TERM LOAN, GUARANTEE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT


 


This TERM LOAN, GUARANTEE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
is dated as of October 7, 2022, and agreed to by and among Dragonfly Energy Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Borrower”),
Dragonfly Energy Holdings Corp. (f/k/a Chardan NexTech Acquisition 2 Corp.), a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), the
other Credit Parties from time to time party hereto, and ALTER DOMUS (US) LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as agent (in such
capacity, together with its successors and assigns, “Agent”) for the lenders set forth on Schedule B attached
hereto and party hereto (each herein referred to as a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”).


 


RECITALS


 


A.           The
Credit Parties desire that Borrower obtain the Term Loans described herein from the Lenders and the Lenders are willing to provide the
Term Loans all in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.


 


B.            Capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in Schedule A and, for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, the rules of construction set forth in Schedule A shall govern. All schedules, attachments, addenda and exhibits
hereto, or expressly identified to this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together with this Agreement, constitute
but a single agreement.


 


AGREEMENT


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises
and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


1.            AMOUNT
AND TERMS OF CREDIT


 


1.1          Term
Loan.


 


(a)            Each
Lender agrees severally, but not jointly, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, to make to the Borrower an advance
(each, a “Term Loan”; collectively, the “Term Loans”, the “Loans” or the “Loan”)
on the Closing Date in the principal amount equal to such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. If requested by a Lender, such Lender’s
Term Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note (each a “Term Note”) duly executed and delivered by the Borrower
prior to the funding of such Term Loan in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, and be repayable in accordance with the terms
of such Term Note and this Agreement. Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to the Agent for the pro rata
benefit of the Lenders in consecutive quarterly installments in the amounts set forth on Schedule B, due and payable on the first
Business Day of each calendar quarter beginning with the first quarter indicated on Schedule B (each such date, a “Payment
Date”), and a payment of the entire outstanding balance of the Loan on the Stated Maturity Date. Once repaid, any amount borrowed
under the Term Loan Commitment of each Lender may not be re-borrowed. Subject to Section 1.2, all amounts owed hereunder with
respect to the Term Loans shall be paid in full no later than the Maturity Date.


 






    1


     


    

 


(b)            The
Borrower shall deliver to Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date (or such later date as Administrative Agent
may agree in its sole discretion), an executed Notice of Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit L (a “Notice of Borrowing”),
executed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower and including such certifications as may be required under Section 2 hereof, the requested
date of the borrowing (which shall be the Closing Date), the amount of the borrowing (which shall not exceed the aggregate Term Loan Commitments
of all Lenders), and wire instructions for the account of the Borrower to which proceeds of the Loans should be sent. Following receipt
of a Notice of Borrowing, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its pro rata share of the borrowing. Each Lender
shall make the amount of its Loan available to Agent in immediately available funds by wire transfer to Agent's account (as provided in
writing by Agent) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. Upon
receipt of all request funds, Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower by wire transfer in like funds as received
by Agent in accordance with the instructions provided by (and reasonably acceptable to) Agent by the Borrower. In the event that the Loans
are advanced directly from any Lender to the Borrower, unless the Borrower has notified Agent in writing (which notification may be by
email) by not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date that it has not received the funds equal to the Term Loan
Commitment of such Lender pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing, Agent shall deem such Term Loan(s) funded and make the appropriate
recordations in the Register.


 


1.2           Term
and Prepayment.


 


(a)            Upon
the Maturity Date of the Loan, Borrower shall pay to Agent (i) for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, all outstanding principal
and accrued but unpaid interest on the Loan and (ii) all other Obligations relating to the Loan then due to or incurred by Agent
or the Lenders.


 


(b)            Borrower
shall have the right upon fifteen (15) calendar days’ prior written notice to Agent (or such shorter period as the Agent may agree
in its sole discretion), to make a voluntary prepayment (a “Voluntary Prepayment”) of the principal amount of the Term
Loans then outstanding, in whole or in part. If the Borrower elects to prepay the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 1.2(b) or
otherwise, or if the Term Loans are mandatorily prepaid in whole or in part pursuant to any other clause of this Section 1.2
(each, a “Mandatory Prepayment” and together with any Voluntary Prepayment, the “Prepayments”),
the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a prepayment fee as follows: (i) in the case of any Prepayment
(other than (x) under Section 1.2(c) in respect of a Casualty Event only, (y) under Section 1.2(f))
or (z) under Section 1.2(e)) made prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, 5% of the principal Loan amount
being prepaid on the date of such Prepayment; (ii) in the case of any Prepayment (other than (x) under Section 1.2(c) in
respect of a Casualty Event only, (y) under Section 1.2(f) or (z) under Section 1.2(e)) made on
or after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 3% of the principal Loan amount
being prepaid on the date of such Prepayment; (iii) in the case of any Prepayment (other than (x) under Section 1.2(c) in
respect of a Casualty Event only, (y) under Section 1.2(f) or (z) under Section 1.2(e)) made on
or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 1% of the principal Loan amount
being prepaid on the date of such Prepayment; and (iv) in the case of any Prepayment made on or after the third anniversary of the
Closing Date, 0% of the principal Loan amount being prepaid on the date of such Prepayment. Each Lender shall have the right in its sole
discretion to decline any Mandatory Prepayment in accordance with Section 1.2(h) below.


 






    2


     


    

 


(c)            Asset
Sales and Casualty Events. If the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds received by the
Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries (not including Excluded Subsidiaries) that is in connection with any Asset Sale or Casualty Event
and all other Asset Sales and Casualty Events occurring during any Fiscal Year (other than Asset Sales permitted under Section 5.4(a),
(b), (d), (e), (g), or (n)) exceeds $750,000, then not later than five (5) Business
Days following the receipt of such excess Net Cash Proceeds, Credit Parties shall make Mandatory Prepayments of the Obligations to be
applied thereto in accordance with Section 1.8 in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that
such Net Cash Proceeds shall not be required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment on such date to the extent that (x) no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and (y) Credit Parties have delivered an Officers’
Certificate to the Agent on or prior to such date stating that such Net Cash Proceeds are expected to be reinvested in capital assets
useful in the business of the Credit Parties within twelve (12) months following the date of such Asset Sale or Casualty Event (which
Officers’ Certificate shall set forth the estimates of the proceeds to be so expended); provided, that if all or any portion of
such Net Cash Proceeds is not so reinvested within such twelve (12)-month period (or such longer period as the Agent may agree
in its sole discretion), such unused portion shall be applied on the last day
of such period as a Mandatory Prepayment as provided in this Section 1.2(c); provided, further, that if the property subject
to such Asset Sale or such Casualty Event constituted Collateral, then all property purchased with the Net Cash Proceeds thereof pursuant
to this subsection shall be made subject to the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement in favor of the Agent for its benefit and the
benefit of the Lenders in accordance with Sections 3.20 and 3.27. Nothing contained in this Section 1.2(c) shall
permit any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries to effect any Asset Sale other than in accordance with Section 5.4.


 


(d)            Debt
Issuance. Not later than one (1) Business Day following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Debt Issuance by the Credit
Parties or any of their Subsidiaries, at the election of Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders), Borrower shall make
Mandatory Prepayments of the Obligations to be applied thereto in accordance with Section 1.8 in an aggregate amount equal
to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds. The provisions of this Section 1.2(d) shall not be an implied consent to any such
issuance otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall provide written notice to Agent of any Debt Issuance no less
than five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such Debt Issuance with a reference to this clause (d) and a calculation of
the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, and upon receipt thereof Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the contents of such notice.


 






    3


     


    

 


(e)             Equity
Issuance. Not later than three (3) Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Equity Issuance, Borrower
shall make Mandatory Prepayments of the Obligations to be applied thereto in accordance with Section 1.8 in an aggregate amount
equal to 25% of such Net Cash Proceeds. The provisions of this Section 1.2(e) shall not be an implied consent to any
such issuance otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.


 


(f)             Prepayments
from Excess Cash Flow. On the date that the Borrower’s financial statements are required to be delivered to Agent under Section 4.1
for the periods ending December 31 of each calendar year, beginning with the financial statements for the period ending December 31,
2023, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate (the “Excess Cash Flow Certificate”), executed by a Responsible Officer
of Borrower, to Agent which shall set forth the calculation of Excess Cash Flow for such period and irrevocably offer to prepay the Obligations
in an amount equal to (x) (A) if the Senior Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.00:1.00, fifty percent (50%) of Excess Cash Flow
and (B) if the Senior Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 3.00:1.00, twenty-five percent (25%) of Excess Cash Flow, less
(y) all Voluntary Prepayments made during such calendar year on the Term Loans. The Borrower shall make any Prepayment under this
clause (f) on the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date that Borrower’s financial statements are required
to be delivered to Agent under Section 4.1 for the period ending December 31 of each calendar year. Excess Cash Flow
for calendar year shall be calculated on the basis of the financial statements delivered to Agent pursuant to the Section 4.1
for period ending on the last day of such calendar year. Each Lender may accept or reject the offer to prepay the Obligations made pursuant
to this Section 1.2(f) by causing a written notice of such acceptance or rejection to be delivered to Agent on or before
11:00 a.m. New York City time two Business Days prior to the date the Prepayment is due. A failure by a Lender to respond to an offer
to prepay made pursuant to this Section 1.2(f) on or before such date shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance of
such offer. All such prepayments from Excess Cash Flow shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.8.


 


(g)            [Reserved.]


 


(h)            Lender
Option to Decline Prepayment. With respect to any Mandatory Prepayment required
pursuant to this Section 1.2, any Lender, at its option, may elect not to accept such prepayment as provided below. The Borrower
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Agent of any event giving rise to a prepayment under Section 1.2 no
later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall
specify the expected date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed estimated calculation of the amount of such prepayment
that is required to be made under this Section 1.2 (the “Prepayment Amount”). The Agent will promptly notify
each Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice so received from the Borrower, including the date on which such prepayment is
expected to be made by the Borrower (the “Prepayment Date”). Any Lender may decline to accept all or any portion of
its share of any such prepayment (any such Lender, a “Declining Lender”) by providing written notice to the Agent no
later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time two (2) Business Days prior to the scheduled Prepayment Date. If any Lender does not
give a notice to the Agent on or prior to such time that it declines to accept the applicable prepayment, then such Lender will be deemed
to have accepted such prepayment. On any Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Prepayment Amount including the portion thereof allocable
to Declining Lenders, in each case for such Prepayment Date, shall be paid to the Agent by the Borrower and applied by the Agent ratably
to prepay the applicable Loan owing to Lenders (other than Declining Lenders) in the manner described in Section 1.8 for such
prepayment. The portion of such Prepayment Amount that was allocated to any Declining Lender shall be applied pro rata to the Lenders
who have not declined their share of such Prepayment Amount.

1.3           Use
of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan (i) to refinance on the Closing Date, prior Indebtedness, (ii) to
support the Combination, (iii) for working capital purposes and other corporate purposes, and (iv) to pay any fees associated
with transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the transactions described in the foregoing
clauses (i) and (ii).


 


1.4           Single
Loan. The Loan and all of the other Obligations shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured by all of the Collateral.


 


1.5           Interest.


 


(a)            The
outstanding balance of the Loan shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin. All
computations of interest on the Loan shall be made by Agent on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year, in each case for
the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. In no event will Agent charge interest at a rate
that exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate. For the avoidance of doubt, no date of payment shall be included in any interest computation provided
such payment is received on or before 1:00 p.m. New York city time.


 


(b)            Borrower
shall pay interest to Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders on the outstanding balance of the Loan on a quarterly basis. Interest
shall be payable on the balance of the Loan (i) quarterly in arrears and shall be due on the first Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter,
(ii) on the Maturity Date of the Loan, and (iii) if any interest accrues or remains payable after the Maturity Date of the Loan,
upon demand by Agent. For each Payment Date from the Closing Date until and including October 1, 2024, interest shall be payable
partly in cash and payable partly in-kind at a rate per annum equal to Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin, with the
portion payable in kind at the Applicable PIK Rate which shall be capitalized, compounded and thereby increase the outstanding principal
amount of the Loan on a quarterly basis on each such Payment Date . For each Payment Date occurring on and after January 1, 2025
(for the avoidance of doubt, including all interest accruing for the period beginning October 1, 2024 and ending December 31,
2024) , all interest shall be payable in cash at a rate per annum equal to Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin.


 






    5


     


    

 


(c)            Effective
upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, the interest rate applicable
to the Loan shall automatically be increased by two percent (2.0%) per annum (such increased rate, the “Default Rate”),
and all outstanding Obligations, including accrued but unpaid interest (to the extent permitted under applicable law), shall continue
to accrue interest from the date of such Event of Default until the earlier of (x) the date on which such Obligations are paid in
full and (y) the date on which such Event of Default ceases to be continuing, at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations.


 


(d)            If
any payment to the Agent or any Lender under this Agreement becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such Payment Date
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.


 


(e)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.5, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that
the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”),
then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful
Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower
shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent for the pro
rata benefit of the Lenders is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest rate payable hereunder been
(but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In
no event shall the total interest received by Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount
that Agent could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful
Rate.


 


1.6           Fees.


 


Borrower agrees to pay to Agent:


 


(a)            for
the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, the fees set forth in that certain Fee Letter, dated as of May 15, 2022, by and among the Lenders
and the Borrower (the “Lender Fee Letter”);


 


(b)            for
the benefit of the Agent, the fees set forth in that certain fee letter dated as of the Closing Date by and between Agent and the Borrower
(as it may be amended, modified or amended and restated from time to time, the “Agent Fee Letter”), in each case at
the times and in the manner set for in the Agent Fee Letter; and


 






    6


     


    

 


(c)            for
the benefit of the Person to whom such fees, costs, and expenses are owed, all fees, costs and expenses of closing due and owing and presented
as of the Closing Date, including without limitation, those relating to (i) Agent’s and Initial Commitment Parties' due diligence
review and evaluation of the transaction, (ii) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, (iii) the
closing of the Transactions, (iv) all appraisal, audit, environmental, title work, travel, inspection, surveys, filing, search and
registration fees, (v) any loan, escrow, recording and transfer fees and taxes (as applicable), and (vi) Agent’s counsel
fees and expenses relating to any of the foregoing, and Initial Commitment Parties' counsel fees and expenses relating to any of the foregoing,
together with post-closing fees and expenses; provided that fees of counsel shall be limited to one primary outside counsel for each Initial
Commitment Party, one counsel for Agent, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty intellectual property counsel
and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, on additional counsel to each relevant jurisdiction for all such
affected Persons taken as a whole.


 


The Borrower agrees that any fees due and payable
by the Borrower on the Closing Date may be satisfied by the Agent deducting or setting off the amount of such fees from the proceeds of
the Term Loan funded to the Borrower on the Closing Date and by Agent paying such fees to the Persons to whom such fees are owed, in each
case in accordance with the flow of funds attached to the Notice of Borrowing.


 


1.7           Receipt
of Payments; Taxes.


 


(a)            Borrower
shall make each payment under this Agreement (not otherwise made pursuant to Section 1.8) without set-off, counterclaim or
deduction and free and clear of all Taxes not later than 1:00 PM New York City time on the day when due in lawful money of the United
States of America in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account specified by the Agent in writing, except as required
by applicable law. Any payments received by Agent after 1:00 PM New York City time may, in the Agent’s discretion (in consultation
with the Required Lenders), be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and, in such case, any applicable interest or fee shall
continue to accrue; provided, however if Agent receives the payment after 1:00 PM New York City time and does not have sufficient time
to wire such funds to the applicable Lenders, then such payment shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If
a Withholding Agent determines in its good faith discretion that it shall be required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes
from any payment to any Recipient under any Loan Document, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction
or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased so that, after making all required deductions
(including such deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.7), the applicable Recipient receives
an amount equal to that which it would have received had no such deductions been made. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. As soon
as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 1.7, Borrower shall
deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of
the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.


 






    7


     


    

 


(b)            The
Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including
Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required
to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to
the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf
or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(c)             Each
Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such
Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting
the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions
of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender,
in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document
or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent
under this clause (c).


 


(d)            If
any party 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 pursuant to Section 1.7(a) or Section 1.10 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant
to Section 1.7(a)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made under with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such
indemnified party incurred in order to obtain such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified
party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 1.7(b) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by
the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.7(b), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay
any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 1.7(b) the payment of which would place the indemnified
party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and
giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts
with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 1.7(b) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party
to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party
or any other Person.


 






    8


     


    

 


(e)            Each
party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights
by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.


 


1.8           Application
and Allocation of Payments. Borrower irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply any and
all payments against the then due and payable Obligations in such order as Agent may deem advisable (as directed by the Required Lenders);
provided, however, that (i) any and all Mandatory Prepayments shall be applied against the then due and payable Obligations as follows:
(a) first, against the next 4 scheduled installments of the Term Loan in direct order of maturity until such scheduled installments
have been paid in full; (b) second, against all other remaining principal installments of the Term Loan (including the final
installment on the Maturity Date) in inverse order of maturity until the principal on the Term Loans is paid in full; (b) third,
to payment of all accrued unpaid cash interest on the Obligations; (c) fourth,
to payment of costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, of Agent payable
or reimbursable by Credit Parties under the Loan Documents; (d) fifth,
to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Obligations; and (e) sixth, any remainder shall be for the account of and
paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto; and (ii) any and all Voluntary Prepayments shall be applied as directed by Borrower
(and, in the absence of such direction, payments will be applied in the order of maturity). Each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled
to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to the applicable foregoing
clauses.


 


1.9          Accounting.
Each Lender is authorized to record on its books and records the date and amount of the Loan and each payment of principal thereof and
such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded absent manifest error.


 






    9


     


    

 


1.10         Indemnity.
Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold Agent, its Affiliates,
and each of their respective employees, officers, attorneys, advisors and agents (each, an “Agent Indemnified Person”),
each Lender and their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective employees, officers, attorneys, advisors and agents (each, a
 “Lender Indemnified Person” and, together with the Agent Indemnified Persons, each an “Indemnified Person”)
harmless from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, demands, losses, liabilities and expenses of any kind
or nature whatsoever, whether asserted by a Credit Party or any third party (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements
(provided that fees of counsel shall be limited to one primary outside counsel for each Initial Commitment Party, one counsel for Agent,
one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty intellectual property counsel, and, solely in the case of an actual
or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for all such affected Persons taken as a whole))
and other costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal), that may be instituted or asserted against or
incurred by any such Indemnified Person (whether asserted by a Credit Party or any third party) as the result of credit having been extended,
suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance
and administration of, or in any other way arising out of or relating to, in connection with or resulting from (i) the execution
or delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to herein
or therein and any actions or failures to act with respect to any of the foregoing or, in the case of the Agent Indemnified Persons, the
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom;
(iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or emanating from any property owned, leased
or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any Credit
Party or any subsidiary thereof; or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any
of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party or any of the Borrower’s or such Loan Party’s directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto, including, in each case and without limitation, any and all product liabilities, and reasonable legal costs
and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection therewith (collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided
that the foregoing indemnity will not (i) apply to any losses, claims, damages and liabilities that both (x) do not involve
an act or omission by a Credit Party or any of its Affiliates and (y) arise from a dispute among the Indemnified Persons (other than
in connection with Agent acting in its capacity as such, or any Initial Commitment Party acting in its capacity as Lead Arranger, or any
other agent or co-agent (if any) designated by the Lead Arranger, in each case in their respective capacities as such), (ii) as to
any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent that they have resulted from the
gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or any such Indemnified Person’s controlled Affiliates
(as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) or (iii) apply to Taxes other than Taxes
arising from a non-Tax claim. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD
PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER
OF ATTORNEY OR FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED,
SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER
OR THEREUNDER. The Borrower’s and other Credit Parties' obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement
of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations
under any Loan Document.


 






    10


     


    

 


1.11         Rates.
The Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of,
administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted
Term SOFR or Term SOFR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor
or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative,
successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence
of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark
prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Agent
and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference
Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant
adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable
discretion to ascertain the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages
of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether
in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof)
provided by any such information source or service.


 


1.12        Joinder
of New Subsidiaries as a Credit Party, Etc. As soon as possible but in any event upon the earlier of (x) twenty (20) days after
formation of any new Subsidiary of a Credit Party (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) and (y) the date upon which any material assets
are transferred to such new Subsidiary or simultaneously with the consummation of acquisition of any new Subsidiary of a Credit Party
(other than an Excluded Subsidiary), Borrower shall take such actions as required by Section 3.27 and cause such new Subsidiary
to become a Grantor and either a co-Borrower or Guarantor and under this Agreement by having the following documents delivered to Agent
and the Lenders: (i) a Secretarial Certificate, a Power of Attorney and a Joinder Agreement in the forms of Exhibits C, D
and H attached hereto, respectively, duly completed, executed and delivered by such new Subsidiary, (ii) security and other
collateral documents, filings and instruments with respect to such new Subsidiary of the types described on Schedule D attached
hereto, (iii) an opinion of counsel to such new Subsidiary, in form, substance and scope comparable in all material respects to the
legal opinion of Grantor’s counsel delivered to Agent and Lenders on the Closing Date and (iv) an updated Disclosure Schedule
3.7.


 


1.13         Non-Funding
Lenders. Unless Agent shall have received written notice from any Lender prior to the date such
Lender is required to make any payment hereunder with respect to the Loan that such Lender will not make such payment (or any portion
thereof) available to Agent, Agent may assume that such Lender has made such payment available to Agent on the date such payment is required
to be made in accordance with this Section 1 and Agent may (but shall be under no obligation to), in reliance upon such assumption,
make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. Borrower agrees to repay to Agent on demand such amount (until repaid
by such Lender) with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount
is repaid to Agent, at the interest rate applicable to the Obligation that would have been created when Agent made available such amount
to Borrower had such Lender made a corresponding payment available; provided, however, that such payment shall not relieve such Lender
of any obligation it may have to Borrower. In addition, any Lender that shall not have made available to Agent any portion of any payment
described above (any such Lender, a “Non-Funding Lender”) agrees to pay such amount to Agent on demand together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to Agent,
at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Term Loan. Such repayment shall then constitute the funding of the corresponding Loan
(including any Loan deemed to have been made hereunder with such payment) or participation. In the event interest is paid by Borrower
pursuant to this Section 1.13 and Agent subsequently receives payment of such interest from the Non-Funding Lender, Borrower shall
be entitled to be reimbursed for such interest paid by Borrower up to the amount therefor received from the Non-Funding Lender. The existence
of any Non-Funding Lender shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations under any Loan Document, but no other Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any payment required under any Loan Document.


 






    11


     


    

 


1.14         Substitution
of Lenders.


 


(a)             Substitution
Right. In the event that any Lender (an “Affected Lender”), (i) becomes a Non-Funding Lender with respect
to the Loan, (ii) does not consent to any amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document for which the consent of the Required
Lenders is obtained but that requires the consent of all Lenders, or (iii) requires payment of any Indemnified Taxes or additional
amount to such Lender or any Governmental Authority, Borrower may either pay in full such Affected Lender with respect to amounts due
on the Term Loan of such Lender with the consent of Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned) or substitute for such Affected Lender any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender or any other Person
acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) (in each
case, a “Substitute Lender”).


 


(b)            Procedure.
To substitute such Affected Lender or pay in full the Obligations owed to such Affected Lender under such Lender’s Term Loan, Borrower
shall deliver a notice to Agent and such Affected Lender. The effectiveness of such payment or substitution shall be subject to the delivery
to Agent by Borrower (or, as may be applicable in the case of a substitution, by the Substitute Lender) of (i) payment for the account
of such Affected Lender, of, to the extent accrued through, and outstanding on, the effective date for such payment or substitution, all
Obligations owing to such Affected Lender with respect to such Lender’s Term Loan (including those that will be owed because of
such payment and all Obligations that would be owed to such Lender as if it was solely a Lender hereunder but excluding inchoate obligations
for indemnification or reimbursement for which no claim has been asserted), and (ii) in the case of a substitution, (A) payment
of the assignment fee set forth in Section 8(a) and (B) an
Assignment Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent whereby the Substitute Lender shall, among other things, agree to be
bound by the terms of the Loan Documents and assume the Term Loan Commitment of the Affected Lender, and, if such assignee is not currently
a Lender, such assignee shall have delivered to Agent an administrative questionnaire (in a form provided by Agent), a properly completed
and duly executed IRS Form W-9 (or other applicable tax form) and all other documentation and other information about such assignee
as required under applicable "know your customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation,
the USA PATRIOT Act.


 






    12


     


    

 


(c)            Effectiveness.
Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (b) above, Agent shall record such substitution or payment in the
Register, whereupon (i) in the case of any payment in full of all Obligations owing to such Affected Lender, such Affected Lender’s
Term Loan Commitments shall be terminated and (ii) in the case of any substitution, (A) the Affected Lender shall sell and be
relieved of, and the Substitute Lender shall purchase and assume, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents
with respect to such Lender’s Term Loan, except that the Affected Lender shall retain such rights expressly providing that they
survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Term Loan Commitments, (B) the Substitute Lender shall become
a “Lender” hereunder having a Term Loan Commitment in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and
(C) the Affected Lender shall execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment Agreement to evidence such substitution and deliver to Borrower
any Note in its possession with respect to its Term Loan; provided, however, that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute any such
Assignment Agreement or deliver any such Note shall not render such sale and purchase (or the corresponding assignment) invalid.


 


1.15         Inability
to Determine Rates. Subject to Section 10.17, if, on or prior to the first day of any quarter, either (a) the Agent determines
(which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR” cannot be determined
pursuant to the definition thereof, or (b) the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for
a SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Adjusted Term SOFR for any applicable interest period with respect
to a proposed SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Loan, and the Required
Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Agent, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.


 


Upon notice thereof by the Agent to the Borrower,
any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue SOFR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent
of the affected SOFR Loans or affected interest periods) until the Agent (with respect to the foregoing clause (b), at the instruction
of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a
borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or affected interest periods) or,
failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing or continuation of, or conversion
to, Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted
into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable interest period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest
on the amount so converted. Subject to Section 10.17, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day,
the interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Agent without reference to the clause of the definition of “Base
Rate” that is based on Adjusted Term SOFR until the Agent revokes such determination.

parties in the Merger Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that Borrower or Holdings (or
any of their affiliates) have the right to terminate their obligations under the Merger Agreement or to decline to consummate the Initial
Transactions as a result of a breach of such representations or warranties in the Merger Agreement (to such extent, the “Specified
Merger Agreement Representations”) and (ii) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (b) the terms of
the Loan Documents shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability or funding of the Term Loans on the Closing Date if
the conditions set forth in this Section 2.1 are satisfied (it being understood that to the extent any security interest in any Collateral
(other than to the extent that a security interest in such Collateral may be perfected by (x) the filing of a financing statement
under the Code, (y) taking delivery and possession of certificated equity interests of the Borrower and any domestic subsidiaries
of the Borrower pledged under the Loan Documents and (z) the filing of short form intellectual property filings with the United States
Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office) is not or cannot be provided or perfected on the Closing Date after
Borrower’s use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, then the perfection and/or provision of a security interest in such
Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Term Loans on the Closing Date but instead shall be required

means the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties set forth in the Loan Documents relating to organizational existence of
the Credit Parties; good standing and qualification of the Credit Parties; power and authority of the Credit Parties as to execution,
delivery and performance of the Loan Documents; due authorization, execution and delivery of the Credit Parties and enforceability against

3.3            Corporate
Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The execution, delivery and performance by each Grantor of the Loan Documents to which
it is a party, and the creation of all Liens provided for herein and therein: (a) are and will continue to be within such Grantor’s

adjustments and to the absence of footnotes in the case of unaudited statements).


 


(b)            The
Grantors shall keep proper Books and Records in which proper entries, reflecting all consolidated and consolidating financial transactions,

    18


     


    

 


3.5           Material
Adverse Change. Between December 31, 2021 and the Closing Date, no events with respect to any Grantor have occurred that alone
or in the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation
of any Grantor has or has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Grantor is in default, and to such
Grantor’s knowledge no third party is in default, under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations, that alone or in
the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


3.6           Reserved.


 


3.7           Subsidiaries.
Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.7), as of the Closing Date, Borrower does not have any Subsidiaries. The issued and
outstanding Stock of Borrower (excluding all rights to purchase, options, warrants or similar rights or agreements pursuant to which Borrower
or Holdings may be required to issue, sell, repurchase or redeem any of its Stock) as of the Closing Date is accurately reflected in the
organizational chart delivered pursuant to Section 3.28(c) and set forth on Schedule 10(a) to the Perfection
Certificate or any Perfection Certificate Supplement (whichever was most recently delivered to Agent). A list of the shareholders of Holdings
owning ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding Stock of Holdings, as of the Closing Date, is set forth on Schedule 10(a) to
the Perfection Certificate.


 


3.8           Government
Regulation; Margin Regulations. No Grantor is subject to or regulated under any Federal or state statute, rule or regulation
that restricts or limits such Person’s ability to incur the Obligations, pledge its assets, or to perform its obligations under
the Loan Documents. The making of the Loan, the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents do not and will not violate any Requirement of Law. No Grantor is engaged, nor will it engage, in the
business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin security” as
such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board as now and hereafter in effect (such securities being referred to
herein as “Margin Stock”). No Grantor owns any Margin Stock, and none of the proceeds of the Loan or other extensions
of credit under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock or reducing
or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock. No Grantor will take or permit to be
taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.


 


3.9           Taxes;
Charges. Except as disclosed in Disclosure Schedule (3.9), all federal and other material tax returns, reports and statements
required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by Borrower or any other Grantor have, as of the Closing Date, been filed and will,
until the Termination Date, be filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority and no tax Lien has been filed against any Grantor or
any Grantor’s property (other than (i) Liens for Taxes not yet due and payable or that are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP and (ii) tax
Liens securing de minimis amounts that are discharged promptly upon such Grantor obtaining knowledge thereof). Borrower and each Grantor
has paid all federal, state and other taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their properties,
income or assets otherwise due and payable, except (a) Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently
conducted and for which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do
so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Disclosure Schedule (3.9) sets forth as of the Closing Date
those taxable years for which any Grantor’s tax returns are currently being audited by the IRS or any other applicable Governmental
Authority and any assessments or threatened assessments in connection with such audit, or otherwise currently outstanding. As of the Closing
Date, no Grantor has agreed or been requested to make any adjustment under Section 481(a) of the IRC, by reason of a change
in accounting method or otherwise, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 






    19


     


    

 


3.10         ERISA.


 


(a)             No
ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other existing ERISA Events, could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in Disclosure Schedule (3.10), the present value of all accumulated
benefit obligations of the Grantors under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent Financial Statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of
the assets of such Plan by more than $750,000 when aggregated with the potential Withdrawal Liability, and the present value of all accumulated
benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Account Standards No. 87)
did not, as of the date of the most recent Financial Statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of
such underfunded Plans by more than $750,000 when aggregated with the potential Withdrawal Liability. No Grantor or ERISA Affiliate has
incurred or reasonably expects to incur any Withdrawal Liability in excess of $750,000.


 


(b)            Each
Grantor shall furnish to the Agent (x) as soon as possible after, and in any event within five (5) days after any Responsible
Officer of any Credit Party or any of its ERISA Affiliates knows or has reason to know that, any ERISA Event has occurred
that, alone or together with any other ERISA Event could reasonably be expected
to result in liability of the Credit Parties or any of their ERISA Affiliates in an aggregate amount exceeding $750,000
or the imposition of a Lien, a statement of a Responsible Officer of such Credit Party or such ERISA Affiliate setting forth details as
to such ERISA Event and the action, if any, that such Credit Party or such ERISA Affiliate proposes to take with respect thereto; (y) upon
request by the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), copies of (i) each Schedule B (Actuarial Information) to the annual

Required Lenders shall reasonably request and (z) promptly following any request therefor, copies of (i) any documents described
in Section 101(k) of ERISA that any Credit Party or its ERISA Affiliate may request with respect to any Multiemployer Plan and

to any Multiemployer Plan; provided, that if any Credit Party or its ERISA Affiliate has not requested such documents or notices from
the administrator or sponsor of the applicable Multiemployer Plan, the applicable Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate shall promptly make
a request for such documents or notices from such administrator or sponsor and shall provide copies of such documents and notices promptly
after receipt thereof.

3.11         Litigation.


 


(a)            Except
as specifically disclosed in Disclosure Schedule (3.11) as of the Closing Date, there are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims
or disputes pending, or to the knowledge of each Credit Party, threatened or contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before
any Governmental Authority, against any Credit Party or any of their respective Properties which:


 


(i)            purport
to affect or pertain to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or Related Agreement, or any of the Transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby; or


 


(ii)           would
reasonably be expected to result in equitable relief or monetary judgment(s), individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $750,000.


 


(b)            There
are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending, or to the knowledge of each Credit Party, threatened or contemplated,
at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, against any Credit Party or any of their respective Properties
which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(c)            No
injunction, writ, temporary restraining order or any order of any nature has been issued by any court or other Governmental Authority
purporting to enjoin or restrain the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Related Agreement,
or directing that the transactions provided for herein or therein not be consummated as herein or therein provided. As of the Closing
Date, except with respect to matters set forth on Disclosure Schedule (3.11), no Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party
is the subject of an audit or, to each Credit Party’s knowledge, any review or investigation by any Governmental Authority (excluding
the IRS and other taxing authorities) concerning the violation or possible violation of any Requirement of Law. Each Grantor shall notify
Agent promptly in writing upon learning of the existence, threat or commencement of any such Litigation or any such order, investigation
or audit that, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to result in a liability in excess of $750,000.


 






    21


     


    

 


3.12         Intellectual
Property. Each Grantor owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property material to its business as currently conducted, except
for such Intellectual Property the failure of which to so own or be so licensed could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Each Grantor will take all commercially reasonable steps to maintain the registrations and Patents existing as of the Closing
Date, except for such registrations and Patents for which the failure to maintain would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Each Grantor will take all commercially reasonable steps to preserve its licenses to any Intellectual Property material
to its business, and to protect and preserve its rights in any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor and material to its business,
so as to permit Agent (or its designee) to sell, transfer, rent, or use the Collateral upon the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default. As of the Closing Date, the Grantors own or are licensed to use the Intellectual Property material to its business
as currently conducted as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.12) (excluding off-the-shelf software and click-through licenses).
As of the Closing Date, the Intellectual Property set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.12) and owned by a Grantor, is, to the knowledge
of such Grantor, valid, in full force and effect, subsisting, unexpired and enforceable. In the event that any Grantor becomes aware that
any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor and that is material to the conduct of its business has been or is about to be infringed,
misappropriated or diluted by a third party in a manner that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, such
Grantor promptly shall take such commercially reasonable actions as are appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual
Property, including, if consistent with good business judgment, promptly suing for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover
any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution. Each Grantor shall not knowingly do any act to infringe, misappropriate,
dilute, or otherwise violate the Intellectual Property rights of any other Person in any material respect.


 


3.13         Full
Disclosure. No information contained in any Loan Document, the Financial Statements or any written statement furnished by or on behalf
of any Grantor under any Loan Document, or to induce Agent and the Lenders to execute the Loan Documents (as such information has been
amended, supplemented or superseded by any other information later delivered to the same parties receiving such information, provided
that the delivery of such amended, supplemented or superseding information shall not cure any Event of Default arising under Section 7.1(b) other
than with respect to this Section 3.13), taken as a whole, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state
a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, it being recognized by Agent and the Lenders that the projections and forecasts provided by the Grantors in good
faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such
projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results.


 






    22


     


    

 


3.14         Environmental
Liabilities. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.14), as
of the Closing Date, (a) no Grantor is subject to any Environmental Liabilities or, to any Grantor’s knowledge, potential Environmental
Liabilities, that could reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $750,000
in the aggregate and (b) no notice has been received by any Grantor identifying it as a “potentially responsible party”
or requesting information under CERCLA or analogous state statutes, and to the knowledge of any Grantor, there are no facts, circumstances
or conditions that may result in any Grantor being identified as a “potentially responsible party” under CERCLA or analogous
state statutes, in each such case if such circumstance could reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of
$750,000 in the aggregate. Each Grantor: (i) shall comply in all
material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws and environmental permits, (ii) shall notify Agent in writing within seven
(7) days if and when it becomes aware of any Release, on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any real property owned, leased
or occupied by a Grantor if such Release could reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $750,000
in the aggregate, (iii) shall notify Agent in writing within seven (7) days
if and when it becomes aware of any claims that could form the basis for any Environmental Liabilities that could reasonably be expected
to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $750,000 in the aggregate,
and (iv) shall notify Agent in writing within seven (7) days if and when it becomes aware of any occurrences of non-compliance
with Environmental Laws or environmental permits that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting
the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing or if Agent or the Required Lenders at any time has a reasonable basis to believe
that there exist violations of Environmental Laws by any Grantor or that there exist any Environmental Liabilities, in each case, that
would have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, then each Grantor shall, promptly upon receipt of request from Agent (at the
direction of the Required Lenders), cause the performance of, and allow Agent (or its designee) access to such real property for the purpose
of conducting, such environmental audits and assessments, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, and cause the preparation
of such reports, in each case as Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may from time to time reasonably request. Such audits,
assessments and reports, to the extent not conducted by Agent (or its designee) shall be conducted and prepared by reputable environmental
consulting firms reasonably acceptable to Agent and shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent and the Required Lenders.

(b)           Endorsements.
Within the period permitted pursuant to Section 3.35, the Grantors shall cause all insurance policies carried and maintained

on behalf of itself and the Lenders, shall be named as lender’s loss payable with respect to property policy described in subsection
(a)(i).  Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, shall be named as an additional insured with respect to liability policies
described in subsections (a)(ii) and, to the extent allowed by law, (a)(iii). It shall be understood that
any obligation imposed upon the Grantors, including but not limited to the obligation to pay premiums, shall be the sole obligation of
the Grantors and not that of the Agent; and,


 


(ii)           With
respect to property policy described in subsection (a)(i), the interests of the Agent shall not be invalidated by any action
or inaction of any Grantor or any other Person, and shall insure the Agent regardless of any breach or violation by any Grantor or any
other Person, of any warranties, declarations or conditions of such policies; and


 


(iii)          If

the carrier which affect the interests of the Agent, such cancellation or change shall not be effective as to the Agent until thirty (30)
days (or 10 days, in the case of a cancellation resulting from the non-payment of any insurance premiums) after receipt by Agent of written
notice from such insurer.


 






    24


     


    

 


(c)            Certifications.
On the Closing Date, and at each policy renewal, but not less than annually, the Grantors shall provide to the Agent a certification from
each insurer or by an authorized representative of each insurer. Such certification shall identify the underwriters, the type of insurance,

for such insurance required for this Section 3.15.


 


(d)            Reserved.


 


(e)            Notice
to Agent. The Grantors shall notify the Agent in writing immediately whenever any separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing
in the event of loss with that required to be maintained under this Section 3.15
is taken out by any Credit Party; and promptly deliver to the Agent a copy of such policy or policies.


 


(f)            Flood
Insurance. With respect to each Mortgaged Property (if any), the Grantors shall obtain flood insurance in such total amount as the
Agent or the Required Lenders may from time to time require, if at any time the area in which any improvements located on any Mortgaged
Property is designated a “flood hazard area” in any Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (or any successor agency), and otherwise comply with the National
Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 and all legislation, and rules and regulations
thereunder, administered by the relevant local conservation authority with respect to flood plain management and other conservation matters.


 


(g)           Mortgaged
Properties. No Credit Party that is an owner of any Mortgaged Property shall take any action that is reasonably likely to be the basis
for termination, revocation or denial of any insurance coverage required to be maintained under such Credit Party’s respective Mortgage
or that could be the basis for a defense to any claim under any insurance policy maintained in respect of the mortgaged properties, and
each Credit Party shall otherwise comply in all material respects with all Insurance Requirements in respect of the mortgaged properties;
provided, however, that each Credit Party may, at its own expense and after written notice to the Agent, (i) contest the applicability
or enforceability of any such Insurance Requirements by appropriate legal proceedings, the prosecution of which does not constitute a
basis for cancellation or revocation of any insurance coverage required under this Section 3.15 or (ii) cause the insurance
policy containing any such Insurance Requirement to be replaced by a new policy complying with the provisions of this Section 3.15.


 


Borrower shall direct all present and future insurers
under its policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder with respect to the Collateral directly to Agent for application
pursuant to Section 1.2(c) (subject to the terms thereof). If any insurance proceeds are paid by check, draft or other
instrument payable to Borrower and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse Borrower’s name thereon and, upon the occurrence of an Event

Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Agent and at the sole expense of the Grantors, the Grantors
shall promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action as Agent or

Person who owns any other direct interest in a Credit Party is or shall be listed on any of the Lists or is or shall be a Designated Person.
This Section 3.22 shall not apply to any Person to the extent that such Person’s interest in the Borrower is through

any event as required by law), to ensure that such Credit Party is in compliance with all current and future Anti-Money Laundering Laws
and laws, regulations and government guidance for the prevention of terrorism, terrorist financing and drug trafficking.

3.22         Maintenance
of Corporate Existence. Each Credit Party shall preserve and maintain (a) its legal existence and good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and (b) its rights (charter and statutory), privileges franchises and Permits
necessary or desirable in the conduct of its business, except, in the case of this clause (b), where the failure to do so would
not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


3.23         Compliance
with Laws, Etc. Each Credit Party shall comply with all applicable Requirements of Law, Contractual Obligations and Permits, except
for such failures to comply that could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


3.24         Landlord
and Bailee Agreements. Upon the request of Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), each Grantor shall use reasonable best
efforts to deliver to Agent a landlord waiver or mortgagee waiver, as applicable, from the lessor of each leased real property of a Credit
Party or mortgagee of any owned real property of a Credit Party with respect to each location where the Collateral having a value in excess
of $500,000 and/or Books and Records are stored or located, which agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to
Agent and the Required Lenders. Upon the request of Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), each Grantor shall deliver to Agent
a bailee waiver from a bailee with respect to each warehouse or location where the Collateral having a value in excess of $500,000, which

and each Guarantor shall maintain a cash management system which is reasonably acceptable to Agent and the Required Lenders (the “Cash
Management System”), which shall operate as follows:


 


(b)            All
cash Proceeds of Collateral held by Borrower or any other Credit Party (other than funds being collected pursuant to the provisions stated
below) shall be deposited in one or more bank accounts or securities investment accounts, as set forth on Disclosure
Schedule (3.25) or other accounts that comply with the requirements of clause (d) below.


 


(c)            Borrower
and Grantors shall promptly deposit and direct their respective Account Debtors to directly remit all payments on Accounts and all payments
constituting Proceeds of Collateral in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, check or other manner into
the accounts and related lockboxes maintained by the financial institutions as described on Disclosure
Schedule (3.25) hereto or such other accounts established in compliance with clause (d) below (in each case, other
than Excluded Accounts, “Blocked Accounts”) and segregated from other funds of the Grantors not constituting Collateral,
if any. By the date that is forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date (or such later date as may be agreed by Agent in consultation
with the Required Lenders), Borrower and Grantors shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent a Control Agreement duly authorized,
executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account for the benefit of Borrower or any Grantors is maintained. Borrower shall
further execute and deliver, and shall cause each Grantor to execute and deliver, such agreements and documents as Agent or the Required
Lenders may reasonably require in connection with such Blocked Accounts and such Control Agreements.


 






    29


     


    

 


(d)           Borrower
and Grantor shall not establish any deposit accounts after the Closing Date into which Proceeds of Collateral are deposited other than
Excluded Accounts, unless Borrower or such Grantor has caused to be delivered to Agent a Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and
delivered by such Grantor and each bank where a such deposit account is maintained. Borrower and each Grantor agrees that from and after
the delivery of an Activation Notice (as such term is defined in Section 3.25(e) below) all payments made to such Blocked
Accounts or other funds received and collected by Agent or any Lender, whether in respect of the Accounts or as Proceeds of Collateral
shall be treated as payments to Agent and the Lenders in respect of the Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Agent
and the Lenders to the extent of the then outstanding applicable Obligations.


 


(e)           The
applicable bank at which any Blocked Accounts are maintained shall agree from and after the receipt of a notice (an “Activation
Notice”) from Agent (which Activation Notice may, or upon instruction of the applicable Required Lenders, shall, be given by
Agent at any time during an Event of Default) pursuant to and subject to the terms of the applicable Control Agreement, to forward, daily,
all amounts in each Blocked Account to the account designated as collection account (the “Collection Account”) which
shall be under the exclusive dominion and control of Agent.


 


(f)            From
and after the delivery of an Activation Notice, Agent shall apply all such funds in the Collection Account on a daily basis to the repayment
of the applicable Obligations in accordance with Section 7.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, after payment in full
has been made of the amounts required under Section 7.4, any additional funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be
released to such Credit Party or other Person lawfully entitled to the same.


 


(g)           Borrower,
Grantors and their directors, employees, agents and other Affiliates shall promptly deposit or cause the same to be deposited, any monies,
checks, notes, drafts or any other payment constituting Proceeds of Collateral which come into their possession or under their control
on behalf of Borrower or any Grantor in the applicable Blocked Accounts. Borrower agrees to reimburse Agent on demand for any amounts
owed or paid to any bank at which a Blocked Account is established or any other bank or person involved in the transfer of funds to or
from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Agent’s payments to or indemnification of such bank or person other than amounts arising
out of Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of
competent jurisdiction.


 






    30


     


    

 


(h)           For
the avoidance of doubt, except to the extent required to be applied as a Mandatory Prepayment pursuant to Section 1.2(c),
prior to the delivery by Agent of an Activation Notice, Borrower is entitled to access and use the amounts on deposit in any Blocked Account
in any manner not otherwise prohibited under the Loan Documents, including maintaining amounts in the Excluded Accounts to the extent
permitted under the definition of Excluded Accounts.

Property; Additional Collateral. Each Grantor shall:


 


(a)            Subject
to this Section 3.27, with respect to any property (other than Excluded Property) acquired after the Closing Date by any Credit
Party that is intended to be subject to the Lien created by any of the Loan Documents but is not so subject, promptly (and in any event
within thirty (30) days after the acquisition thereof (or such later date permitted by Agent in its discretion)) (i) execute and
deliver to the Agent such other documents as the Agent and the Required Lenders shall reasonably deem necessary or advisable to grant
to the Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, a Lien on such property (other than Excluded Property) subject to no Liens
other than Permitted Liens, and (ii) take all actions necessary to cause such Lien to be duly perfected to the extent required hereunder
in accordance with all applicable Requirements of Law, including the filing of financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be reasonably
requested by the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) (other than Excluded Perfection Actions). The Borrower shall
otherwise take such actions and execute and/or deliver to the Agent such documents as the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required
Lenders) shall require to confirm the validity, perfection and priority of the Lien hereunder on such after-acquired properties (other
than Excluded Perfection Actions and other than with respect to Excluded Property).


 


(b)            As
soon as possible but in any event within the earlier of (x) twenty (20) days after formation
(or such later date permitted by Agent in its sole discretion) after the formation
of any new Subsidiary (including any Foreign Subsidiary) of a Credit Party and (y) the date upon which any material assets are transferred
to such new Subsidiary or simultaneously with the consummation of an acquisition of any new Subsidiary: (i) deliver to the Agent
the original certificates, if any, representing all of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary (except to the extent constituting Excluded

a duly authorized officer of the holder(s) of such Equity Interests, and all intercompany notes owing from such Subsidiary to any
Credit Party together with instruments of transfer executed and delivered in blank by a duly authorized officer of such Credit Party and
(ii) cause such new Subsidiary (excluding Excluded Subsidiaries) (A) to execute a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit H or
such comparable documentation to become a Grantor and Guarantor under this Agreement, and (B) to take all actions reasonably requested
by Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) to cause the Lien created hereunder to be duly perfected to the extent required hereunder
in accordance with all applicable Requirements of Law, including (x) the execution by Borrower or the applicable Credit Party of
a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit H or such comparable documentation to the applicable Pledge Agreement,

Required Lenders), and (z) to the extent such new Subsidiary owns Collateral subject to motor vehicle registration requirements which
is located in the United States and has a fair market value in the aggregate in excess of $500,000 and which is not otherwise subject
to perfection by the filing of financing statements under clause (y) above, the noting or (having noted) of the Agent’s Lien

    31


     


    

 


(c)            Promptly
grant to the Agent, within thirty (30) days of the acquisition thereof (or such later date permitted by Agent in its sole discretion),
a security interest in and Mortgage on each Real Property owned in fee by such Credit Party as is acquired by such Credit Party after
the Closing Date and that, together with any improvements thereon, individually has a fair market value of at least $1,000,000, as additional
security for the Obligations (unless the subject property is already mortgaged to a third party to the extent permitted by Section 5.2).
Such Mortgages shall be granted pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent and the Required
Lenders and shall constitute valid and enforceable perfected Liens subject only to Permitted Liens or other Liens acceptable to the Agent
and the Required Lenders. The Mortgages or instruments related thereto shall be duly recorded or filed in such manner and in such places
as are required by law to establish, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens in favor of the Agent required to be granted pursuant to
the Mortgages and all taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall be paid in full. Such Credit Party shall otherwise
take such actions and execute and/or deliver to the Agent such documents as the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) shall
require to confirm the validity, perfection and priority of the Lien of any existing Mortgage or new Mortgage against such after-acquired
Real Property (including a title insurance policy, a survey and local counsel opinion (each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Agent and the Required Lenders) in respect of such Mortgage).

of other persons, except the security interest created by the Loan Documents, and there are no outstanding warrants, options or other
rights to purchase, or shareholder, voting trust or similar agreements outstanding with respect to, or property that is convertible into,
or that requires the issuance or sale of, any such Equity Interests.


 






    32

Consent of Third Parties Required. Other than the approval of the Board of Directors of the issuer of the Equity Interests, no consent
of any Person including any other general or limited partner, any other member of a limited liability company, any other shareholder or
any other trust beneficiary is necessary or reasonably desirable (from the perspective of a secured party) in connection with the creation,
perfection or priority status of the security interest of the Agent in any Equity Interests pledged to the Agent for the benefit of the

(whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Agent); provided that Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such
documents to the Agent or any Lender upon its request to Borrower to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering

such request by a Lender for delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies

		(i)	any fee owned real property with a fair market value less than $750,000, and any real property leasehold

Office, of a “Statement of Use” or “Amendment to Allege Use” with respect thereto, to the extent, if any, that,

benefit to the lenders afforded thereby as reasonably determined by the Borrower, the Agent and the Required Lenders;

(b)           Borrower,
Agent, each Lender and each other Grantor agrees that this Agreement creates, and is intended to create, valid and continuing Liens upon
the Collateral in favor of Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders. Each Grantor represents, warrants and promises to Agent
and each Lender that: (i) such Grantor has rights in and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports
to grant a Lien pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others, other than Permitted Liens; (ii) the
security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement, upon completion of the filings and other actions listed on Disclosure Schedule
(6.1) (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to in said Schedule, have been delivered to the Agent in duly

in all of the Collateral (other than Collateral subject to Excluded Perfection Actions) in favor of Agent for its benefit and the benefit
of the Lenders as security for the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the
terms hereof against any and all creditors of and purchasers from any Grantor and such security interests are prior to all other Liens
on the Collateral in existence on the date hereof except for Permitted Liens that have priority by operation of law; and (iii) no
effective security agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, financing statement, equivalent security or Lien instrument or continuation statement
covering all or any part of the Collateral is or will be on file or of record in any public office, except those relating to Permitted
Liens. Each Grantor promises to take such actions as Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) reasonably requests to defend the
right, title and interest of Agent in and to the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons, subject to Permitted Liens.


 






    52


     


    

 


(c)           Each
Credit Party confirms that value has been given by the Agent and the Lenders to each such Credit Party, that each Credit Party has rights
in the Collateral (other than after-acquired property) and that each Credit Party and the Agent have not agreed to postpone the time for
attachment of the security interests created by this Agreement to any of the Collateral. The security interests created by this Agreement
are intended to attach to: (i) existing Collateral when each Credit Party executes this Agreement, and (ii) Collateral subsequently
acquired by each Credit Party immediately upon each such Credit Party acquiring any rights in such Collateral.


 


6.2           Agent’s
Rights. Each Grantor, with respect to each property where any Collateral is located that is owned, leased or controlled by any Grantor,
during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in
which event no notice shall be required and Agent shall have access at any and all times): (i) provide access to such property to
Agent (or its designee so long as such designee is bound by a confidentiality agreement) and any of its officers, employees and agents,
as frequently as Agent reasonably determines to be appropriate, (ii) permit Agent (or its designee so long as such designee is bound
by a confidentiality agreement) to inspect, review, evaluate and make physical verifications and appraisals of the Collateral in any manner
and through any medium that Agent or the Required Lenders considers advisable, and each Grantor agrees to render to Agent, at such Grantor’s
cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto, and (iii) permit Agent (or
its designee so long as such designee is bound by a confidentiality agreement) to inspect, audit and make extracts and copies (or take
originals if reasonably necessary) from all of such Grantor’s Books and Records; provided, however, that no Credit Party shall be
obligated to reimburse Agent for any fees or expenses incurred in connection with more than one such inspection or audit per Fiscal Year
absent an Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing.


 


6.3           Agent’s
Appointment as Attorney-in-fact. On the Closing Date, each Grantor shall execute and deliver a Power of Attorney in the form attached
as Exhibit D. The power of attorney granted pursuant to the Power of Attorney and all powers granted under any Loan Document
are powers coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Termination Date, at which time such Power of Attorney shall automatically
terminate. The powers conferred on Agent under each Power of Attorney are solely to protect Agent’s interests in the Collateral
and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Agent agrees not to exercise any power or authority granted under the
Power of Attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Each Grantor also hereby (i) authorizes Agent (or its
designee so long as such designee is bound by a confidentiality agreement) to file any financing statements, continuation statements or
amendments thereto that (x) cover the Collateral, and (y) contain any other information required by Part 5 of Article 9
of the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or amendment and (ii) ratifies
its authorization for Agent (or its designee so long as such designee is bound by a confidentiality agreement) to have filed any such
financing statements, if filed prior to the date hereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that, until the Obligations (other than inchoate obligations
for indemnification or reimbursement for which no claim has been made) have been repaid in full, it is not authorized to file any financing
statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any such financing statement without the prior written consent of Agent
and agrees that, until such time, it will not do so without the prior written consent of Agent, subject to such Grantor’s rights
under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the Code.


 






    53


     


    

 


6.4           Grant
of License to Use Intellectual Property Collateral. Solely for the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise rights and remedies under
Section 7.2 hereof for the benefit of the Lenders (including, without limiting the terms of Section 7.2 hereof,
in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral)
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent an irrevocable, non-exclusive,
worldwide license (exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and without payment of royalty or
other compensation to such Grantor) to use, practice, transfer, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property that constitutes or relates
to any of the Collateral and that is licensed to, owned by or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located,
and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software
and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof, and represents, promises and agrees that any such license or sublicense is
not and will not be in conflict with the contractual or commercial rights of any third Person; provided, that such license will terminate
on the Termination Date and; provided, further, that such license with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to, with respect to the
goods and/or services on which such Trademarks are used, maintenance of quality standards that are sufficient to preserve the validity
of such Trademarks and are consistent with past practices in all material respects.


 


6.5           Commercial
Tort Claims. As of the Closing Date, each Credit Party hereby represents and warrants that it holds no commercial tort claims other
than those listed in Schedule 13 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Credit Party shall at any time hold or acquire a commercial
tort claim, such Credit Party shall promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof notify Agent in writing signed by such Credit Party of
the brief details thereof and take such actions as Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably request to grant to
Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing
to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent and the Required Lenders. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall
not apply to the extent that the amount of such commercial tort claim, together with the amount of all other commercial tort claims held
by any Credit Party in which Agent does not have a security interest, does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Credit Parties.


 


6.6            Duties
of Agent. Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession
shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The powers conferred on Agent hereunder
are solely to protect Agent’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent to exercise any such powers. Agent
shall be accountable only for amounts that it receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its Related
Persons shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, Agent shall not be liable
or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission
of any warehousemen, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other bailee except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction
determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
in the selection of such Person.


 






    54


     


    

 


6.7           Release;
Termination.


 


(a)           Upon
any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under this Agreement to any Person that
is not another Grantor, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released, and the Agent shall promptly execute
and deliver to and authorize the filing by each Grantor such documents and instruments reasonably requested by such Grantor as shall be
necessary to evidence the termination of the security interests in such Collateral.


 


(b)           The
security interests created by this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the Termination Date and the Agent shall promptly execute
and deliver to and authorize the filing by each Grantor such documents and instruments reasonably requested by such Grantor as shall be
necessary to evidence the termination of all security interests given by such Grantor to the Agent hereunder and deliver to the Borrower,
at the expense of the Borrower, any portion of the Collateral that is in possession of the Agent.


 


(c)           Any
execution and delivery of such documents pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty
by the Agent or any Lender. The Borrower shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for all reasonable and documented costs and out of pocket
expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and expenses of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by
this Section 6.7.


 


	7.	EVENTS
OF DEFAULT: RIGHTS AND REMEDIES



 


7.1           Events
of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events (regardless of the reason therefor) shall constitute an “Event

Lenders) in accordance with Section 9.3 or cured in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement:

(c)           Borrower
or any other Credit Party shall fail or neglect to perform, keep or observe: (A) any of the covenants, promises, agreements, requirements,

to the terms of an intercreditor agreement or otherwise), whether of principal, interest or otherwise, and whether due by scheduled maturity,
required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice period, if any,
specified in the document relating thereto, in respect of any Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) of such Person in an aggregate
original principal amount exceeding $750,000, or (ii) causes (or permits any holder of such Indebtedness or a trustee to cause) such
Indebtedness, or a portion thereof, in an aggregate original principal amount exceeding $7500,000 to become due prior to its stated maturity
or prior to its regularly scheduled date of payment; or


 


(g)           there
shall be commenced against the Borrower or any other Credit Party any Litigation seeking issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution,
distraint or similar process against all or any substantial part of its assets that results in the entry of an order for any such relief
that remains unstayed, undismissed or unbonded for sixty (60) consecutive days; or Borrower or any other Credit Party shall have concealed,
removed or permitted to be concealed or removed, any part of its property with intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors
or made or suffered a transfer of any of its property or the incurring of an obligation that may be fraudulent under any bankruptcy, fraudulent
transfer or other similar law; or


 






    56


     


    

 


(h)           a
case or proceeding shall have been commenced involuntarily against Borrower or any other Credit Party in a court having competent jurisdiction
seeking a decree or order: (i) under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy
or other similar law, and seeking either (x) the appointment of a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or sequestrator
(or similar official) for such Person or of any substantial part of its properties, or (y) the reorganization or winding up or liquidation

(j)            a
final judgment or judgments for the payment of money in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate (in excess of the amount thereof covered by
insurance) shall be rendered against Borrower or any other Credit Party, to the extent not vacated, stayed, bonded, paid or discharged
for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days after the date of entry such judgment; or


 


(k)           any
provision of any Loan Document shall for any reason cease to be valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms in any material
respect, or any Lien granted, or intended by the Loan Documents to be granted, to Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders
shall cease to be a valid and perfected Lien having the first priority (or a lesser priority if expressly permitted in the Loan Documents
and subject to the Excluded Perfection Actions) in any of the Collateral having a value in excess of $500,000 (or any Credit Party shall

Change of Control shall have occurred with respect to any Credit Party unless the Termination Date occurs substantially concurrently with
the consummation of such Change of Control; or


 


(m)           an
ERISA Event shall have occurred that, when taken together with all other ERISA Events that have occurred and are then continuing, could
reasonably be expected to have Material Adverse Effect; or


 


(n)           if
the obligation of any Guarantor under its Guarantee or under any of the Loan Documents is limited or terminated by operation of law or
by such Guarantor (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).


 






    57


     


    

 


7.2           Remedies.


 


(a)           If
any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then each Lender may suspend its commitment hereunder to make the Term Loan.
In addition, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may and, at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall,
take any one or more of the following actions: (i) by notice to Borrower declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be forthwith
due and payable, whereupon such Obligations shall become and be due and payable; or (ii) exercise any rights and remedies provided
to Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided
under the Code; provided, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in clause (i) of either Sections 7.1(h) or
(i), the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable (and any obligation of the Lenders to make the Loan, if not previously
terminated, shall immediately be terminated) without declaration, notice or demand by Agent.


 


(b)           Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, Agent may collect, receive, assemble, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith
sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so),
or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem best, for
cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale,
to the extent permitted by law, to purchase for the benefit of the Lenders the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any
right of equity of redemption, which right each Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned, or continued from time to time with
or without notice. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right
to use any Grantor’s premises without rent or other charge for such sales or other action with respect to the Collateral for such
time as Agent deems necessary or advisable.


 






    58


     


    

 


(c)           Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at Agent’s request, Borrower and each other Grantor further
agrees, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at places that Agent shall reasonably select, whether at its premises
or elsewhere. During the continuance of an Event of Default, until Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of the
Collateral, Agent shall have the right to complete, assemble, use or operate the Collateral or any part thereof, to the extent that Agent
deems appropriate, for the purpose of preserving such Collateral or its value or for any other purpose. Agent shall have no obligation
to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of any Grantor as against third parties with respect to any Collateral while such Collateral
is in the possession of Agent. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver
or keeper to take possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of Agent’s or the Lenders’ remedies with respect thereto
without prior notice or hearing. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower and each other Grantor waives all claims,
damages, and demands against Agent, each Lender, their Affiliates, agents, and the officers and employees of any of them arising out of
the repossession, retention or sale of any Collateral except such as are determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction
to have arisen solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person. Borrower and each other Grantor agrees that ten
(10) days’ prior notice by Agent to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private
sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. Borrower and each other Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency
if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Agent and each Lender are entitled.


 


(d)           Agent’s
and each Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies
that Agent and each Lender may have under any Loan Document or at law or in equity. Recourse to the Collateral shall not be required.
All provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and
to be limited, to the extent necessary, so that they do not render this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part.


 


7.3           Waivers
by Credit Parties. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower
and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives: (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor,
intent to accelerate, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Loan
Documents; (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent’s taking possession or control of, or to Agent’s replevy,
attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent or any Lender
to exercise any of their remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption laws. Borrower and each other Credit
Party executing this Agreement acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.


 


7.4           Proceeds.
The Proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon any Collateral during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be
applied by Agent in the following order of priority: first, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities,
expenses and other amounts (including fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel and amounts payable under the Agent Fee Letter)
payable to Agent in its capacity as such; second against the next 4 scheduled installments of the Term Loan in direct order of
maturity until such scheduled installments have been paid in full; third, against all other remaining principal installments of
the Term Loan (including the final installment on the Maturity Date) in inverse order of maturity until the principal on the Term Loans
is paid in full; fourth, to payment of all accrued unpaid cash interest on the Obligations; fifth, to payment of any other
amounts owing constituting Obligations; and sixth, after the payment by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of
law, including Sections 9-608(a)(1) and 9-615(a)(3) of the Code (but only after Agent has received what Agent considers reasonable
proof of a subordinate party’s security interest), the surplus, if any, shall be paid to the applicable Grantor or its representatives
or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. In the event that any
such Proceeds are insufficient to pay the Obligations in full, the Credit Parties shall remain liable, jointly and severally, for any
deficiency.

	8.	SUCCESSORS
AND ASSIGNS; tax documentation



 


(a)            Each
Loan Document shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower and each other Credit Party executing such Loan Document,
Agent, each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise provided herein or therein. If more than one party
signs this instrument as Borrower, then the term “Borrower” as used herein shall mean all of such parties, jointly and severally.
Neither Borrower nor any other Credit Party may assign, transfer, hypothecate, delegate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations
or duties under any Loan Document without the prior express written consent of Agent. Any such purported conveyance by Borrower or such
Credit Party without the prior express written consent of Agent shall be void. There shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the
terms and provisions of any of the Loan Documents. Each Lender reserves the right at any time to create and sell participations in the
Loan and the Loan Documents to any other Person (a “Participant”) and to sell, transfer or assign any or all of its
rights in the Loan and under the Loan Documents to any Eligible Assignee (an “Assignee”) acknowledged by Agent; provided,
however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, an assignment to a Disqualified Lender shall require Borrower’s
prior written consent. Any such sale, transfer or assignment shall be effected by a written assignment agreement substantially in the
form of Exhibit J attached hereto or any other form approved by Agent (an “Assignment Agreement”) delivered
by such Assignee and Agent, and such Assignee shall pay to Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500, which shall be paid to the
Agent on the effective date of each such Assignment Agreement, and, if such assignee is not currently a Lender, such assignee shall have
delivered to Agent an administrative questionnaire (in a form provided by Agent), a properly completed and duly executed IRS Form W-9
(or other applicable tax form) and all other documentation and other information about such assignee as required under applicable "know
your customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the USA PATRIOT Act Subject to
acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment Agreement,
the assignee thereunder shall be party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, have
the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt and not withstanding any language to the contrary
in any Loan Document, the Borrower and each Lender hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) Agent shall not be responsible or have any
liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to an Eligible
Assignee (including, without limitation, with respect to CCM Lender) and (b) Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation to
determine whether any Lender or potential Lender is an Eligible Assignee and that the Agent shall have no liability with respect to any
assignment or participation made to any Person which is not an Eligible Assignee (including, without limitation, with respect to CCM Lender).
Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment
Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender and the principal amount of (and
stated interest on) the Term Loan owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In the event of
a conflict between the Register and the records of Borrower or any Lender, the Register shall control absent manifest error. Any assignment
of the Term Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made
in the Register. Any assignment or transfer of all or part of the Term Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only
upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of such Note evidencing the Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment
Agreement or transfer; thereupon a new Note in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the
old Note shall be returned to Borrower marked “canceled.” The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and Lenders
at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 1.7, subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under
Section 8(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 8(b) shall be delivered
to the participating Lender), to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided that such
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 1.7 with respect to any participation than
its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results
from a change in applicable law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation
shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address
of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations
under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose
all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's
interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent
that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form
under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such
participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its
capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.


 






    60


     


    

 


(b)           Any
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall
deliver to Borrower and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation
reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as will enable Borrower or Agent to determine whether or not such Lender 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 paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iv) of
this Section 8(b)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission
would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position
of such Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Borrower:


 


(i)            any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Agent prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that
such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


 


(ii)           any
Lender that is not a U.S. Person (a “Foreign Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver
to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) prior to the date on which such Foreign
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent),
whichever of the following is applicable:


 


		(A)	in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States
is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax
treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such tax treaty;



 


		(B)	executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;



 






    61


     


    

 


		(C)	in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the IRC, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of
the IRC, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the IRC, or a “controlled
foreign corporation” related to Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN-E; or



 


		(D)	to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied
by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W 8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9,
and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and
one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may
provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;



 


(iii)          any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Agent (in such number of copies as shall
be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time
to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as
a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation
as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 


(iv)          if
a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were
to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of
the IRC, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times
reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of
the IRC) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Agent to comply
with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or
to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iv).


 


Each Lender agrees that if any form
or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification
or promptly notify Borrower and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

	9.	AGENT



 


9.1           Appointment
and Duties.


 


(a)            Appointment
of Agent. Each Lender hereby appoints ALTER DOMUS (US) LLC (together with any successor Agent pursuant to Section 9.9)

and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies and perform the duties as are expressly delegated to Agent under such Loan Documents and
(ii) exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.


 


(b)            Duties
as Collateral and Disbursing Agent. Without limiting the generality of clause (a) above and in each case subject to Section 9.5
and any other exculpatory provisions herein or in any other Loan Documents, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority
(to the exclusion of the Lenders), and is hereby authorized, to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders with
respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents (including in any proceeding described in Section 7.1(h) or
(i) or any other bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding), and each Person making any payment in connection with any
Loan Document to any Lender is hereby authorized to make such payment to Agent, (ii) at the direction of the Required Lenders, file
and prove claims and file other documents necessary or desirable to allow the claims of the Lenders with respect to any Obligation in
any proceeding described in Section 7.1(h) or (i) or any other bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding

for purposes of the perfection of all Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein, (iv) manage, supervise

Requirements of Law or otherwise and (vii) execute any amendment, consent or waiver under the Loan Documents on behalf of any Lender
that has consented in writing to such amendment, consent or waiver; provided, however, that Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs
each Lender to act as collateral sub-agent for Agent and the Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all Liens with respect to the Collateral,
including any deposit account maintained by a Credit Party with, and cash and cash equivalents held by, such Lender, and may further authorize
and direct the Lenders to take further actions as collateral sub-agents for purposes of enforcing such Liens or otherwise to transfer
the Collateral subject thereto to Agent, and each Lender hereby agrees to take such further actions to the extent, and only to the extent,
so authorized and directed.


 






    63


     


    

 


(c)            Limited
Duties. Under the Loan Documents, Agent (i) is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders, with duties that are entirely administrative
in nature, notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Agent”, the terms “agent”, “administrative agent”
and “collateral agent” and similar terms in any Loan Document to refer to Agent, which terms are used for title purposes only,
(ii) is not assuming any obligation under any Loan Document other than as expressly set forth therein or any role as agent, fiduciary
or trustee of or for any Lender and (iii) shall have no implied functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or other liabilities
under any Loan Document, and each Lender hereby waives and agrees not to assert any claim against Agent based on the roles, duties and
legal relationships expressly disclaimed in clauses (i) through (iii) above.


 


9.2           Binding
Effect. Each Lender agrees that (i) any action taken by Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if expressly required hereby, a greater
proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, (ii) any action taken by Agent in reliance upon
the instructions of Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) and (iii) the exercise by Agent or the Required
Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.


 


9.3           Use
of Discretion.


 


(a)            No
Action without Instructions. Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take, or to omit to take, any action, including
with respect to enforcement or collection, except any action it is required to take or omit to take (i) under any Loan Document or
(ii) pursuant to instructions from the Required Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion
of the Lenders).


 


(b)            Right
Not to Follow Certain Instructions. Notwithstanding clause (a) above, Agent shall not be required to take, or to omit
to take, any action (i) unless, upon demand, Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders against all costs,
expenses, claims, actions or liabilities that, by reason of such action or omission, may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
Agent or any Related Person thereof or (ii) that is, in the opinion of Agent or its counsel, contrary to any Loan Document or applicable
Requirement of Law.


 


9.4           Delegation
of Rights and Duties. Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies
under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee, co-agent,
employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Lender). The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to
any such Person and to the Related Persons of the Agent and any Person. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct
of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.
Should any instrument in writing from any Credit Party be required by any Person so appointed by Agent for more fully and certainly vesting
in and confirming to him, her or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, such Credit Party shall execute, acknowledge and deliver
any and all such instruments promptly upon request by Agent


 






    64


     


    

 


9.5           Reliance
and Liability.


 


(a)            Agent
may, without incurring any liability hereunder, (i) treat the payee of any Note as its holder until such Note has been assigned in
accordance with Section 8(a), (ii) rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 8(a), (iii) consult
with any of its Related Persons and, whether or not selected by it, any other advisors, accountants and other experts (including advisors
to, and accountants and experts engaged by, any Credit Party) and (iv) rely and act upon any document, notice, request, certificate,
consent, statement, instrument, document, other writing or other and information (including those transmitted by electronic transmission)
and any telephone message or conversation, in each case believed by it to be genuine and transmitted, signed or otherwise authenticated
by the appropriate parties. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall
have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Agent may consult with legal counsel
(who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 


(b)            None
of Agent and its Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with
any Loan Document (x) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under
the circumstances) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable
judgement by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that, no action taken or not taken with the consent or at the request of the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.1(b))
shall be considered gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent. Each
Lender, Borrower and each other Credit Party to this Agreement hereby waive and shall not assert any right, claim or cause of action based
thereon, except to the extent of liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or, as the case may be,
such Related Person (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in connection with the
duties expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the foregoing, Agent:


 


(i)            shall
not be responsible or otherwise incur liability for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions
of the Required Lenders or for the actions or omissions of any of its Related
Persons except to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Agent acted
with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such Related Person;


 






    65


     


    

 


(ii)           shall
not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of
its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity other than in its capacity as
Agent under the Loan Documents or other than in connection with Agent’s duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents


 


(iii)          shall
not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (B) 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, or (C) the
value or the sufficiency of any Collateral.


 


(iv)          shall
not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, sufficiency or
value of, or the creation, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with,
any Loan Document;


 


(v)           makes
no warranty or representation, and shall not be responsible, to any Lender for any statement, document, information, representation or
warranty made or furnished by or on behalf of any Related Person or any Credit Party in connection with any Loan Document or any transaction
contemplated therein or any other document or information with respect to any Credit Party, whether or not transmitted or (except for
documents expressly required under any Loan Document to be transmitted to the Lenders) omitted to be transmitted by Agent, including as
to completeness, accuracy, scope or adequacy thereof, or for the scope, nature or results of any due diligence performed by Agent in connection
with the Loan Documents; and


 


(vi)         shall
not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition
set forth in any Loan Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Credit Party or as to the existence or continuation
or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such
occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from Borrower or any Lender describing such Default or Event of Default clearly
labeled “notice of default” (in which case Agent shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Lenders);


 


and, for each of the items set forth
in clauses (i) through (vi) above, each Lender and Borrower and each other Credit Party to this Agreement hereby
waives and agrees not to assert any right, claim or cause of action it might have against Agent based thereon.


 






    66


     


    

 


9.6           Agent
Individually. Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, acquire Stock of, engage in any kind of business
with, any Credit Party or Affiliate thereof as though it were not acting as Agent and may receive separate fees and other payments therefor.
To the extent Agent or any of its Affiliates makes any Loan or otherwise becomes a Lender hereunder, it shall have and may exercise the
same rights and powers hereunder and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as any other Lender and the terms “Lender”,
 “Required Lender” and any similar terms shall, except where otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, include, without
limitation, Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its individual capacity as Lender or as one of the Required Lenders.


 


9.7           [Intentionally
Omitted].


 


9.8           Expenses;
Indemnities.


 


(a)            Without
limitation of Section 9.8(b) below, each Lender severally agrees to reimburse Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the
extent not timely reimbursed by any Credit Party) promptly upon demand for such Lender’s pro rata share with respect to the Loan
of any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and taxes paid in the name
of, or on behalf of, any Credit Party) that may be incurred by Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation,
syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement (whether through negotiations, through
any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights
or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.


 


(b)           Each
Lender severally further agrees to indemnify Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not timely indemnified by any Credit
Party), based on and to the extent of such Lender’s aggregate pro rata share with respect to the Loan from and against any and all
losses, damages, costs, expenses, (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel to the Agent), claims and liabilities of
any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent or any of its Related Persons
in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document, or any other act, event or transaction
related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent or any
of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to Agent or any
of its Related Persons to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or,
as the case may be, such Related Person, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.


 


(c)           For
purposes of this Section 9.8, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the outstanding
Loans and unused Term Loan Commitments at such time (or if such reimbursement payment is sought after the date on which the Loans have
been paid in full and the Term Loan Commitments are terminated in accordance with such Lender’s pro rata share immediately prior
to the date on which the Loans are paid in full and the Term Loan Commitments are terminated).


 






    67


     


    

 


9.9           Resignation
of Agent.


 


(a)            Agent
may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Lenders and Borrower, effective on the earlier of: (i) forty-five
(45) days after delivery of such notice or (ii) the date of the appointment or a successor Agent selected by the Required Lenders
(the “Resignation Effective Date”). If Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right to
appoint a successor Agent. If, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent having given notice of resignation, no successor Agent
has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may (but shall be under no obligation
to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. Each appointment under this clause (a) shall
be subject to the prior consent of Borrower, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of
a Default.


 


(b)            With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the
Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any
of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed), (ii) the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of Agent until a successor Agent
shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit
of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Agent was,
or because such Agent had been, validly acting as Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 9.3,
the retiring Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent its rights as Agent under the
Loan Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as Agent, a successor Agent shall succeed to, and become
vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents. After the retiring Agent’s
resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article, Section 1.7, Section 1.10 and Section 10.2
shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its designees and their respective Related
Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting
as Administrative Agent


 


9.10         Release
of Collateral. Each Lender hereby consents to the release and hereby directs Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (ii) below,
release or subordinate) any Lien held by Agent for the benefit of the Lenders against (i) any Collateral that is sold by a Credit
Party in an Asset Sale permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a valid waiver or consent), (ii) any property subject
to a Lien permitted hereunder to secure Purchase Money Obligations, and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Credit Parties, upon
the Termination Date. Each Lender hereby directs Agent, and Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of reasonable advance notice from Borrower,
to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the Liens when and as directed
in this Section 9.10. Upon request by Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority
to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Credit Party from its obligations under
any Loan Document, and Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking any such action until it receives such written confirmation from
the Required Lenders.

	10.	MISCELLANEOUS



 


10.1         Complete
Agreement; Modification of Agreement.


 


(a)            This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
and thereof, supersede all prior agreements, commitments, understandings or inducements (oral or written, expressed or implied). Borrower
and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall have all duties and obligations under this Agreement
and such other Loan Documents from the date of its execution and delivery, regardless of whether the Loan has been funded at that time.


 


(b)            No
amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document and no consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed (1) in the case of an amendment, consent or waiver to cure any ambiguity, omission,
defect or inconsistency or granting a new Lien for the benefit of the Lenders or extending an existing Lien over additional property,
by Agent and Borrower and any other Credit Party which is a party to such agreement, (2) in the case of any other waiver or consent,
by Agent and the Required Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (3) in the case of any other amendment,
by Agent and the Required Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and Borrower and any other Credit Party which
is a party to such agreement; provided, however, that no amendment, consent or waiver described in clause (2) or (3) above
shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected thereby (or by Agent with the consent of such Lender), in addition
to any other Person the signature of which is otherwise required pursuant to any Loan Document, do any of the following:


 


(i)            waive
any condition specified in Section 2.1, except any condition referring to any other provision of any Loan Document;


 


(ii)           increase
the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender or subject such Lender to any additional material obligation;


 


(iii)          reduce
(including through release, forgiveness, assignment or otherwise) (A) the principal amount of, the interest rate on, or any obligation
of Borrower to repay (whether or not on a fixed date), any outstanding Loan owing to such Lender, or (B) any Fee or accrued interest
payable to such Lender; provided, however, that this clause (iii) does not apply to any change to any provision increasing
any interest rate or Fee during the continuance of a Default or to any payment of any such increase;


 






    69


     


    

 


(iv)         waive
or postpone any scheduled maturity date or other scheduled date fixed for the payment, in whole or in part, of principal of or interest
on any Term Loan or Fee owing to such Lender or for the reduction of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment; provided, however, that
this clause (iv) does not apply to any change to Mandatory Prepayments, including those required under Section 1.2,
or to the application of any payment, including as set forth in Section 1.8;


 


(v)          except
as provided in Section 9.10, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or any Guarantor from its guarantee of any
Obligation of Borrower except in accordance with the provisions hereof;


 


(vi)         reduce
or increase the proportion of Lenders required for the Lenders (or any subset thereof) to take any action hereunder or change the definition
of the term “Required Lenders”; or


 


(vii)        amend
Section 10.14 or this Section 10.1;


 


and provided, further, that (x)(A) any
waiver of any payment applied pursuant to Section 1.8 to, and any modification of the application of any such payment to the
Term Loan shall require the consent of the Required Lenders, and (B) any change to the definition of the term “Required Lenders”
shall require the consent of the Required Lenders, (y) no amendment, waiver or consent shall affect the rights or duties under any
Loan Document of, or any payment to, Agent (or otherwise modify any provision of Section 9 or the application thereof) unless
in writing and signed by Agent in addition to any signature otherwise required and (z) the consent of Borrower shall not be required
to change any order of priority set forth in Section 1.8.


 


(c)            Each
waiver or consent under any Loan Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was
given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party shall entitle any Credit Party to any notice or demand in the same, similar or other
circumstances. No failure on the part of any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right.


 


10.2         Expenses.
Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Agent and each Initial Commitment Party (but not any Assignee or Participants) for all reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of all counsel retained in connection therewith, limited
to one firm of outside counsel to Agent; one firm of counsel for each of the Initial Commitment Parties; one specialty intellectual property
counsel to the Initial Commitment Parties; and Agent;; if necessary, a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may
include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions; solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest,
one additional counsel to each relevant jurisdiction for all such affected Persons taken as a whole), incurred in connection with: (a) the
preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, performance, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents and the preservation
of any rights thereunder; (b) collection, including deficiency collections; (c) any amendment, waiver or other modification
with respect to any Loan Document or advice in connection with the administration of the Loan or the rights thereunder; and (d) any
litigation, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by or between any combination of Agent, any Lender, Borrower or any
other Person), and an appeal or review thereof, in any way relating to the Collateral, any Loan Document, or any action taken or any other
agreements to be executed or delivered in connection therewith, whether as a party, witness or otherwise. The Borrower’s obligations
under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of,
a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.


 






    70


     


    

 


10.3         No
Waiver. Neither Agent’s failure, at any time, to require strict performance by Borrower or any other Credit Party of any provision
of any Loan Document, nor Agent’s or any Lender’s failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege
hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof or waive, affect or diminish any right of Agent or any Lender thereafter to demand strict
compliance and performance therewith. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other
or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Any suspension or waiver of a Default or other provision
under the Loan Documents shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Default or other provision under any Loan Document, and shall not
be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that Agent or any Lender would otherwise have had on any future occasion. None of the undertakings,
indemnities, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of Borrower or any other Credit Party to Agent or any Lender contained
in any Loan Document and no Default by Borrower or any other Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be deemed to have been suspended
or waived by Agent or any Lender, unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer or other authorized
employee of Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, and directed to Borrower, specifying such suspension or waiver (and then such waiver
shall be effective only to the extent therein expressly set forth), and neither Agent nor any Lender shall, by any act (other than execution
of a formal written waiver), delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder.


 


10.4         Severability;
Section Titles. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of any Loan Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or
the remaining provisions of such Loan Document. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in the Loan Documents, no termination or cancellation
(regardless of cause or procedure) of any financing arrangement under the Loan Documents shall in any way affect or impair the Obligations,
duties, covenants, representations and warranties, indemnities, and liabilities of Borrower or any other Credit Party or the rights of
Agent or any Lender relating to any unpaid Obligation, (due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated), or any transaction or
event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or event, the performance of which is not required until after the Maturity
Date, all of which shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive such termination or cancellation and shall continue in full
force and effect until the Termination Date; provided, that (i) the obligations to provide ESG Data, including under Sections 4.1(n) and
3.41 with respect to ESG Data shall survive until all obligations thereunder have been satisfied to Agent’s and Required Lenders’
satisfaction (including with respect to each Fiscal Year in which any Obligations were outstanding) and (ii) all indemnity obligations
of the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents shall survive the Termination Date. The Section titles contained in any Loan Document
are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between parties hereto.


 






    71


     


    

 


10.5         Authorized
Signature. Until Agent shall be notified in writing by Borrower or any other Credit Party to the contrary, the signature upon any
document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto and believed by Agent or any of Agent’s officers, agents, or employees to be that
of an officer of Borrower or such other Credit Party shall bind Borrower and such other Credit Party and be deemed to be the act of Borrower
or such other Credit Party affixed pursuant to and in accordance with resolutions duly adopted by Borrower’s or such other Credit
Party’s Board of Directors, and Agent shall be entitled to assume the authority of each signature and authority of the Person whose
signature it is or appears to be unless the Person acting in reliance thereon shall have actual knowledge to the contrary.


 


10.6         Notices
Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever any notice, demand, request or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon
any party by any other party, or whenever any party desires to give or serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, each communication shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or
delivered (a) upon the earlier of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the United States Mail, registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid, (b) upon transmission, when sent by electronic mail transmission
(with confirmation of transmission), (c) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier with all charges
prepaid or (d) when hand-delivered, all of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address or e-mail
address indicated in Schedule C or to such other address (or e-mail address) as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided.

pursuant to this Section 10.17.


 


(d)            Unavailability

from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of
such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will
not be representative, then the Agent may elect to use another interest period for such Benchmark that is being published and is representative

10.18       Voting
Rights of CCM Lender. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except for the
Term Loan Commitment held by it on the Closing Date and the Term Loans made by it on the Closing Date, CCM Lender shall not hold any Term
Loans or Term Loan Commitments and shall not be an Eligible Assignee, and any purported assignment or participation in any Term Loan Commitments
or Term Loans to CCM Lender shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, CCM Lender shall not have any right
to (i) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among Agent or any Lender (or any one or more
of them) to which representatives of Credit Parties are not invited, or (ii) receive any information or material prepared by Agent
or any Lender (or any one or more of them) or any communication by or among Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such
information or materials have been made available to any Credit Party or its representatives. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, (x) under no circumstances shall CCM Lender
be permitted to (A) exercise any voting rights or other privileges with respect to any Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans, owned
by, or maintained for the benefit of, CCM Lender, or (B) have voting rights or other privileges under the Loan Documents (and all
voting percentages shall be recalculated to give effect to such voting nullification), except, in each case, for voting rights pertaining
to those matters that require the consent of each Lender or each directly affected Lender and, in each case, for those matters that would
adversely affect CCM Lender in any disproportionate and material respect
as compared to other Lenders and (y) no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any Loan Document
shall deprive CCM Lender of any payments to which CCM
Lender is entitled under the Loan Documents without CCM Lender
providing its written consent. In furtherance of the foregoing, CCM Lender
agrees to execute and deliver to Agent any instrument reasonably requested by Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) to evidence
the voting of its interest as a Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.18; provided, further, that if
CCM Lender fails to promptly execute such instrument such failure shall
in no way prejudice any of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights under this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
for purposes of determining whether Required Lenders or all directly affected Lenders or all Lenders have (1) consented (or not consented)
to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure
by any Credit Party therefrom, (2) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (3) directed or required Agent
or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, CCM
Lender shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting
with respect to such matter by Lenders other than CCM Lender. For the
avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.18 will not apply to any Assignee of CCM Lender permitted under Section 8(a).

10.19       Erroneous
Payments.


 


(a)            Each
Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Agent notifies such Lender that Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received
by such Lender from Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly
received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest,
fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands in writing the return of such
Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter,
return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds
(in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Agent) in respect of each
day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid
to the Agent in same day funds at the Federal Funds Rate; and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not
assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment
with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including, without limitation,
waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar theory or doctrine. A notice of the Agent to any Lender
under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.


 


(b)            Without
limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment from the Agent
(or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment
sent by the Agent, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by notice of payment, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes
aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each case, if an error has been made each such
Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, agrees not to assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives,
any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for
the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value”
or any similar theory or doctrine.  Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one
Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Agent, it shall promptly, but
in all events no later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion
thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect
of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount
is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the Federal Funds Rate.


 


(c)            The
Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered
from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason (and without limiting the Agent’s rights
and remedies under this Section 10.19), the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such
amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower
or any other Credit Party.


 






    79


     


    

 



 


(d)            In
addition to any rights and remedies of the Agent provided by law, Agent shall have the right, without prior notice to any Lender, any
such notice being expressly waived by such Lender to the extent permitted by applicable law, with respect to any Erroneous Payment for
which a demand has been made in accordance with this Section 10.19 and which has not been returned to the Agent, to set off and appropriate
and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding trust accounts),
in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Agent or any of its Affiliate, branch or agency thereof to or for the credit
or the account of such Lender. Agent agrees promptly to notify the Lender after any such setoff and application made by Agent; provided,
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.


 


(e)            Each
party’s obligations under this Section 10.19 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, the termination
of the Term Loan Commitment or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.


 


11.            GUARANTEE


 


11.1            The
Guarantee. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee, as a primary obligor and not
as a surety to Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated
maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on (including any
interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Title 11 of the United States Code after any bankruptcy
or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code whether or not any such interest, fees, costs or charges are allowed in
any proceeding thereunder) the Loan made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, Borrower, and all other Obligations
from time to time owing to Agent and the Lenders by any Credit Party under any Loan Document (such obligations being herein collectively
called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if Borrower or other Guarantor(s) shall
fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors
will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment
or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration
or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.


 






    80


     


    

 


11.2            Obligations
Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 11.1 shall constitute
a guarantee of payment and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional,
joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower
under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release
or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever
that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair
the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as
described above:


 


(a)            at
any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time
for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall
be waived;


 


(b)            any
of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to
herein or therein shall be done or omitted;


 


(c)            the
maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect,
or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in
any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole
or in part or otherwise dealt with;


 


(d)            any
Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of any Lender or Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail
to be perfected; or


 


(e)            the
release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 11.9.


 


Except for notices expressly provided for hereunder
or under any other Loan Document, the Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices
whatsoever, and any requirement that Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against Borrower under this Agreement
or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other
guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Subject to Section 10.1, the Guarantors waive any and all
notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof
of reliance by Agent or any Lender upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them,
shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between Borrower
and Agent or any Lender shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This
Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right
of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by Agent or any Lender, and the obligations
and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by Agent or any Lender or any other
person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all
or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto.
This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors
and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns.


 






    81


     


    

 


11.3            Reinstatement.
The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article XI shall be automatically reinstated if
and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of Borrower or other Credit Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations
is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings
in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.


 


11.4            Subrogation;
Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the unconditional payment and satisfaction
in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate obligations for indemnification or reimbursement for which no claim
has been asserted) it shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising against any Credit Party by reason of any performance
by it of its guarantee in Section 11.1, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against Borrower or any Guarantor of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Credit Party to another Credit Party
or a Subsidiary of a Credit Party permitted pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be subordinated to such Credit Party’s Obligations
on terms reasonably acceptable to Agent and the Required Lenders.


 


11.5            Remedies.
The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations
of Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 7.2
(and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 7.2) for purposes
of Section 11.1, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations
from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being
deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrower) shall forthwith become
due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 11.1.


 


11.6            Instrument
for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article XI
constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event
of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York
CPLR Section 3213.


 


11.7            Continuing
Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article XI is a continuing guarantee of payment,
and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising. The guarantee in this Article XI shall terminate upon payment in
full of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate obligations for indemnification or reimbursement for which no claim has been asserted)
and the termination of the Term Loan Commitments, and Agent shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to effect such termination.


 


11.8            General
Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate
limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 11.1 would otherwise
be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account
of the amount of its liability under Section 11.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of
such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Credit Party or any other person, be automatically limited and
reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 11.10) that is valid
and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.


 






    82


     


    

 


11.9            Release
of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, all or
substantially all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred (a “Transferred Guarantor”)
to a person or persons, none of which is Borrower or a Subsidiary, such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale
or transfer, be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10.2 hereof) and
its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Loan Document and the pledge of such Equity Interests to
Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be automatically released, and, so long as Borrower shall have provided Agent such certifications
or documents as Agent shall reasonably request, Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effect each release described in this
Section 11.9 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Loan Documents.


 


11.10          Right
of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Subsidiary
Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled
to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share
of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 11.4.
The provisions of this Section 11.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor
to Agent and the Lenders, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to Agent and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by
such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

capitalized terms are used herein as defined in the Agreement) by and among the Credit Party, the other Credit Parties signatory thereto,
the lenders from time to time party thereto and Agent. Each Credit Party irrevocably waives any right to commence any suit or action,
in law or equity, against any person or entity which acts in reliance upon or acknowledges the authority granted under this Power of Attorney.
The Power of Attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest, and may not be revoked or canceled by Credit Party until the Termination
Date.


 


Until the Termination Date, after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Credit Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent (and all officers, employees
or agents designated by Agent), with full power of substitution, as Credit Party’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable
power and authority in the place and stead of Credit Party and in the name of Credit Party or in its own name, in Agent’s discretion,
to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable
to accomplish the purposes of the Loan Documents and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Credit Party hereby grants to
Agent the power and right, on behalf of Credit Party, without notice to or assent by Credit Party, to do the following: (a) sign
and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments,
verifications, and notices in connection with any of the Collateral; (b) effect any repairs to any Collateral, or continue or obtain
any insurance with respect to any Collateral and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and costs thereof, and make, settle and
adjust all claims under such policies of insurance, and make all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies; (c) pay
or discharge any taxes, liens, security interests, or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against any Collateral; (d) defend
any suit, action or proceeding brought against Credit Party with respect to any Collateral if Credit Party does not defend such suit,
action or proceeding or if Agent believes that Credit Party is not pursuing such defense in a manner that will maximize the recovery to
Agent, and settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action, or proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, give such discharges
or releases as Agent may deem appropriate; and (e) sell, transfer, pledge, compromise payment or make any other agreement with respect
to, or otherwise deal with any Collateral, and execute, in connection with such sale or action, any endorsements, assignments or other
instruments of conveyance or transfer in connection therewith; and to do, at Agent’s option and Credit Party’s expense, all
acts and other things that Agent reasonably deems necessary to perfect, preserve, or realize upon any Collateral and Agent’s Liens
thereon, all as fully and effectively as Credit Party might do. Agent agrees that it shall not exercise any power or authority granted
under this Power of Attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.


 


Credit Party hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted
by law, all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

This Solvency Certificate (this
 “Certificate”) is being delivered on behalf of DRAGONFLY ENERGY CORP., a Nevada corporation (the “Borrower”)
and DRAGONFLY ENERGY HOLDINGS CORP. (f/k/a Chardan Nextech Acquisition 2 Corp.) (“Holdings” and together with Borrower
and each other Credit Party to the Loan Agreement, each, a “Credit Party” and collectively, the “Credit Parties”),
pursuant to Sections 2.1(b) and 3.16 of that certain Term Loan, Guarantee and Security Agreement, dated as of the date
hereof (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, Holdings, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and
ALTER DOMUS (US) LLC, as agent (in such capacity, “Agent”). All capitalized terms used and not defined herein have
the meanings herein as set forth in the Loan Agreement.


 


I, the undersigned, am the
acting [__] of the Borrower and Holdings, and I am familiar with the facts contained herein. By executing this Certificate I hereby certify,
solely in my capacity as the [__] of the Borrower and Holdings and not in any individual capacity, as of the date of this Certificate,
that:


 


1.            Both
before and after giving effect to (a) the Loan, the issuance of the Guarantees of the Obligations and the pledge of assets as security
therefor by all of the Grantors, (b) the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loan pursuant to the instructions of Borrower, (c) the
consummation of the Transactions and (d) the payment and accrual of all transaction costs in
connection with the foregoing, Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole are Solvent (as defined below).


 


“Solvent” means, with respect
to any Person on a particular date, that on such date (a) the assets of such Person, at a fair valuation, exceed its liabilities,
including contingent liabilities, (b) the remaining capital of such Person is not unreasonably small to conduct its business and
(c) such Person will not have incurred debts, and does not have the present intent to incur debts, beyond its ability to pay such
debts as they mature. For purposes of this definition, “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means
any (i) right to payment, whether or not such right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured,
unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured, or (ii) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance
if such breach gives rise to a right to payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent,
matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured. In computing the amount of contingent liabilities of any Person on any
date, such liabilities shall be computed at the amount that, in the judgment of the Agent in light of all facts and circumstances existing
at such time, represents the amount of such liabilities that reasonably can be expected to become actual or matured liabilities.
