freely trade in any securities issued by the Company, may possess and use any information provided by the Company in connection with such trading activity, and may disclose any such information to any third party.

(V)The Company shall cause this Note and any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Note to be eligible to be offered, sold or otherwise transferred by the Holder pursuant to Rule 144, without any requirements as to volume, manner of sale, availability of current public information (whether or not then satisfied) or notice under the Securities Act and without any requirement for registration under any state securities or “blue sky” law, on and after the date that is six (6) months following the Issue Date. If this Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall notify the Company and surrender this Note to the Company (or provide the Company an affidavit in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company that this Note was lost, stolen or destroyed), whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note, registered as the Holder may request.

(W)So long as this Note remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times have access to an ATM Program, the terms of which have been approved by the Required Holders in accordance with the Securities Exchange Agreement with aggregate available, accessible and unused capacity to generate gross proceeds to the Company of at least ten million dollars ($10,000,000). On or before January 31, 2024, the Company shall establish a new ATM Program (or increase the Existing ATM Sales Program (as defined in the Securities Exchange Agreement)) such that the Company has an ATM Program with aggregate available, accessible and unused capacity to generate gross proceeds to the Company of at least seventy five million dollars ($75,000,000) as of January 31, 2024, and such ATM Program shall not be subsequently canceled, or amended or otherwise modified to reduce such amount, without the written consent of the Required Holders.

(X)The Company shall pay when due any and all fees and expenses owed by it under all deposit accounts located in the United States and subject to a control agreement entered into in favor of the Collateral Agent.

(Y)As of the Issue Date (which period may be extended in the reasonable discretion of the Collateral Agent), the Company or relevant Subsidiary of the Company shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent the Amendments to Security Documents, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, which create a first lien security interest in all assets of the Company including, but not limited to its intellectual property (subject to prior Liens and other customary exclusions, in each case acceptable to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) (the “Collateral”) and shall perfect a first lien security interest in all such assets of the Company other than the Company’s non-U.S. assets. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event before forty-five (45) days after the Issue Date of the Notes (which period may be extended in the reasonable discretion of the Collateral Agent), the Company or relevant Subsidiary of the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent (a) such additional security documents and/or amendments to existing security documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent (the “Ancillary Security Documents”), which perfect a first lien security interest in all remaining assets of the Company (subject to prior Liens and other customary exclusions, in each case acceptable to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) and (b) with respect to such Ancillary Security Documents, customary legal opinions relating to such Ancillary Security Documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent.

(Z)At no time shall any Intellectual Property (regardless of the value of such Intellectual Property) or any other assets with a fair market value in excess of five million dollars ($5,000,000) in the aggregate be held by Subsidiaries of the Company formed in jurisdictions outside of the United States, unless the Holder shall have been previously granted a perfected first lien security interest in such assets pursuant to security documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assets shall be held by Subsidiaries of the Company formed in jurisdictions outside of the United States in the event that holding such assets in such Subsidiaries would be in violation of the Security Agreements as amended by the Amendments to Security Documents and the Ancillary Security Documents.

(AA)Common Stock Issued Pursuant to this Note.

(i)Status of Shares Issued; Listing. Each share of Common Stock delivered pursuant to this Note will be a newly issued or treasury share and will be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any Lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any Lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the Holder or the Person to whom such share will be delivered). If the Common Stock is then listed on any securities exchange, or quoted on any inter-dealer quotation system, then the Company will cause each share of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Note, when delivered, to be admitted for listing on such exchange or quotation on such system.

(ii)Transferability of Shares Issued. Any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Note will be issued in the form of book-entries at the facilities of DTC, identified therein by an “unrestricted” CUSIP number.

Section 8.Successors.

The Company will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or (directly, or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries) sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person, other than the Holder or any of its Affiliates (a “Business Combination Event”), unless:

(A)the resulting, surviving or transferee Person either (x) is the Company or (y) if not the Company, is a corporation (the “Successor Corporation”) duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia that expressly assumes (by executing and delivering to the Holder and the Trustee, at or before the effective time of such Business Combination Event, a supplement to this instrument) all of the Company’s obligations under this Note; and

(B)immediately after giving effect to such Business Combination Event, no Event of Default will have occurred that has not been waived and no Default will have occurred and be continuing which has not been waived.

At the effective time of any Business Combination Event, the Successor Corporation (if not the Company) will succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Note with the same effect as if such Successor Corporation had been named as the Company in this Note, and, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Company will be discharged from its obligations under this Note.

This Section 8 will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of property or assets between or among any of the Company and its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries.

Upon the occurrence of any Business Combination Event, the Company shall deliver the supplemental indenture, officers’ certificate and opinion of counsel contemplated pursuant to Section 5.1(b) of the Base Indenture.

Section 9.Defaults and Remedies

(A)Events of Default. “Event of Default” means the occurrence of any of the following (whose occurrence, for the avoidance of doubt, may be waived, but may not be cured):

(v)any failure to timely deliver an Event of Default Notice or a materially false or inaccurate certification as to whether any Event of Default has occurred;

(vi)a default in any of the Company’s obligations or agreements under this Note or the Transaction Documents (in each case, other than a default set forth in clauses (i) – (v) or (vii) – (xviii) of this Section 9(A)), or a breach of any representation or warranty in any material respect (other than representations or warranties subject to material adverse effect or materiality qualifications, which may not be breached in any respect) of any Transaction Document as of the date when made (except for representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be true and correct as of such specific date); provided, however, that if such default can be cured, then such default shall not be an Event of Default unless the Company has failed to cure such default within ten (10) days after its occurrence;

(vii)any provision of any Transaction Document at any time for any reason (other than pursuant to the express terms thereof) ceases to be valid and binding on or enforceable against the parties thereto, or the validity or enforceability thereof is contested, directly or indirectly, by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or a proceeding is commenced by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over any of them, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof;

(xi)one or more final judgments, orders or awards (or any settlement of any litigation or other proceeding that, if breached, could result in a judgment, order or award) for the payment of at least two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) (or its foreign currency equivalent) in the aggregate (excluding any amounts covered by insurance pursuant to which the insurer has been notified and has not denied coverage), is rendered against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and remains unsatisfied and (i) enforcement proceedings shall have been commenced by any creditor upon any such judgment, order, award or settlement or (ii) there shall be a period of ten (10) consecutive Trading Days after entry thereof during which (A) a stay of enforcement thereof is not in effect or (B) the same is not vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal;

(xiv)any material damage to, or loss, theft or destruction of, any material portion of the Collateral (provided that any damage, loss, theft or destruction of

the Collateral that reduces the value of such Collateral by two hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) or more shall be deemed to be material), whether or not insured, or any strike, lockout, labor dispute, embargo, condemnation, act of God or public enemy, or other casualty which causes, for more than fifteen (15) consecutive days, the cessation or substantial curtailment of revenue producing activities at any facility of the Company or any Subsidiary, if any such event or circumstance could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Securities Exchange Agreement).

(3)orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; or

(4)grants any similar relief with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries under any foreign Bankruptcy Law,

and, in each case under this Section 9(A)(xvi), such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for at least thirty (30) days.

(xviii)the Company’s stockholders approve any plan for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company

(B)Acceleration.

(i)Automatic Acceleration in Certain Circumstances. If an Event of Default set forth in Section 9(A)(xvi) or Section 9(A)(xvii) occurs with respect to the Company (and not solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary of the Company), then the then outstanding portion of the Maturity Principal Amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, this Note will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any Person.

(ii)Optional Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default set forth in Section 9(A)(xvi) or Section 9(A)(xvii) with respect to the Company and not solely with respect to a Subsidiary of the Company) occurs and has not been waived by the Holder, then the Holder, by notice to the Company, may declare this Note (or any portion thereof) to become due and payable on the Business Day immediately following the date of such notice for cash in an amount equal to the Event of Default Acceleration Amount.

(C)Notice of Events of Default. Promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after an Event of Default, the Company will provide written notice of such Event of Default to the Holder and the Trustee (an “Event of Default Notice”), which Event of Default Notice shall include (i) a reasonable description of the applicable Event of Default, (ii) the date on which the Event of Default occurred and (iii) the date on which the Default underlying such Event of Default initially occurred, if different than the date on which the Event of Default occurred.

(D)Default Interest. If a Default or an Event of Default occurs, then in each case, to the extent lawful, interest (“Default Interest”) will automatically accrue on the Principal Amount outstanding as of the date of such Default or Event of Default at a rate per annum equal to twelve percent (12.0%), from, and including, the date of such Default or Event of Default, as applicable, to, but excluding, the date such Default is cured and all outstanding Default Interest under this Note has been paid. Default Interest hereunder will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and will be payable in arrears on the earlier of (i) the first day of each calendar month, (ii) the date such Default is cured, (iii) any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or any date that an Event of Default Acceleration Amount is paid by the Company to the Holder, and (iv) the Maturity Date.

Section 10.Registrar and Paying Agent.

Notwithstanding Section 2.4 of the Base Indenture, the Company hereby appoints itself as the Paying Agent for this Note. In connection with this Note, all references in the Base Indenture to the Trustee as the Paying Agent (including, without limitation, the obligation of the Paying Agent to hold assets in trust under Section 2.5 of the Base Indenture), shall instead be obligations of the Company in its capacity as Paying Agent.

Section 11.Ranking.

All payments due under this Note shall rank (i) pari passu with all Other Notes and all Subsequently Purchased Notes, (ii) effectively senior to all unsecured obligations of the Company to the extent of the value of the Collateral securing the Notes for so long as the Collateral so secures the Notes in accordance with the terms hereof and (iii) senior to any Subordinated Indebtedness.

Section 12.Replacement Notes.

If the Holder of this Note claims that this Note has been mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, then the Company will issue, execute and deliver a replacement Note upon

surrender to the Company of such mutilated Note, or upon delivery to the Company of evidence of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking reasonably satisfactory to the Company. In the case of a lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note, the Company may require the Holder to provide such security or an indemnity that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company to protect the Company and to the Trustee to protect the Trustee from any loss that it may suffer if this Note is replaced.

Section 13.Notices.

Any notice or communication to the Company will be deemed to have been duly given if in writing and delivered in person or by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), electronic transmission (including e-mail) or other similar means of unsecured electronic communication or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, or to the other’s address, which initially is as follows:

The Company and each Holder hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

Section 21.Collateral Agent.

(A)Appointment; Authorization. The Holder and the Trustee, together with any successors or assigns thereof, hereby irrevocably appoint, designate and authorize High Trail Investments ON LLC as collateral agent to take such action on their behalf under the provisions of this Note, each Security Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of each Security Agreement, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 21 are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, and the Company shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any Security Agreement (or any other similar term) with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Note, any Security Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document related hereto or thereto, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Note, any Security Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document related hereto or thereto or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall act hereunder and under the Security Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the Security Documents pursuant to the direction of the Required Holders or the Trustee.

(B)Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any Security Agreement by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through its Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors and representatives, or the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors and representatives of any of its Affiliates (collectively, the “Related Parties”). The exculpatory provisions of this Section 21 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Collateral Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

(C)Exculpatory Provisions.

(i)The Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Security Agreements, and its duties shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent: (i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing or an Event of Default has occurred; (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers; and (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth in the Security Agreements, have

any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(ii)The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Collateral Agent in writing by the Company.

(iii)The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Notes, any Security Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document related hereto or thereto, (b) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (c) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (d) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Note, any Security Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document related hereto or thereto, or (e) any failure of the Company or any other party to this Note, any Security Agreements or any other agreement, instrument or document related hereto or thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Note, any Security Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document related to the hereto or thereto, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company.

(D)Reliance by Collateral Agent.

Other Holder, shall perform all of the duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder until such time as the Required Holders shall appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

(F)Non-Reliance on the Collateral Agent.

(G)Collateral Matters. The Holder irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Security Agreement (i) when all Obligations have been paid in full; (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under this Note and each other agreement, instrument or document related hereto (it being agreed and understood that the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of an officer of the Company as to the sale or other disposition of property being made in compliance with this Note and each other agreement, instrument or document related hereto); or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Holder and each Other Holder. The Collateral Agent shall have the right, in accordance with the Security Agreements to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Collateral for cash, credit or any combination thereof, and the Collateral Agent may purchase any Collateral at public or, if permitted by law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase price, may credit bid and setoff the amount of such price against the Obligations.
