THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth below, the

AGREEMENT


 


1.            COLLATERAL
AGENT.


 


1.1             
Appointment of Collateral Agent. Appointment of Collateral Agent. Each of
the Secured Parties appoints, designates and authorizes Ergo Strategic Partners, LLC as the Collateral Agent for all Collateral,
and the Collateral Agent hereby agrees to act as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent agrees, to take such action on its behalf
under the provisions of this Agreement and each Note and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any Note, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto, including to execute and enter into this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and any other instruments relating to this
Agreement and the Notes (the “Purchase Documents”). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained
elsewhere in any Purchase Document, the Collateral Agent (which term used in this sentence, and in Section 1.2 and Section 1.5
shall include reference to its affiliates, and its own and its affiliates' officers, directors, employees and agents) shall not
have any duties or responsibilities, other than the duty to perform its express obligations under this Agreement and the other
applicable Purchase Documents in accordance with their respective terms, subject in all events to the provisions of this Agreement
limiting the responsibility or liability of the Collateral Agent hereunder, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to
have any fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party under this Agreement, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities,
duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Purchase Document or otherwise exist against
the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein
and in the Purchase Agreement or any Note with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other
implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter
of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
By acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement (whether by execution hereof or under the terms of the Purchase Agreement), each
Secured Party that is not a party to this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to the appointment and authorization set
forth in the first two sentences of this subsection and the other provisions of this Section 1.

shall not limit any liability the Collateral Agent may have arising solely in respect of its capacity as a Secured Party)), or
(ii) responsible in any manner to any Secured Party for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Company,
or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or any other Purchase Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or
other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, any Purchase Document,
