Exhibit 10.1


 


WAIVER AND AMENDMENT
TO TERM LOAN AGREEMENT


 


This WAIVER AND AMENDMENT
TO TERM LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) dated as of March 2, 2022, is made by and among ARC NYC570SEVENTH,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “Borrower”),
CAPITAL ONE, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as administrative agent (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity and any replacement
administrative agent, “Administrative Agent”) and in its capacity as the sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner
(in such capacities, “Sole Lead Arranger” and “Sole Bookrunner,” respectively), and
the lenders that are or hereafter become party to the Loan Agreement (as such term is defined below) (each, a “Lender”,
collectively, the “Lenders”). The Borrower, the undersigned Lenders and the Administrative Agent are referred
to collectively as the “Parties”, and individually as a “Party”. Each capitalized
term used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Loan Agreement.


 


WITNESSETH:


 


WHEREAS, the Parties
have heretofore entered into that certain Term Loan Agreement, dated as of April 26, 2019 (as the same may be amended, restated, extended,
joined, supplemented and/or modified from time to time, by and among the Borrower, the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent, the “Loan
Agreement”);


 


WHEREAS, as of the
last day of the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2021 (“Q3 2021”), a DSCR Breach and Debt Yield Breach
were ongoing for four (4) consecutive calendar quarters;


 


WHEREAS, the Borrower
has actively engaged in discussions with the Lenders since October 2021 to seek relief in relation to the “right size” requirements
in the Loan Agreement and the associated default.


 


WHEREAS, absent these
discussions, Borrower would have breached the covenant contained in Section 5.33.3 of the Loan Agreement by failing to either (i) prepay,
in compliance with Section 2.3.3 of the Loan Agreement, a portion of the unpaid Principal or (ii) post with Administrative Agent cash,
or a letter of credit, as additional collateral for the Debt in an amount sufficient to cure the applicable DSCR Breach and Debt Yield
Breach when such amounts are reflected as reducing the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, within fifty (50) days after the end
of Q3 2021, and such breach of the covenant in Section 5.33.3 of the Loan Agreement would have constituted an Event of Default under the
Loan Agreement (the “Potential Existing Default”);


 


WHEREAS, Borrower has
requested that the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, waive the Potential Existing Default and make certain amendments and
modifications to the Loan Agreement as set forth herein; and


 


WHEREAS, subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent is willing to waive the Potential Existing Default and to make certain
amendments and modifications to the Loan Agreement, all as set forth herein.


 






     


     


    

 


NOW, THEREFORE, the
Parties, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:


 


1.         Amendments to Loan Agreement.


 


(a)        Effective upon the conclusion of the Interest Period now in effect under the Loan Agreement, the following defined terms are hereby
deleted in their entirety, whether such terms are defined in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement or elsewhere in the Loan Agreement:


 


		·	LIBOR



		·	LIBOR Floor



		·	LIBOR Based Loans



		·	LIBOR Rate



		·	USD-LIBOR-Reference Banks



		·	Alternate Rate



		·	Alternate Rate Loan



		·	Alternate Interest Rate Election Notice



 


(b)        The following definitions
in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:


 


“Gross Income:
as of any determination date, all rentals, revenues, income and other recurring forms of consideration, received by, or paid to or for
the account of or for the benefit of, Borrower resulting from or attributable to the operation, leasing and occupancy of the Property
(including any expense reimbursements, utilities, storage rental, laundry rental and other miscellaneous income from the Property, but
excluding pre-paid rents and security deposits) determined on a cash basis for the trailing three months, annualized, and using for all
calculations hereunder the actual vacancy rate of the Property at the time of such calculation; specifically excluding, however (i) extraordinary,
or one-time items; (ii) all rents and/or other income derived from any lease (a) whose
tenant is in bankruptcy or is the subject of any other insolvency proceeding, (b) whose (A) lease expiration date is less than or equal
to six months from the time of such calculation, (B) lease term has expired and has not been renewed, or (C) whose tenant has given notice
of its intent to terminate the lease, in each case, during the applicable test period unless a substitute lease with a tenant and on terms
reasonably acceptable to the Lender has been entered into for the space that is the subject of such lease, (c) whose tenant is in default
under the terms, conditions and provisions of said lease, beyond any applicable grace and/or cure period, (d) any tenant(s) whose rent
payment is in arrears for greater than sixty (60) days from the date of any test, unless said tenant is contesting rent in accordance
with the terms of its Lease, (e) which is a “master lease” (i.e., a lease which is entered into by Borrower, as landlord,
with Guarantor, any affiliate or subsidiary of Borrower or Guarantor, or Borrower itself, as tenant), or (f) whose tenant is not in occupancy
or is not paying rent (other than tenants scheduled to commence rent payments within ninety (90) days of the applicable date of determination,
as determined by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); (iii) any revenue derived from a month-to-month tenancy, whether
subject to a written instrument or otherwise; and/or (iv) any and all rent concessions granted by the Borrower in connection with
any Lease. Gross Income shall be adjusted to include free rent periods for leased tenants in occupancy, subject to a maximum of one and
one-half months free rent per lease year, not to exceed twelve (12) months total. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, all prepaid
rents and all prepaid parking charges (if any) shall spread over the time period to which they pertain. For the purposes of clause (f)
of this definition, a tenant shall be considered to be “in occupancy” if, as of the applicable date of determination, such
tenant shall be subject to a current and binding lease, shall be in actual physical possession and use of its leased space in the Property
for the purposes of conducting its day-to-day business operations under the lease, and shall not have vacated, abandoned, “gone
dark”, or otherwise surrendered its space in the Property; provided, however, that a tenant shall not cease to be
 “in occupancy” solely for the reason that some or all of its employees are, as of the applicable date of determination, working
remotely, rather than in the tenant’s leased space in the Property. For the purpose of clarification, a tenant shall not be considered
to be “in occupancy” if the tenant’s sole use of its leased space is to store furniture, equipment, or any other personalty
at the tenant’s leased premises.


 






     


     


    

 


Hypothetical Debt
Service: with respect to any particular period, the annualized, equal
monthly payments of principal and interest that would have been payable under a hypothetical loan calculated using (a) an initial loan
balance equal to the sum of the aggregate outstanding Principal balance of the Loan plus any unfunded portion of the Loan that remains
available to Borrower upon Borrower’s compliance with the terms and conditions hereof (such sum, the “Total Loan Commitment”),
(b) a twenty-five (25) year amortization period, and (c) an interest rate equal to 3.6725% per annum.



 


Interest Period:
(a) With respect to any SOFR Loan, the period beginning on (and including) the last day of the previous Interest Period and ending
on (but excluding) the day one (1) month following the previous Interest Period; provided that if any Interest Period would otherwise
end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result
of such extension would be to carry such Interest Period into another calendar month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on
the immediately preceding Business Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Interest Period scheduled to end after the Maturity Date shall
end on the Maturity Date; and (b) with respect to any Benchmark Replacement Rate Loan, the period beginning on (and including) the
last day of the previous Interest Period and ending on (but excluding) the date one (1) month following the previous Interest Period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Interest Period scheduled to end after the Maturity Date shall end on the Maturity Date.”


 






     


     


    

 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the existing definition of Interest Period shall apply until the conclusion of such Interest Period.


 


“Interest
Rate: the SOFR Rate, or, as applicable pursuant to Section 2.12, the Base Rate, or the Benchmark Replacement Rate.”


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the existing definition of Interest Rate shall apply until the conclusion of the Interest Period in effect on the Effective
Date of this Amendment.


 


“Interest
Rate Spread: with respect to any (a) SOFR Loan, 1.60%, (b) Benchmark Replacement Rate Loan, 1.50% and (c) Base Rate Loan,
0.50%; provided that for any Benchmark Replacement Rate Loan, the Interest Rate Spread may be subject to adjustment in accordance
with the requirements for determining the Benchmark Replacement Rate in Section 2.12.2.


 


Type:
means a SOFR Loan, Base Rate Loan or Benchmark Replacement Rate Loan.”


 


(c)        Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to include following additional terms in the appropriate alphabetical order:

Replacement Rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread
adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the Benchmark with the applicable
Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement Rate for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time.

Conforming Changes: with respect to any Benchmark Replacement Rate, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including,
among others, changes to the definition of “Base Rate”, the definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Interest
Period,” the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment,
conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative
or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark
Replacement Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market
practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible
or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement Rate exists, in

(f)        New Section 2.9 is hereby incorporated into Article 2 of the Loan Agreement as follows:


 


“Section 2.9Return
of Payments.


 


2.9.1       If
the Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Loan Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has
been or will be received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower and such related payment is not received by the Administrative
Agent, then the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim,
defense, or deduction of any kind.


 






     


     


    

 


2.9.2       
If the Administrative Agent determines at any time that any amount received by the Administrative Agent under this Loan Agreement
or any other Loan Document must be returned to any loan party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise,
then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will not be required
to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to the Administrative Agent on demand any portion
of such amount that the Administrative Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as the Administrative
Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and the Administrative
Agent will be entitled to set-off against future distributions to such Lender any such amounts (with interest) that are not repaid on
demand.


 


2.9.3       
(i) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (any such Lender
or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”), that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that
any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or
otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient
on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise,
individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion
thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and held in trust for the benefit
of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall
cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative 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 Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater
of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section 2.9.3
shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.


 






     


     


    

 


(ii)             
Without limiting the immediately preceding Section 2.9.3(i), each Payment Recipient hereby further agrees that if it receives
a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution
or otherwise) from the Administrative 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, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with
respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment (a “Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by
a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in
whole or in part) in each case, then (1) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed
to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (2) an error has been made (in the case
of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment.


 


(iii)           
Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such
Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any source, against
any amount due to the Administrative Agent under Section 2.9.3(i) above or under the indemnification provisions of this Loan Agreement.


 


(iv)            
The Borrower and each other loan party hereby agree that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered
from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall
be contractually subrogated (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated) to all the rights of such Lender
under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount, (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise
satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other loan party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and
solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from or on
behalf of the Borrower or any other loan party or from the Property for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment, and (z) to the extent
that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as a payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations
or part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the applicable Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall
be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received; provided, however,
the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of the Borrower
or any other loan party or the Property for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment shall be credited as a payment or satisfaction
of the Obligations and the Obligations or part thereof that were so credited shall not be reinstated.


 






     


     


    

 


(v)              
To the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous
Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim (other than a mandatory counterclaim), defense or right of
set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment
received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.


 


(vi)            
Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 2.9.3 shall survive the resignation or replacement
of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of any Commitment
or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.”


 


(g)        Section 2.11.2 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:


 


“2.11.2
Illegality. If after the date hereof any Lender shall determine that the introduction of any Legal Requirements, or any change
in any Legal Requirements or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other
Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make SOFR Loans, then, on notice thereof
by such Lender to the Borrower through Administrative Agent, the obligation of that Lender to make SOFR Loans shall be suspended until
such Lender shall have notified Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer
exists.


 


(a) Subject to clause
(c) below, if any Lender shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any SOFR Loan, the Borrower shall prepay in full all SOFR Loans
of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on the Monthly Payment Due Date therefor if such Lender
may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such
SOFR Loans, together with any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 2.2.4.


 


(b) If the obligation
of any Lender to make or maintain SOFR Loans has been terminated, the Borrower may elect, by giving notice to such Lender through Administrative
Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made by any such Lender as SOFR Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans.


 


(c) Before giving
any notice to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.11.2, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office
with respect to its SOFR Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the
judgment of the Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.”


 


(h)        Section 2.12 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:


 






     


     


    

 


“2.12Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.


 


2.12.1 Benchmark
Replacement Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark
Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark
Replacement Rate. Any such amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) U.S. Government Securities Business Day after
the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not
received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. No replacement of
the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement Rate pursuant to this Section 2.12.1 will occur prior to the applicable
Benchmark Transition Start Date.


 


2.12.2 Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement Rate, the Administrative Agent will
have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without
any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.


 


2.12.3  Notices;
Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any
occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the
implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Rate, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the
commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative
Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.12.3, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of
the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action will be
conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party
hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.12.3.


 


2.12.4 Benchmark
Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower
may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a SOFR Loan to be made, converted or continued during any
Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a
Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans.”


 


(i) Section 5.33.2 of the
Loan Agreement (Debt Yield) is hereby amended to delete the reference to “8.0%” therein and replace such reference with “7.5%”.


 






     


     


    

 


2.        Additional Agreements. Borrower hereby agrees to prepay a portion of the unpaid Principal in the aggregate amount of $5,500,000.00
(the “Prepaid Principal Amount”). Lender shall permit the Borrower to use all funds in the Cash Collateral Account
and the Operating Expense Account (as each term is defined in the Cash Management Agreement) as of the Effective Date to pay the Prepaid
Principal Amount (and, accordingly, to partially prepay the unpaid Principal, without payment of any prepayment premium or penalty).


 


3.        Waiver of Potential Existing Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents,
the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, in consideration of the Borrower’s payment of the Prepaid Principal
Amount in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Amendment hereby irrevocably waives the Potential Existing Default. Except
as set forth in this Section 3 of this Amendment, nothing contained in this Amendment shall be construed as a waiver by the Administrative
Agent of any covenant or provision of the Loan Agreement (as amended hereby), the Loan Documents, this Amendment, or of any other contract
or instrument between Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the failure of the Administrative Agent at any time or times hereafter
to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision thereof shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Administrative
Agent demand strict compliance therewith. Except as otherwise expressly waived hereby in this Section 3, the Administrative Agent hereby
reserves all rights granted under the Loan Agreement, the Loan Documents, this Amendment and any other contract or instrument between
Borrower and the Administrative Agent.


 


4.        Representations; No Default. Borrower represents and warrants that:


 


(a)        except as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto, the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement, as
amended hereby, and the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on

5.        Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness.


 


The effectiveness of this
Amendment is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, unless specifically waived in writing by the Administrative
Agent (the first date upon which all such conditions have been satisfied being herein called the (“Effective Date”)):


 


(a)      Administrative Agent shall have received this Amendment duly executed by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its legal counsel;


 


(b)      Administrative Agent shall have received all other documents the Administrative Agent may reasonably request with respect to any
matter relevant to this Amendment or the transactions contemplated hereby, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
and its legal counsel;


 


(c)     Borrower shall have reimbursed the Administrative Agent for all fees, costs, expenses and taxes incurred by the Administrative
Agent in connection with this Amendment;


 


(d)      Administrative Agent shall have received the Prepaid Principal Amount;


 


(e)    The representations and warranties contained herein shall be true and correct as of the date hereof and the representations and
warranties contained in the Loan Agreement or in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication
of any materiality qualifier contained therein) on and as of the date hereof as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent
that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date or as otherwise disclosed to Lender on Schedule I attached
hereto; and


 


(f)     No Event of Default other than the Potential Existing Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no Event of Default will
result from the execution, delivery or performance of this Amendment.


 


6.        Confirmation and Ratification of Loan Agreement and Loan Documents. Except as expressly modified herein, the Loan Agreement
and all other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect. The Loan Agreement as amended herein and all other Loan Documents
are hereby ratified and confirmed by the parties hereto.


 


7.       No Novation. Nothing in this Amendment shall constitute the satisfaction or extinguishment of any amounts owed under the
Note, nor shall it be a novation of any amounts owed under the Note.


 


8.        Counterparts. This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of
which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Amendment may be delivered by facsimile transmission, by
electronic mail, or by other electronic transmission, in portable document format (.pdf), or other electronic or facsimile format, and
each such executed facsimile, .pdf, or other electronic record shall be considered an original executed counterpart for purposes of this
Amendment. Each Party to this Amendment (a) agrees that it will be bound by its own Electronic Signature (as such term is defined immediately
below), (b) accepts the Electronic Signature of each other Party to this Amendment, and (c) agrees that such Electronic Signatures shall
be the legal equivalent of manual signatures. The term “Electronic Signature” means (i) the signing party’s manual signature
on a signature page, converted by the signing party (or its agent) to facsimile or digital form (such as a .pdf file) and received from
the customary email address or customary facsimile number of the signing party (or its counsel or representative), or other mutually agreed-upon
authenticated source; or (ii) the signing party’s digital signature executed using a mutually agreed-upon digital signature service
provider and digital signature process. The words “execution,” “executed”, “signed,” “signature,”
and words of like import in this paragraph shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be deemed to include Electronic Signatures and the use and
keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as manually executed
signatures and the use of paper records and paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in
any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state laws based on the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, the Illinois Electronic Commerce Security Act, or any other
similar state law.


 






     


     


    

 


9.        Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective
successors and assigns permitted pursuant to the Loan Agreement.


 


10.        Invalidity. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Amendment shall for any reason be held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
of this Amendment.


 


11.        Governing Law. THE VALIDITY OF THIS AMENDMENT, THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS
OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.


 


12.       Further Assurances. Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent from time to time, upon demand, such
supplemental agreements, documents, statements, assignments, transfers, or such other instruments as the Administrative Agent or Lenders
may request, in order that the full intent of the Loan Agreement and this Amendment may be carried into effect.


 


13.        Release. BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS NO DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM, OFFSET, CROSS COMPLAINT, CLAIM OR DEMAND
OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER THAT CAN BE ASSERTED TO REDUCE OR ELIMINATE ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS LIABILITY TO REPAY THE “OBLIGATIONS”
OR TO SEEK AFFIRMATIVE RELIEF OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LENDERS. BORROWER HEREBY VOLUNTARILY AND
KNOWINGLY RELEASES AND FOREVER DISCHARGES THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS, THEIR PREDECESSORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, SUCCESSORS AND
ASSIGNS, FROM ALL POSSIBLE CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, CAUSES OF ACTION, DAMAGES, COSTS, EXPENSES, AND LIABILITIES WHATSOEVER, KNOWN OR
UNKNOWN, ANTICIPATED OR UNANTICIPATED, SUSPECTED OR UNSUSPECTED, FIXED, CONTINGENT, OR CONDITIONAL, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, ORIGINATING IN
WHOLE OR IN PART ON OR BEFORE THE DATE THIS AMENDMENT IS EXECUTED, WHICH BORROWER MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT OR LENDERS, THEIR PREDECESSORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, IF ANY, AND IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER ANY SUCH CLAIMS ARISE
OUT OF CONTRACT, TORT, VIOLATION OF LAW OR REGULATIONS, OR OTHERWISE, AND ARISING FROM ANY “LOANS”, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
ANY CONTRACTING FOR, CHARGING, TAKING, RESERVING, COLLECTING OR RECEIVING INTEREST IN EXCESS OF THE HIGHEST LAWFUL RATE APPLICABLE, THE
EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UNDER THE LOAN AGREEMENT OR OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND NEGOTIATION FOR AND EXECUTION OF THIS AMENDMENT.
