revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization, or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.

3.14. Permits. The Company has all franchises, permits, licenses, and any similar authority necessary for the conduct of its business as

interest free and clear of any liens, claims or encumbrances other than to the lessors or such property of assets. All facilities, machinery, equipment, fixtures and other properties owned, leased or used by the Company are in good operating
condition and repair and are reasonably fit and usable for the purposes for which they are being used. 
 4. Lender’s Representations and
Warranties. As an inducement to the Company to issue the Series D Units, and to undertake the other duties and obligations arising under this Agreement, Lender represents and warrants as follows to the Company that: 

4.1. Authorization. Lender has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes its valid and
legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights
generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies, and (iii) as limited by laws relating to the enforceability of voting agreements and arrangements.

 4.2. Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Lender hereby confirms, that the Series D Units to be received by Lender and the Common
Stock issuable upon conversion thereof (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for Lender’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof,
and that Lender has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Lender further represents that Lender does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or
arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities. 

4.3. Disclosure of Information. Lender believes it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding
whether to accept the Series D Units. Lender further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Series D Units and the business, properties, prospects and
financial condition of the Company. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 3 of this Agreement or the right of Lender to rely thereon. 

4.4. Investment Experience. Lender is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able
to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Series D Units. Lender also
represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Series D Units. 
 4.5. Accredited Investor. Lender is an
“accredited investor” within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect. 

4.6. Restricted Securities. Lender understands that the Securities it is acquiring are characterized as “restricted
securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without
registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, Lender represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act. 

  
 7 








 4.7. Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations
set forth above, Lender further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by this Section 4, provided and to the
extent this Section, the Investors’ Rights Agreement and the Voting Agreement, and such agreements are then applicable, and: 

(i) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is
made in accordance with such registration statement; or 
 (ii) Lender shall have notified the Company of the proposed
disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if reasonably requested by the Company, Lender shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act. 
 4.8.
Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Securities may bear the following legend: 
 “THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.” 
 5. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall, at
the option of Lender, be an Event of Default under this Agreement: 
 5.1. The Company’s failure to pay any obligation owing under the
Note when due; 
 5.2. The representations and warranties of the Company made herein are false or misleading in any material respects; 

5.3. The Company’s failure to comply with any of the other provisions of the Note or this Agreement not otherwise specifically addressed
in this Article 5 within twenty (20) days’ written notice to the Company from Lender. 
 6. Default Costs. Should an Event of Default
occur, the Company will pay to Lender all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) reasonably incurred by the Lender for the purpose of enforcing its rights hereunder. 

7. Remedies Upon Default. 
 7.1.
General. Upon any Event of Default, Lender may pursue any remedy available at law, or in equity to collect, enforce or satisfy any Obligations then owing. 

  
 8

(iii) Pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity.

State of Utah as applied to agreements among Utah residents entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware. 
 8.3.
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

8.4. Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in
construing or interpreting this Agreement.

 8.7.
Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written
consent of the Company and Lender. 

  
 9 








 8.8. Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be
unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 

8.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Note constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the matters set
forth herein, and neither Party shall be liable or bound to the other Party in any manner by any warranties, representations, or covenants except as specifically set forth herein or therein.

8.11. Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Party, upon any
breach, default or noncompliance by the other Party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in
any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It is further agreed that any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on any Lender’s part of any breach, default or noncompliance under this Agreement or
