CREDIT FACILITIES
Section 2.1 Advances.
From time to time during the Advance Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Xxxxxx agrees to lend to Borrower, in one or more borrowings, loans in an aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $7,500,000 (the “Funding Cap”). The advances hereunder (each an “Advance” and, collectively, the “Advances”) shall be evidenced by a single promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto
(the “Note”). Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth herein, the disbursement of each Advance hereunder shall be made upon written notice received by Lender not later than three Business Days prior to the date of
such requested Advance specifying the date of disbursement (which date shall be a Business Day), the amount of such Advance, and the third-party provider to whom such Advance will be disbursed by Borrower, together with such supporting documentation
as Lender may reasonably request. Borrower shall provide Lender with confirmation of such payment to the third-party provider within three Business Days of receipt of the Advance. Xxxxxxx borrowed hereunder and repaid or prepaid may not be
reborrowed.
4
Section 2.2 Records.
Xxxxxx shall maintain in Xxxxxx’s records an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of Borrower hereunder, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to Xxxxxx from
time to time hereunder. The entries made in such account or accounts shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of Lender to maintain such account or accounts or
any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and other amounts payable hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any
conflict between such account or accounts maintained by Lender with those maintained by Borrower pursuant to the immediately following paragraph, such account or accounts of Lender shall prevail in the absence of manifest error.
Borrower shall maintain in Xxxxxxxx’s records an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of Borrower hereunder, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to Xxxxxx from
time to time hereunder. The entries made in such account or accounts shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of Borrower to maintain such account or accounts or
any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and other amounts payable hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 2.3 Interest.
The outstanding principal amount of all Advances under this Agreement shall accrue interest at a rate equal to fifteen percent (15.0%) simple interest per annum, which accrued interest shall be due
and payable in arrears on the Maturity Date. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and charged for the actual number of days elapsed to, but excluding, the Maturity Date (or such other date on which all principal and accrued and
unpaid interest hereunder is paid in full and this Agreement, and all commitments to make Advances hereunder, is terminated). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an Event of Default, interest shall
accrue on all amounts outstanding hereunder at a rate equal to the otherwise applicable interest rate at such time plus an additional two percent (2.0%) simple interest per annum.
Section 2.4 Principal Payments.
Xxxxxxxx agrees to duly and punctually pay all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest hereunder on the Maturity Date. Borrower may voluntarily prepay the principal outstanding under
this Agreement in whole or in part at any time, without premium or penalty, together with the accrued and unpaid interest on such prepaid principal. Lender shall apply payments and prepayments under this Agreement first to accrued and unpaid interest
on the principal repaid or prepaid, then to outstanding principal and thereafter to any other amounts payable under this Agreement or any other Funding Documents.
5
Section 2.5 Payment Mechanics.
Borrower shall make each payment hereunder to Lender in immediately available funds on or prior to the day when due, in lawful money of the United States of America, at the location of Lender
specified in Section 9.3 below, or at such other place or places as Lender may designate from time to time by written notice to Borrower. If any date upon which payment is due hereunder is not a Business Day, then the payment to be made on such date
shall instead be due on the next Business Day.
Section 2.6 Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Funding Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for
any Taxes except as required by applicable Law. If Borrower is required by applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then:
(i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the amount payable by Borrower shall be increased so that after all such required deductions or withholdings are made (including
deductions or withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section), Lender receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made; and
(ii) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Entity in accordance with applicable
Law.
(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.6(a) above, Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Entity in accordance with applicable Law.
(c) Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed on or attributable to amounts
payable under this Section) paid or payable by Lender, on or with respect to an amount payable by Borrower in respect of this Agreement or any other Funding Document, together with any reasonable expenses arising in connection therewith and with
respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Entity. A certificate from Lender as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower hereby authorizes Xxxxxx to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to Borrower under any Funding Document against any amount due to Lender under this subclause (c).
6
(d) If Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which
Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund (or the amount of any credit in lieu of refund) to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under
this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit in lieu of refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Entity with respect to such
refund or credit in lieu of refund); provided that, Borrower, upon the request of Xxxxxx, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any interest, penalties, or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Entity) to Lender
in the event Lender is required to repay such refund or credit in lieu of refund to such Governmental Entity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subclause (d), in no event will Lender be required to pay any amount to Borrower pursuant
to this paragraph if the payment of such amount would place Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the
indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. Nothing in this subclause (d) shall be construed to require Lender to make available its tax returns or any other information relating to its taxes that it
deems confidential to Borrower or any other Person.
(e) If Lender (including any assignee or successor) is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Funding Document, it shall deliver
to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
In addition, Lender (including any assignee or successor), if reasonably requested by Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or
not Lender (including any assignee or successor) is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such
documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the immediately following sentence) shall not be required if in Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender (including any assignee or successor) shall deliver to Borrower whichever of IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8BEN-E,
IRS Form W-8ECI or W-8IMY is applicable, as well as any applicable supporting documentation or certifications.

SECURITY INTEREST AND COLLATERAL MATTERS
Section 3.1 Grant of Security Interest.
As collateral security for the full, prompt, complete, and final payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise) of all of the Secured Obligations and in
order to induce Lender to enter into the Funding Documents and make the Advances, Borrower hereby collaterally assigns, conveys, mortgages, pledges, and hypothecates to Lender, and hereby grants to Lender, a security interest and Lien in and on all
of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in, to, and under the following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Collateral”):
(a) all Accounts;
(b) all Equipment, Goods, Inventory, and Fixtures;
(c) all Documents, Instruments, and Chattel Paper;
(d) all Letters of Credit and Letter-of-Credit Rights;

(f) all contracts, intellectual property, and other General Intangibles, including all copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade names, and patents;
(g) all money and all deposit accounts;

products of each of the foregoing, and all accessions to, substitutions and replacements for, and rents, profits, and products of, each of the foregoing, and any and all Proceeds of any insurance, indemnity, warranty, or guaranty payable to Borrower
from time to time with respect to any of the foregoing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest and Lien provided herein shall not extend to, and the term “Collateral” shall not include, any of the following (collectively, “Excluded
Property”): (i) any permit or license or any contractual obligation entered into by Borrower, in each case not prohibited to be outstanding under the Merger Agreement, (A) that prohibits or requires the consent of any Person other than Borrower
or an Affiliate thereof which has not been obtained as a condition to the creation by Borrower of a Lien on any right, title, or interest in such permit, license, contractual obligation, or other asset or (B) to the extent that any applicable state
or federal law prohibits the creation of a Lien thereon, but only, with respect to the prohibition in (A) and (B), to the extent, and for as long as, such prohibition is not terminated or rendered unenforceable or otherwise deemed ineffective by the
UCC or any other applicable law; (ii) any “intent to use” trademark applications for which a statement of use has not been filed (but only until such statement is filed) to the extent that the grant of a security interest therein would impair the
validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark application or the resulting trademark registration under applicable United States federal law; and (iii) assets to the extent a security interest in such assets would result in material
adverse tax consequences as reasonably determined by Xxxxxxxx and Lender; provided, however, “Excluded Property” shall not include any proceeds, products, substitutions, or replacements of Excluded Property (unless such proceeds,
products, substitutions, or replacements would otherwise themselves constitute Excluded Property).
8
Section 3.2 Financing Statements.
Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements (including fixture filings) and amendments thereto that
contain the information required by Article 9 of the UCC of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment relating to the Collateral, including (i) whether Borrower is an organization, the type of organization,
and any organizational identification number issued to Borrower, and (ii) any financing or continuation statements or other documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing, or protecting the security interest granted by
Borrower hereunder, without the signature of Borrower where permitted by law, including the filing of a financing statement describing the Collateral as “all assets now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower or in which Borrower otherwise has
rights, and all proceeds of the foregoing”. Xxxxxxxx agrees to provide all information described in the immediately preceding sentence to Xxxxxx promptly upon request by Xxxxxx. Xxxxxxxx hereby further authorizes Lender to file with the United States
Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office (and any successor office and any similar office in any United States state or other country) this Agreement, an intellectual property security agreement, or other documents for the
purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing, or protecting the security interest granted by Borrower hereunder, without the signature of Borrower where permitted by law, and naming Borrower as debtor and Xxxxxx as secured party.
Section 3.3 Further Assurances as to Security Matters.
Borrower shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to Lender such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers, and instruments, as
Lender may in its reasonable discretion deem necessary or appropriate in order to perfect, preserve, and protect the security interest in the Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to Lender hereunder, and enable Xxxxxx to
exercise and enforce its rights, powers, and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral, including the filing of any financing statements, continuation statements, and other documents under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any
jurisdiction with respect to the security interest created hereby, and the filing of intellectual property security agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, all in form reasonably
satisfactory to Lender in such offices wherever required by law to perfect, continue, and maintain a valid, enforceable, first-priority security interest in the Collateral as provided herein, subject to Permitted Liens, and to preserve the other
rights and interests granted to Xxxxxx xxxxxxxxx, as against third parties, with respect to the Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to applicable law, Borrower shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file, or
refile and/or deliver to Lender from time to time upon request by Lender such lists, schedules, descriptions, and designations of the Collateral, statements, copies of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices,
schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports, and other assurances or instruments as Lender shall reasonably
request. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of Borrower, such suits and proceedings as Lender may deem necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the
security interest in, or the perfection thereof, in the Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of Xxxxxxxx.
