		2.	UNCOMMITTED line of credit amount and terms



		2.1	Uncommitted Line of Credit Amount.



		(a)	During the availability period described below, the Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, provide one or more loans
(“Loans”) under an uncommitted line of credit to the Borrower (this “Uncommitted Line of Credit”).
The amount of this Uncommitted Line of Credit shall be no more than Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) (the “Facility
Limit”).





		(b)	This Uncommitted Line of Credit is an uncommitted revolving line of credit, and each Loan or other extension of credit issued
hereunder shall be made at the sole and absolute discretion of the Bank. During the availability period, the Borrower may repay
principal amounts and, to the extent agreed to by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion, reborrow them. The Borrower agrees
not to permit the principal balance outstanding under this Uncommitted Line of Credit to exceed the Facility Limit. If the Borrower
exceeds this limit, the Borrower will immediately pay the excess to the Bank. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS
AGREEMENT IS NOT A CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENT BY THE BANK TO MAKE ANY LOANS OR EXTEND ANY CREDIT TO THE BORROWER UNDER THIS UNCOMMITTED
LINE OF CREDIT OR OTHERWISE. THE BANK MAY AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT PREJUDICING ITS RIGHTS, DEMAND PAYMENT OF ANY OR ALL LOANS MADE
UNDER THIS UNCOMMITTED LINE OF CREDIT, REDUCE THE FACILITY LIMIT AND/OR TERMINATE THIS UNCOMMITTED LINE OF CREDIT AS TO ANY FUTURE
ADVANCES OR EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE. THE BORROWER FURTHER AGREES THAT NO PAYMENT OF ANY FEE TO THE BANK, NO
CONDUCT OR COURSE OF DEALING BETWEEN THE BANK AND THE BORROWER, PAST OR FUTURE, AND NO WRITTEN OR ORAL





    2 


     


    

STATEMENT, PROMISE OR REPRESENTATION BY ANY
OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE OF THE BANK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO MAKE ANY LOAN OR OTHER EXTENSION OF CREDIT) SHALL LIMIT THE
BANK’S RIGHT TO DECLINE TO MAKE ANY SUCH LOAN OR SUCH EXTENSION OF CREDIT AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE MAKING THEREOF OR TO
DEMAND SUCH PAYMENT AT ANY TIME. TO THE EXTENT ANY LOANS OR OTHER EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT ARE MADE HEREUNDER, SUCH LOANS AND EXTENSIONS
OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.




2.2          Availability
Period. The Borrower agrees to pay (a) all outstanding amounts owing under each Loan (including principal, interest or other
charges outstanding with respect to such Loan) on the earlier of (i) the maturity date for such Loan as agreed to by the Bank,
which, if not specified by the Bank, shall be the Facility Expiration Date (defined below) and (ii) the date on which the Bank
makes demand therefor (each such date, a “Loan Maturity Date”) and (b) all outstanding amounts owing under this
Uncommitted Line of Credit (including principal, interest or other charges outstanding) on the earlier of (i) the date on which
the Bank makes demand therefor, and (ii) January 27, 2022 (such date, the “Facility Expiration Date”; the period
from the date hereof through the Facility Expiration Date, the “availability period”).


		2.3	Repayment Terms.



		(a)	The Borrower will pay interest on any LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Loan on the first banking day of each month until payment in
full of all principal outstanding under this facility. The Borrower will pay interest on any LIBOR Rate Loan at the end of the
applicable interest period; provided that no interest period shall expire later than the Loan Maturity Date for the applicable
Loan; provided further that if any applicable interest period exceeds three (3) months, the applicable interest must be paid at
the end of the third month of such interest period as well as at the end of the applicable interest period. The amount of each
interest payment shall be the amount of accrued interest on the Uncommitted Line of Credit as of the interest payment date or such
earlier accrual date as indicated on the billing statement for such interest payment.



		(b)	Accrued and unpaid interest on each Loan shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the date that such Loan is payable.



		(c)	The Borrower will repay in full all principal, interest or other charges outstanding with respect to each Loan no later than
the applicable Loan Maturity Date for such Loan and will repay in full all principal, interest or other charges outstanding under
this Agreement no later than the Facility Expiration Date.



		(d)	The Borrower may prepay the Uncommitted Line of Credit in full or in part at any time, together with any amounts payable under
Section 2.4(d). The prepayment will be applied to the most remote payment of principal due under this Agreement.





    3 


     


    

		2.4	Interest Rate.



		(a)	Each Loan shall, if agreed to by the Bank, be a LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Loan, a LIBOR Rate Loan or shall bear interest at
the rate agreed to by the Bank and the Borrower at the time such Loan is made.



		(b)	A “LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Loan” is a loan that bears interest equal to the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate
plus 1.25 percentage points. The “LIBOR Daily Floating Rate” is a fluctuating rate of interest which can change
on each banking day. The rate will be adjusted on each banking day to equal the London Interbank Offered Rate (or a comparable
or successor rate which is approved by the Bank) for U.S. Dollar deposits for delivery on the date in question for a one month
term beginning on that date. The Bank will use the London Interbank Offered Rate as published by Bloomberg (or other commercially
available source providing quotations of such rate as selected by the Bank from time to time) as determined at approximately 11:00
a.m. London time two (2) London Banking Days prior to the date in question, as adjusted from time to time in the Bank’s sole
and absolute discretion for reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. If such rate is
not available at such time for any reason, then the rate will be determined by such alternate method as reasonably selected by
the Bank. A "London Banking Day" is a day on which banks in London are open for business and dealing in offshore dollars.
If at any time the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate is less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.



		(c)	A “LIBOR Rate Loan” is a Loan that bears interest equal to the LIBOR Rate plus 1.25 percentage points. No
more than ten (10) LIBOR Rate Loans may be outstanding at any one time.



The “LIBOR Rate” means the interest
rate determined by the following formula. (All amounts in the calculation will be determined by the Bank as of the first day of
the interest period.)


	LIBOR Rate =   	LIBOR	 
		(1.00 - Reserve Percentage)	 




Where,


		(i)	“LIBOR” means, for any applicable interest period agreed to by the Bank, the rate per annum equal to the
London Interbank Offered Rate (or a comparable or successor rate which is approved by the Bank), as published by Bloomberg (or
other commercially available source providing quotations of such rate as selected by the Bank from time to time) at approximately
11:00 a.m. London time two (2) London Banking Days before the commencement of the interest period, for U.S. Dollar deposits (for
delivery on the first day of such interest period) with a term equivalent to such interest period. If such rate is not available
at such time for any reason, then the rate for that interest period will be determined by such alternate method as selected by
the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion. A “London Banking Day” is a day on which the Bank and





    4 


     


    

banks in London are open for business and dealing
in offshore dollars. If at any time LIBOR is less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.




		(ii)	“Reserve Percentage” means the total of the maximum reserve percentages for determining the reserves to
be maintained by member banks of the Federal Reserve System for Eurocurrency Liabilities, as defined in Federal Reserve Board Regulation
D, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of one percent. The percentage will be expressed as a decimal, and will include, but not
be limited to, marginal, emergency, supplemental, special, and other reserve percentages.





		(d)	The election of LIBOR Rates shall be subject to the following terms and requirements: The interest period during which the
LIBOR Rate will be in effect will be one (1), two (2) or three (3) months, as agreed to by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion.
The first day of the interest period must be a day other than a Saturday or a Sunday on which banks are open for business in New
York and London and dealing in offshore dollars (a “LIBOR Banking Day”). The last day of the interest period
and the actual number of days during the interest period will be determined by the Bank using the practices of the London inter-bank
market (as determined by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion). The Borrower shall irrevocably request a LIBOR Rate Loan
no later than 12:00 noon Eastern time on the LIBOR Banking Day preceding the day on which the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate will
be set, as specified above. For example, if there are no intervening holidays or weekend days in any of the relevant locations,
the request must be made at least three days before the LIBOR Rate takes effect. Each prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan, whether
voluntary, upon the Bank’s demand, by reason of acceleration, maturity or otherwise,
will be accompanied by the amount of accrued interest on the amount prepaid and a prepayment fee as described below. A “prepayment”
is a payment of an amount on a date earlier than the scheduled payment date for such amount as required by this Agreement. The
prepayment fee shall be in an amount sufficient to compensate the Bank for any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result
of the prepayment, including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment
of funds obtained by it to maintain such Portion or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.
The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by the Bank in connection with the foregoing. For purposes
of this paragraph, the Bank shall be deemed to have funded such Portion by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable
interbank market, whether or not such Portion was in fact so funded.







    5 


     


    

		3.	LOAN ADMINISTRATION AND FEES



		3.1	Collection of Payments; Payments Generally.



		(a)	Payments will be made by debit to a deposit account, if direct debit is provided for in this Agreement or is otherwise authorized
by the Borrower. For payments not made by direct debit, payments will be made by mail to the address shown on the Borrower’s
statement, or by such other method as may be permitted by the Bank.



		(b)	Each disbursement by the Bank and each payment by the Borrower will be evidenced by records kept by the Bank which will, absent
manifest error, be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between the Borrower and the
Bank.



		(c)	All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim,
defense, recoupment or setoff.



3.2          Requests
for Credit; Equal Access by all Borrowers. Each Borrower will be liable for all extensions of credit made under this Agreement
to any other Borrower.


3.3          Borrower’s
Instructions. Subject to the terms, conditions and procedures stated elsewhere in this Agreement, the Bank may honor instructions
for advances or repayments and any other instructions under this Agreement given by the Borrower (if an individual), or by any
one of the individuals the Bank reasonably believes is authorized to sign loan agreements on behalf of the Borrower, or any other
individual(s) designated by any one of such authorized signers (each an “Authorized Individual”). The Bank may
honor any such instructions made by any one of the Authorized Individuals, whether such instructions are given in writing or by
telephone, telefax or Internet and intranet websites designated by the Bank with respect to separate products or services offered
by the Bank.


		3.4	Direct Debit.



		(a)	The Borrower agrees that on the due date of any amount due under this Agreement, the Bank will debit the amount due from deposit
account number 3132020158 owned by Middlesex Water Company, or such other of the Borrower’s accounts with the Bank as designated
in writing by the Borrower (the “Designated Account”). Should there be insufficient funds in the Designated
Account to pay all such sums when due, the full amount of such deficiency shall be immediately due and payable by the Borrower.





		(b)	The Borrower may terminate this direct debit arrangement at any time by sending written notice to the Bank at the address specified
at the end of this Agreement.





3.5          Banking
Days. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, a banking day is a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which
commercial banks are authorized to close, or are in fact closed, in the state where the Bank’s lending




    6 


     


    

office is located, and, if such day
relates to amounts bearing interest at an offshore rate (if any), means any such day on which dealings in dollar deposits are conducted
among banks in the offshore dollar interbank market. All payments and disbursements which would be due or which are received on
a day which is not a banking day will be due or applied, as applicable, on the next banking day.




3.6          Additional
Costs. The Borrower will pay the Bank, on demand, for the Bank’s costs or losses arising from any Change in Law which
are allocated to this Agreement or any credit outstanding under this Agreement.  The allocation will be made as determined
by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion.  The costs include, without limitation, the following:




		(a)	any reserve or deposit requirements (excluding any reserve requirement already reflected in the calculation of the interest
rate in this Agreement); and





		(b)	any capital or liquidity requirements relating to the Bank’s assets and commitments for credit.





“Change in Law” means the occurrence,
after the date of this Agreement, of the adoption or taking effect of any new or changed law, rule, regulation or treaty, or the
issuance of any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any governmental authority; provided
that (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives issued
in connection with that Act, and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements,
the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case
pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law,” regardless of the date enacted, adopted
or issued.




3.7          Interest
Calculation. All interest and fees, if any, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.
This results in more interest or a higher fee than if a 365-day year is used. Installments of principal which are not paid when
due under this Agreement shall continue to bear interest until paid. To the extent that any calculation of interest or any fee
required to be paid under this Agreement shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Agreement.


3.8          Event
Rate. Upon the occurrence of any Event or after maturity or after judgment has been rendered on any obligation under this Agreement,
all amounts outstanding under this Agreement, including any unpaid interest, fees, or costs, will at the option of the Bank in
its sole and absolute discretion bear interest at a rate which is 2.0 percentage points higher than the rate of interest otherwise
provided under this Agreement. This may result in compounding of interest. This will not constitute a waiver of any Acceleration
Event.




    7 


     


    

3.9          Taxes.
If any payments to the Bank under this Agreement are made from outside the United States, the Borrower will not deduct any foreign
taxes from any payments it makes to the Bank. If any such taxes are imposed on or with respect to any payments made by or on account
of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor (including payments under this paragraph), the Borrower will pay the taxes and
will also pay to the Bank, at the time interest is paid, any additional amount which the Bank specifies as necessary to preserve
the after-tax yield the Bank would have received if such taxes had not been imposed. The Borrower will confirm that it has paid
the taxes by giving the Bank official tax receipts (or notarized copies) within thirty (30) days after the due date.

outstanding) shall automatically become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any

		8.	ENFORCING THIS AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS



8.1          Governing
Law. Except to the extent that any law of the United States may apply, this Agreement shall be governed and interpreted according
to the laws of New York (the “Governing Law State”), without regard to any choice of law, rules or principles
to the contrary. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit or otherwise affect any rights or remedies of the Bank under
federal law.


8.2          Venue
and Jurisdiction. The Borrower agrees that any action or suit against the Bank arising out of or relating to this Agreement
shall be filed in federal court or state court located in the Governing Law State. The Borrower agrees that the Bank shall not
be deemed to have waived its rights to enforce this section by filing an action or suit against the Borrower or any Obligor in
a venue outside of the Governing Law State. If the Bank does commence an action or suit arising out of or relating to this Agreement,
the Borrower agrees that the case may be filed in federal court or state court in the Governing Law State. The Bank reserves the
right to commence an action or suit in any other jurisdiction where any Borrower, any other Obligor, or any Collateral has any
presence or is located. The Borrower consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in such forum selected by the Bank and waives
any right to contest jurisdiction and venue and the convenience of any such forum. The provisions of this section are material
inducements to the Bank’s acceptance of this Agreement.


8.3          Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement is binding on the Borrower’s and the Bank’s successors and assignees. The Borrower
agrees that it may not assign this Agreement without the Bank’s prior consent. The Bank may sell participations in or assign
this loan and the related loan documents, and may exchange information about the Borrower and any other Obligor (including, without
limitation, any information regarding any hazardous substances) with actual or potential participants or assignees. If a participation
is sold or the loan is assigned, the purchaser will have the right of set-off against the Borrower.


8.4          Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH




    13 


     


    

OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY
OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT
OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION
AND (c) CERTIFIES THAT THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE.


8.5          Severability;
Waivers. If any part of this Agreement is not enforceable, the rest of the Agreement may be enforced. The Bank retains all
rights, even if it makes a loan after the occurrence of an Event. If the Bank waives an Acceleration Event, it may enforce a later
Acceleration Event. Any consent or waiver under this Agreement must be in writing.


		8.6	Expenses.



		(a)	The Borrower shall pay to the Bank immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expended or incurred by the Bank in connection with (i) the negotiation and preparation
of this Agreement and any related agreements, the Bank’s continued administration of this Agreement and such related agreements,
and the preparation of any amendments and waivers related to this Agreement or such related agreements, and (ii) costs or expenses
required to be paid by the Borrower or any other Obligor that are paid, incurred or advanced by the Bank.





		(b)	The Borrower will indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from any loss, liability, damages, judgments, and costs of any kind
relating to or arising directly or indirectly out of (i) this Agreement or any document required hereunder, (ii) any credit extended
or committed by the Bank to the Borrower hereunder and (iii) any litigation or proceeding related to or arising out of this Agreement,
any such document, or any such credit, including, without limitation, any act resulting from (A) the Bank complying with instructions
the Bank reasonably believes are made by any Authorized Individual and (B) the Bank’s reliance on any Communication executed
using an Electronic Signature, or in the form of an Electronic Record, that the Bank reasonably believes is made by any Authorized
Individual. This paragraph will survive this Agreement’s termination, and will benefit the Bank and its officers, employees,
and agents.





		(c)	The Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for any reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Bank in connection
with (a) the enforcement or preservation of the Bank’s rights and remedies and/or the collection of any obligations of the
Borrower which become due to the Bank and in connection with any “workout” or restructuring, and (b) the prosecution
or defense of any action in any way related to this Agreement the credit provided hereunder or any related agreements, including
without limitation, any action for declaratory relief, whether incurred at the trial or appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding
or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation,
any





    14 


     


    

adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion
brought by the Bank or any other person) relating to the Borrower or any other person or entity.




		8.7	Joint and Several Liability.



		(a)	Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable to the Bank for the payment of all obligations arising under this
Agreement and that such liability is independent of the obligations of the other Borrowers. Each obligation, promise, covenant,
representation and warranty in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made by, and be binding upon, each Borrower, unless
this Agreement expressly provides otherwise. The Bank may bring an action against any Borrower, whether an action is brought against
the other Borrowers.





		(b)	Each Borrower agrees that any release which may be given by the Bank to the other Borrowers or any other Obligor will not release
such Borrower from its obligations under this Agreement.





		(c)	Each Borrower waives any right to assert against the Bank any defense, setoff, counterclaim, or claims which such Borrower
may have against the other Borrowers or any other party liable to the Bank for the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.





		(d)	Each Borrower waives any defense by reason of any other Borrower’s or any other person’s defense, disability, or
release from liability. The Bank can exercise its rights against each Borrower even if any other Borrower or any other person no
longer is liable because of a statute of limitations or for other reasons.





		(e)	Each Borrower agrees that it is solely responsible for keeping itself informed as to the financial condition of the other Borrowers
and of all circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment. Each Borrower waives any right it may have to require the Bank
to disclose to such Borrower any information which the Bank may now or hereafter acquire concerning the financial condition of
the other Borrowers.





		(f)	Each Borrower waives all rights to notices of Events or nonperformance by any other Borrower under this Agreement. Each Borrower
further waives all rights to notices of the existence or the creation of new indebtedness by any other Borrower and all rights
to any other notices to any party liable on any of the credit extended under this Agreement.







    15 


     


    

		(g)	The Borrowers represent and warrant to the Bank that each will derive benefit, directly and indirectly, from the collective
administration and availability of credit under this Agreement. The Borrowers agree that the Bank will not be required to inquire
as to the disposition by any Borrower of funds disbursed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.





		(h)	Until all obligations of the Borrowers to the Bank under this Agreement have been paid in full and the facility provided by
the Bank under this Agreement has been terminated, each Borrower waives any right of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification
and contribution (contractual, statutory or otherwise), which such Borrower may now or hereafter have against any other Borrower
with respect to the indebtedness incurred under this Agreement.





		(i)	Each Borrower waives any right to require the Bank to proceed against any other Borrower or any other person; proceed against
or exhaust any security; or pursue any other remedy. Further, each Borrower consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any
action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of the Borrowers under this Agreement or which, but for this provision,
might operate as a discharge of the Borrowers.





8.8          Set-Off.
Upon and after the occurrence of a Specified Event under this Agreement, (a) the Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank at any time
without notice and whether or not the Bank shall have declared any amount owing by the Borrower to be due and payable, to set off
against, and to apply to the payment of, the Borrower’s indebtedness and obligations to the Bank under this Agreement and
all related agreements, whether matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, any and all amounts owing
by the Bank to the Borrower, and in the case of deposits, whether general or special (except trust and escrow accounts), time or
demand and however evidenced, and (b) pending any such action, to hold such amounts as collateral to secure such indebtedness and
obligations of the Borrower to the Bank and to return as unpaid for insufficient funds any and all checks and other items drawn
against any deposits so held as the Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect. The Borrower hereby grants to the Bank
a security interest in all deposits and accounts maintained with the Bank to secure the payment of all such indebtedness and obligations
of the Borrower to the Bank.


8.9          One
Agreement. This Agreement and any related security or other agreements required by this Agreement constitute the entire agreement
between the Borrower and the Bank with respect to each credit subject hereto and supersede all prior negotiations, communications,
discussions and correspondence, oral or written, concerning the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between this
Agreement and any other agreements required by this Agreement, this Agreement will prevail.


8.10       Notices.
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or in another agreement between the Bank and the Borrower, all notices required under
this Agreement shall be personally delivered or sent by first class mail, postage




    16 


     


    

prepaid, or by overnight courier, to
the addresses on the signature page of this Agreement, or sent by facsimile to the fax number(s) listed on the signature page,
or to such other addresses as the Bank and the Borrower may specify from time to time in writing (any such notice a “Written
Notice”). Written Notices shall be effective (i) if mailed, upon the earlier of receipt or five (5) days after deposit
in the U.S. mail, first class, postage prepaid, (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted, or (iii) if hand-delivered, by courier or
otherwise (including telegram, lettergram or mailgram), when delivered. In lieu of a Written Notice, notices and/or communications
from the Bank to the Borrower may, to the extent permitted by law, be delivered electronically (i) by transmitting the communication
to the electronic address provided by the Borrower or to such other electronic address as the Borrower may specify from time to
time in writing, or (ii) by posting the communication on a website and sending the Borrower a notice to the Borrower’s postal
address or electronic address telling the Borrower that the communication has been posted, its location, and providing instructions
on how to view it (any such notice, an “Electronic Notice”). Electronic Notices shall be effective when the
communication, or a notice advising of its posting to a website, is sent to the Borrower’s electronic address.


8.11       Headings.
Article and paragraph headings are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or meaning of any provisions of this
Agreement.


8.12       Amendments.
This Agreement may only be amended by a writing signed by the parties hereto; which, to the extent expressly agreed to by the Bank
in its discretion, may include being amended by an Electronic Record signed by the parties hereto using Electronic Signatures pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement.


8.13       Amendment
and Restatement of Prior Agreement. This Agreement is an amendment and restatement, in its entirety, of the Letter Agreement
entered into as of September 25, 2015, between the Bank and the Borrower, and any indebtedness outstanding thereunder shall be
deemed to be outstanding under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a repayment or novation of the indebtedness,
or to release or otherwise adversely affect any lien, mortgage or security interest securing such indebtedness or any rights of
the Bank against any guarantor, surety or other party primarily or secondarily liable for such indebtedness.


8.14       Electronic
Records and Signatures. This Agreement and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request,
statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement (each a “Communication”), including Communications
required to be in writing, may, if agreed by the Bank, be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic
Signatures, including, without limitation, facsimile and/or .pdf. The Borrower agrees that any Electronic Signature (including,
without limitation, facsimile or .pdf) on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on the Borrower to the
same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with the terms thereof to the
same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered to the Bank. Any Communication may be executed in as many
counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and
the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use
or acceptance by the Bank of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned
into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another




    17 


     


    

format, for transmission, delivery
and/or retention. The Bank may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic
Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of the Bank’s business,
and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy,
shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper
record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Bank is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature
in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Bank pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without
limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Bank has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Bank shall be entitled to
rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Obligor without further verification and (b) upon
the request of the Bank any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed, original counterpart. For purposes
hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to
them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.


8.15       Limitation
of Interest and Other Charges. If, at any time, the rate of interest, together with all amounts which constitute interest and
which are reserved, charged or taken by the Bank as compensation for fees, services or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating
or collection of the loan evidenced hereby, shall be deemed by any competent court of law, governmental agency or tribunal to exceed
the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by the Bank to the Borrower under applicable law, then, during such time as
such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate
that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal. As used herein, the
term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there
is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement shall be governed by such new
law as of its effective date.
