 9.         Effectiveness of Agreements.  The subordinations and relative priority agreements set forth herein are expressly conditioned upon the non-voidability and the perfection of the security interest or lien to which another security interest or lien is subordinated and if the security interest or lien to which another security interest or lien is subordinated is not perfected or is voidable for any reason, then the subordination provided for herein shall not be effective as to the particular Collateral encumbered by the unperfected or voidable security interest or lien.  The agreements set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of:   the indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations to Creditor, and the termination of the Creditor Documents; or  the indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations to Lender, and the termination of the Lender’s Documents, regardless of whether any party hereto in the future seeks to rescind, amend, terminate or reform by litigation or otherwise, their respective agreements with Borrower or any other Obligor.

 (a)        Except as set forth in subsection (b) below, Creditor hereby agrees that all of the Obligations to Creditor are subordinate to the Obligations to Lender, and Creditor hereby subordinates payment and performance by Borrower and any other Obligor of all Obligations to Creditor in favor of payment and performance by Borrower and any other Obligor of all Obligations to Lender.  Creditor further agrees that it will not demand, accept, or receive from Borrower or any other Obligor any payment or performance of any Obligations to Creditor (except for Permitted Payments, as defined in subsection (b) below) until all of Obligations to Lender have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, and performed in favor of Lender, and Lender’s Documents have been terminated.  If any payments in violation of the foregoing sentence are remitted to Creditor by Borrower or any other Obligor, Creditor will receive them in trust for Lender and will forward to Lender the same forthwith.
 (b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default exists under Lender’s Documents and no default has occurred under the Creditor’s Documents, Borrower may pay Creditor (I) regularly scheduled monthly or quarterly payments of interest and principal as set forth (and to the extent set forth) in the Creditor’s Documents (the “Regular Periodic Payments”), and (II) the entire principal amount and all accrued and unpaid non-default interest thereon as set forth (and to the extent set forth) in the Creditor’s Documents on the earlier of (A) June 11, 2020 or (B) the closing date of any public or private offering of equity or debt of the Borrower for gross proceeds to Borrower of at least $1,000,000.00 (the “Gross Offering Proceeds”).  For the avoidance of doubt, Regular Periodic Payments shall not include any prepayments of principal or interest.  For the avoidance of doubt, permitted payments under the foregoing clause (II) (collectively with Regular Periodic Payments, “Permitted Payments”) shall not exceed the amount of Gross Offering Proceeds received by Borrower.  
 5
 
 (c)        Upon a distribution of the assets or readjustment of the indebtedness of any Obligor by reason of liquidation, composition, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding involving the readjustment of all or any of the debts of such Obligor, or the application of the assets of such Obligor to the payment or liquidation thereof, Creditor acknowledges that the payment and satisfaction of the Obligations to Lender in full, in cash, shall have priority over the payment and satisfaction of the Obligations to Creditor.

Creditor agrees that if Creditor does not file a proof of claim, Lender may do so on behalf of Creditor.  If Creditor does file a proof of claim in respect of the Obligations to Creditor, Creditor shall execute and deliver to Lender such assignments or other instruments as Lender may require to enable Lender to collect all dividends, payments and distributions which may be made at any time on account of the Obligations to Creditor until the Obligations to Lender are irrevocably paid in full in cash and the loan documents are terminated.

Creditor agrees that it will not, without Lender’s prior written consent, obtain (and represents and warrants that in anticipation of entering into this Agreement it has not obtained) any new or additional collateral from Borrower or any other Obligor to secure any of Obligations to Creditor.

 Lender desires to permit the use of its cash collateral and/or to provide post-petition financing to such Obligor, Creditor agrees as follows:   adequate notice to Creditor shall be deemed to have been provided for such use of cash collateral or post-petition financing if Creditor receives notice as provided under applicable local rules or pursuant to an order of the bankruptcy court with respect to a hearing on a request to approve such use of cash collateral or post-petition financing; and  no objection shall be raised by Creditor to any such use of cash collateral or post-petition financing on any ground. Creditor agrees that no objection shall be raised by Creditor to any motion made by Lender and/or such Obligor (if such motion of Obligor is supported or consented to by Lender):   to allow the sale of Collateral free and clear of all liens pursuant to §363 of the Code, and Creditor consents to such sale; for relief from the automatic stay under the Code to foreclose upon and sell any Collateral; or  seeking adequate protection under the Code.  Without Lender’s prior written consent, Creditor agrees that it will not seek to provide post-petition financing secured by liens on any Collateral that are pari passu or senior to the liens of Lender or seek adequate protection.
 14.       Waiver of Marshalling.  Creditor waives and renounces any rights, under any applicable law, which it may have, whether at law or in equity, to require Lender to marshal any of the collateral subject hereto or any other assets of Borrower or any other Obligor, or any portion thereof, or to otherwise seek satisfaction from any particular assets of Borrower or any other Obligor or from any third party.
 15.       Agreement to Hold In Trust.  If Creditor shall receive any payment on account of proceeds of sale or other disposition of Collateral, then it shall hold such payment in trust for the benefit of the Lender and promptly pay it over to the Lender for application in payment of Obligations to Lender.  
 16.        Rights to Amend Documents And Discontinue Financing.  Lender hereby reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify, amend, waive or release any of the terms of Lender’s Documents.  Creditor shall not modify, amend, waive or release any of the terms of Creditor’s Documents with the prior written consent of the Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 17.        Additional Documents.  Creditor agrees to execute and deliver, upon the request of the Lender, such documents and instruments (appropriate for filing, if requested) as may be necessary or appropriate to fully implement or to fully evidence the understandings and agreements contained in this Agreement.  In furtherance of the foregoing, Creditor hereby consents to any sale or other disposition of Collateral approved by Lender regardless of whether an event of default exists under Lender’s Documents or Creditor’s Documents and regardless of whether Creditor receives any proceeds from such sale or other disposition, and Creditor agrees to release its liens and security interests (if any) on Collateral.  Creditor waives any claim against Lender arising out of or relating to Creditor’s consent to such sale or other disposition.  
 Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that all or part of any of Obligations to Lender are hereafter refinanced, Creditor and Borrower each agrees to enter into one or more new agreements with the refinancing lender or lenders on terms identical to those of this Agreement (including with respect to the subordination of Creditor’s claims and liens).

 8
 
  18.       Distribution of Proceeds of Collateral.  All proceeds of Collateral subject to this Agreement received by Creditor or Lender upon the exercise of any of its respective rights therein shall be distributed as follows:
 (a)        Proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied to Obligations to Lender in accordance with the terms of Lender’s Documents.
 (b)        After all Obligations to Lender have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, and Lender’s Documents have all been terminated, the balance, if any, of the proceeds of any Collateral subject to this Agreement shall be paid to Creditor.
 (c)        After all Obligations to Creditor have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, and Creditor’s Documents have all been terminated, the balance, if any, of the proceeds of any Collateral subject to this Agreement shall be paid to Borrower or as otherwise required by law.
 19.        Independent Credit Investigations.  Neither Creditor nor Lender shall be responsible to the other for Borrower’s or any other Obligor’s solvency, financial condition or ability to repay any Obligations to Creditor or any Obligations to Lender, or for statements of Borrower or any other Obligor, oral or written, or for the validity,  priority, sufficiency or enforceability of Obligations to Creditor, Obligations to Lender, Creditor’s Documents, Lender’s Documents, or any lien or security interest granted by Borrower or any other Obligor to Creditor or Lender.  Each of Creditor and Lender has entered into its respective financing agreements with Borrower and any and all other Obligors based upon its own independent investigation and makes no warranty or representation to the other nor does it rely upon any warranty or representation of the other with respect to any of such matters.
 20.       GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS.  ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OR, AT THE SOLE OPTION OF LENDER, IN ANY OTHER COURT IN WHICH LENDER SHALL INITIATE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PROCEEDINGS AND WHICH HAS SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER IN CONTROVERSY.  BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT (I) ACCEPTS THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY, (II) WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS, (III) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON IT MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 HEREOF, AND (IV) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY ACTION INSTITUTED HEREUNDER AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT ANY DEFENSE BASED ON LACK OF JURISDICTION, VENUE OR CONVENIENCE.

 23.       WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.  EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.
