SMART FOR LIFE, INC.


 


5% SECURED SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE
PROMISSORY NOTE


 


	$107,500	July 29, 2022



 


 


For value received, Smart
for Life, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), promises to pay to RTB CHILDRENS TRUST (“Holder”) the principal sum of One Hundred Seven
Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($107,500) (the “Principal”) together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, each
due and payable on the date and in the manner set forth below.


 


This secured subordinated
convertible promissory note (the “Note”) is issued pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement,
dated as of March 14, 2022, as amended by the First Amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated July 29, 2022 (as so amended,
the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, Ceautamed Worldwide, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the “Acquired
Company”), the Holder and the other Sellers party thereto. This Note is one of the Buyer Notes issued to the Sellers under the
Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.


 


The following is a statement
of the rights of the Holder of this Note and the terms and conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the Holder, by acceptance
of this Note, agrees:


 


1.
Principal Repayment. The Principal along with any accrued, but unpaid interest shall be paid in one lump sum on the
third anniversary date of this Note (the “Maturity Date”) subject to the terms of Section 3 below and subject to earlier
acceleration of this Note (including pursuant to Sections 4 or 5 hereof). The Company shall not have the right to repay the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note prior to the Maturity Date without the consent of the Holder. All payments of Principal and interest shall be in
lawful money of the United States of America, except in connection with a conversion of this Note in accordance with Section 3 below.
All cash payments in respect of the Buyer Notes I in accordance with the terms of the Buyer Notes I shall be made pro rata among the holders
of the Buyer Notes I based on the amounts due and owing under each of the Buyer Notes I.


 






     


    


    

 


2.
Interest.


 


(a)
Interest (the “Interest”) shall accrue on the unpaid Principal from the date hereof until such Principal is
repaid in full at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”). The Principal along with any accrued,
but unpaid Interest shall be paid in one lump sum on the Maturity Date, subject to the terms of Section 3 below.


 


(b)
Notwithstanding Section 2.2(a) above, during the continuance of any Event of Default (as defined herein), Interest shall
accrue on the unpaid Principal at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate plus five percent (5%).


 


(c)
In the event that any Interest rate provided for herein shall be determined to be unlawful, such Interest rate shall be computed
at the highest rate permitted by applicable Law. Any payment by the Company of any Interest amount in excess of that permitted by applicable
Law shall be considered a mistake, with the excess being applied to the Principal of this Note without prepayment premium or penalty.


 


3. Conversion.


 


The Holder may, at any time
while this Note is outstanding, elect to convert all or a portion of the outstanding Principal plus accrued and unpaid Interest thereon
on the Principal converted into common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at a conversion
price of $6.25 (the “Conversion Price”); provided further than the Holder may not elect to convert a portion of the
outstanding Principal in an amount less than the lesser of (y) Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) or (z) the remaining outstanding
Principal of this Note. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion shall be determined by dividing the outstanding
Principal converted plus accrued and unpaid Interest on the converted Principal by the Conversion Price. Any request by Holder to convert
all or a portion of this Note must be accompanied by a written notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. On the date of
conversion of this Note, the outstanding Principal converted and accrued but unpaid Interest on such converted Principal through the date
of conversion shall be converted without any further action by the Holder and whether or not the Note is surrendered to the Company and,
in the case of a partial conversion of this Note, a new Note shall be issued to the Holder for the remaining balance of the Principal.
If, after aggregation, the conversion of this Note would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance
of any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying
the Conversion Price by such fraction.


 


4.
Events of Default. In the event that any of the following (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:


 


(a)
Non-Payment. The Company shall default in the payment of the Principal of, or accrued Interest on, this Note or any
of the other Buyer Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether by acceleration or otherwise; or


 






    2


    


    

 


(b)
Default in Covenants. The Company or the Acquired Company, WWG or GFF (each of the Acquired Company, WWG and GFF,
a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) shall default in any material manner in the observance
or performance of any covenants or agreements set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Guaranty being executed by each Guarantor (each,
a “Guaranty”) in favor of the Sellers and the Collateral Agent (as defined herein), this Note or any of the other Buyer
Notes; or


 


(c)
Breach of Representations and Warranties. The Company materially breaches any representation or warranty contained
in the Purchase Agreement; or


 


(d)
Illegality of Note. Any court of competent jurisdiction issues an order declaring this Note or any of the other Buyer
Notes or any provision hereunder or thereunder to be illegal; or


 


(e)
Cross Default. There occurs with respect to any Senior Indebtedness (as defined herein): (i) a default with
respect to any payment obligation thereunder that then entitles the holder thereof to declare such indebtedness to be due and payable
prior to its stated maturity, or (ii) any other default thereunder that entitles, and has caused, the holder thereof to declare such indebtedness
to be due and payable prior to its stated maturity.


 


(f)  
Bankruptcy. The Company or any Guarantor shall: (i) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become
due; (ii) apply for, consent to, or acquiesce in, the appointment of a trustee, receiver, sequestrator or other custodian for the Company,
a Guarantor or any property of the Company or a Guarantor, or make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iii) in the absence
of such application, consent or acquiesce in, permit or suffer to exist the appointment of a trustee, receiver, sequestrator or other
custodian for the Company, a Guarantor or any property of the Company or a Guarantor; or (iv) permit or suffer to exist the commencement
of any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement or other case or proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any dissolution,
winding up or liquidation proceeding, in respect of the Company or any Guarantor, and, if such case or proceeding is not commenced by
the Company or any Guarantor or converted to a voluntary case, such case or proceeding shall be consented to or acquiesced in by the Company
or any Guarantor or shall result in the entry of an order for relief or shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days following its filing;


 


then, and so long as such Event
of Default is continuing for a period of two (2) business days in the case of non-payment under Section 4(a) or for a period of thirty
(30) calendar days in the case of events under Sections 4(b) through 4(c) or for a period of five (5) calendar days in the case of an
event under Sections 4(d) through Section 4(e) (and the event which would constitute such Event of Default, if curable, has not been cured),
by written notice to the Company from the Holder, all obligations of the Company under this Note shall be immediately due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest or any other action nor obligation of the Holder of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived,
and Holder may exercise any other remedies the Holder may have by contract, at law or in equity. If an Event of Default specified in Section
4(f) above occurs, the Principal of, and accrued Interest on, the Note shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action
on the part of any Holder, become immediately due and payable and Holder may exercise any other remedies the Holder may have by contract,
at law or in equity. If the Purchase Agreement is assigned by the Company pursuant to the terms thereof, for purposes of this Section
4, “Company” shall be deemed to include such assignee.


 


5.
Change of Control. In the event of the occurrence of a Change of Control with respect to the Company or any Guarantor (each
of the Company and each Guarantor, a “Specified Entity”), all obligations of the Company under this Note shall become
immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or any other action nor obligation of the Holder of any kind, all of
which are hereby expressly waived, and Holder may exercise any other remedies the Holder may have by contract, at law or in equity. The
Company shall notify the Holder, in writing, at least three (3) days prior to a Change of Control. The term “Change of Control”
means the occurrence of any of the following in one or a series of related transactions: (i) an acquisition after the date hereof
by an individual or legal entity or “group” (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of
the voting rights or equity interests in a Specified Entity; (ii) a replacement of more than 50% of the members of the board of directors
of the Company; (iii) a merger or consolidation of a Specified Entity or a sale of 50% or more of the assets of a Specified Entity
in one or a series of related transactions; (iv) a recapitalization, reorganization or other transaction involving a Specified Entity
that constitutes or could result in a transfer of more than 50% of the voting rights or equity interests in such Specified Entity; or
(v) the execution by a Specified Entity or its owners of an agreement providing for or that will result in any of the foregoing events.


 






    3


    


    

 


6.
Piggyback Registration. The Company shall give the Holder at least 5 days’ prior written notice of each filing by
the Company of a registration statement (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or on any successor forms thereto)
with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to which the Company is registering shares of its Common
Stock for sale by itself or others for cash proceeds. If requested by the Holder in writing within 20 days after receipt of any such notice,
the Company shall, at the Company’s sole expense (other than the underwriting discounts, if any, payable in respect of the Shares
sold by the Holder), register all or, at the Holder’s option, any portion of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
by the Holder of the amount of outstanding Principal plus accrued and unpaid Interest thereon on the Principal (the “Shares”),
concurrently with the registration of such other securities, all to the extent requisite to permit the public offering and sale of the
Shares through the securities exchange, if any, on which the Common Stock is being sold or on the over-the-counter market, and will use
its commercially reasonable efforts through its officers, directors, auditors, and counsel to cause such registration statement to become
effective as promptly as practicable. If the managing underwriter of any such offering shall determine and advise the Company that, in
its opinion, the distribution of all or a portion of the Shares requested to be included in the registration concurrently with the securities
being registered by the Company would adversely affect the distribution of such securities by the Company, then the Company will include
in such registration first, the securities that the Company proposes to sell itself and second, the Shares requested to be included in
such registration by the Holder and the shares requested to be included in such registration by the holders of the other Buyer Notes,
to the extent permitted by the managing underwriter (and to the extent the managing underwriter determines to “cutback” any
shares, such “cutback” shall apply pro rata to all Persons (other than the Company) seeking to have their shares registered).
In the event of a registration pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to
cause the Shares so registered to be registered or qualified for sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the
Holder may reasonably request, if such registration or qualification is required; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to qualify to do business in any state by reason of this Section 6 in which it is not otherwise required to qualify to do business. In
the event of a registration pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall furnish to the Holder such reasonable number
of copies of the registration statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case, including all exhibits), of each prospectus
contained in such registration statement and each supplement or amendment thereto (including each preliminary prospectus), all of which
shall conform to the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, and such other documents, as the Holder
may reasonably request to facilitate the disposition of the Shares included in such registration. The Company shall notify the Holder,
in writing, promptly when such registration statement has become effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration
statement has been filed. The Company shall advise the Holder promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance
of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement, or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for that purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal
if such stop order should be issued. The Company shall promptly notify the Holder, in writing, at any time when a prospectus relating
thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included
in such registration statement, as then in effect, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing,
and at the reasonable request of the Holder prepare and furnish to it such number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such
prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Shares or securities, such prospectus shall
not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made. The Holder shall suspend all sales
of the Shares upon receipt of such notice from the Company and shall not re-commence sales until it receives copies of any necessary amendment
or supplement to such prospectus, which shall be delivered to the Holder within 30 days of the date of such notice from the Company. If
requested by the underwriter for any underwritten offering of Shares, the Company and the Holder will enter into an underwriting agreement
with such underwriter for such offering, which shall be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Company, the Company’s
counsel and the Holder’s counsel, and the underwriter, and such agreement shall contain such representations and warranties by the
Company and the Holder and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in an underwriting agreement with respect to secondary
distributions solely by selling stockholders. If the Holder does not enter into such underwriting agreement, the Company shall have no
obligation to include the Holder’s Shares in the registration statement relating to such offering. The Company agrees that until
all the Shares have been sold under a registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or other available
exemption from Securities Act registration requirements, it shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to keep current in filing all
reports, statements and other materials required to be filed with the Commission to permit the Holder to sell the Shares under Rule 144.

7.
Covenants. Each of the Company and each Guarantor hereby agrees that, so long as the Note remains outstanding and unpaid,
or any other amount is owing to the Holder hereunder:


 


(a)
Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will, without providing at least 30 days' prior written notice to the Holder, change its
legal name, identity, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, corporate structure, location of its chief executive office
or its principal place of business or its organizational identification number. Each of the Company and each Guarantor will, prior to
any change described in the preceding sentence, take all actions requested by the Holder to maintain the perfection and priority of the
Holder's security interest in the Collateral (as defined herein).


 


(b)
Each of the Company and the Guarantors shall, at their own cost and expense, defend title to the Collateral and the lien and security
interest of the Collateral Agent therein against the claim of any person claiming against or through the Company or any Guarantor and
shall maintain and preserve such perfected security interest for so long as this Note shall remain in effect.


 


(c)
Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will sell, offer to sell, dispose of, convey, assign or otherwise transfer, grant any option
with respect to, restrict, or grant, create, permit or suffer to exist any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, option, right of
first offer, encumbrance or other restriction or limitation of any nature whatsoever on, any of the Collateral or any interest therein
except with the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.


 


(d)
Each of the Company and the Guarantors will keep the Collateral in good order and repair and will not use the same in violation
of law or any policy of insurance thereon. Each of the Company and the Guarantors will permit the Holder, or its designee, to inspect
the Collateral at any reasonable time, wherever located.


 


(e)
Each of the Company and the Guarantors will pay promptly when due all taxes, assessments, governmental charges, and levies upon
the Collateral or incurred in connection with the use or operation of the Collateral or incurred in connection with this Agreement.


 


(f)  
Neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall enter into any agreement after the date hereof that would restrict payment of the amounts
due and owing under the Buyer Notes without the express written consent of the Sellers.


 


8.
Subordination.


 


(a)
All claims of the Holder to Principal, Interest and any other amounts at any time owed under this Note (collectively, “Junior
Indebtedness”) is hereby expressly subordinated in right of payment, as herein set forth, to the prior payment in full of all
Senior Indebtedness. No payment under Junior Indebtedness shall be made by the Company, nor shall the Holder exercise any remedies under
the Junior Indebtedness (including taking any legal action (whether judicial or otherwise) to collect the Junior Indebtedness), if, at
the time of such payment, exercise or immediately after giving effect thereto, (i) there shall exist any material “Default”
or “Event of Default” under any agreements governing any of the Senior Indebtedness, upon which the Company shall notify the
Holder in writing of such Default within three (3) days of its receipt of notice of the Default from the Senior Lender or (ii) the maturity
of any of the Senior Indebtedness has been accelerated and (A) such acceleration has not been waived or (B) such Senior Indebtedness has
not been paid in full; provided, however, that (x) in the event that the holder of any Senior Indebtedness accelerates such Senior Indebtedness,
then the Holder may accelerate the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, and (y) if the Company is permitted under the terms of the Senior
Indebtedness to pay an amount due and owing under this Note and fails to make such payment, then so long as the terms of the Senior Indebtedness
do not prohibit such action, the Holder may exercise its rights to be paid such amount, but only such amount (and Holder shall not be
permitted to accelerate hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained in this Note to the contrary, the Holder shall
be permitted to convert this Note in accordance with Section 3 and to receive shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof.


 






    5


    


    

 


(b)
Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to
creditors upon any dissolution or winding up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary
or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be paid in full, or
payment thereof provided for in money, before any payment is made under Junior Indebtedness; and upon any such dissolution or winding
up or liquidation or reorganization, any distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities, to which the Holder as holder of the Junior Indebtedness would be entitled except for the provisions hereof, shall be paid
by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution,
or by the Holder if received by Holder, directly to the holder of the Senior Indebtedness, or its representatives, to the extent necessary
to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full, in money, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment or distribution to or for the
benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holder with respect to the Junior
Indebtedness.


 


(c)
If the holders of the Senior Indebtedness in good faith believe Holder may fail to timely file a proof of claim in any such insolvency
proceeding, the holder(s) of the Senior Indebtedness may do so for Holder.


 


(d)
In the event that any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
prohibited by the foregoing where the holder has actual knowledge of a Senior Indebtedness payment default (for purposes of this Note,
a Holder shall only be deemed to have actual knowledge of a Senior Indebtedness payment default if it is so notified, in writing, by the
Company or the senior lender) shall be received by the Holder before all the Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, or provisions made for
such payment, in accordance with its terms, such payment or distribution shall be held for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered
to, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, as their respective interests may appear, for application
to the payment of all the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full, in
money, in accordance with its terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness.


 


(e)
The provisions hereof are solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness on the
one hand and the Holder as holder of the Junior Indebtedness on the other hand, and nothing herein shall impair, as between the Company
and the Holder, the obligations of the Company under the Junior Indebtedness, which are unconditional and absolute. With this in mind,
notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 8, if and so long as all documents governing the Senior Indebtedness permit one of
the actions restricted by this Section 8, the restriction shall be waived and the restricted action permitted hereunder.


 


(f)  
No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination as herein provided shall at any
time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or any act or failure to act, in good
faith, by any such holder of the Senior Indebtedness, or any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants hereof,
regardless of any knowledge thereof any holder of the Senior Indebtedness may have or be otherwise charged with. Without in any way limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of
or notice to the Holder, without incurring responsibility to the Holder and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided
in this Note or the obligations hereunder of the Holder to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following:
(i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or create, renew or alter, the Senior Indebtedness,
or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner the Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which
the Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise
securing the Senior Indebtedness (other than the Collateral); (iii) release any person liable or contingently liable in any manner for
the payment or collection of the Senior Indebtedness; and/or (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company or
any other person.


 






    6


    


    

 


(g)
Each holder of any Senior Indebtedness, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of
this Note, shall be entitled to rely on the subordination provisions set forth in this Note.


 


(h)
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, the Holder shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts which
would prohibit the making of any payments on the Junior Indebtedness unless and until the holder(s) of the Senior Indebtedness or their
representatives send written notice to Holder of same.


 


(i)   
Subject to the payment in full of all the Senior Indebtedness, the Holder as holder of the Junior Indebtedness shall be subrogated
to the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the
Senior Indebtedness.


 


(j)   
The Holder shall confirm (in writing) the above subordination provisions if requested by any holder of the Senior Indebtedness,
and shall execute and deliver such additional subordination agreements, consistent with the foregoing as any holder of Senior Indebtedness
may require.


 


(k)
For purposes hereof, “Senior Indebtedness” means, with respect to the Company, all senior secured indebtedness
of the Company, whether outstanding on the date of the execution of this Note or thereafter created, to banks, insurance companies, other
financial institutions, private equity funds, hedge funds or other similar funds, and that certain Original Issue Discount Subordinated
Note issued by the Company to Joseph X Xiras dated the date of this Note; provided, that, any seller notes or other seller financing in
connection with any acquisitions by the Company shall not constitute Senior Indebtedness.


 


(l)  For
the avoidance of doubt, the conversion of this Note into Common Stock in accordance with Section 3 is expressly permitted by this Section
8 and no holder of Senior Indebtedness shall have any right, title or interest in or to the Common Stock received by the Holder upon conversion
of this Note.


 


9.

the Company hereunder to the Holder and its assigns and to the holders of the other Buyer Notes and the obligations of the Guarantors

of the Company to the Holder and the other Buyer Note Holders of every kind and description, direct and indirect, absolute and contingent,
due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, that relate to this Note and the other Buyer Notes and the rights and remedies

interest granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Buyer Notes shall be prior to all other interests in the Collateral.

re-record or refile any and all such instruments and documents for and in the name of the Company and the Guarantors; the Company and
each Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Company and the Guarantors to
do so; and the Company and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Collateral Agent, on demand, for all costs and expenses incurred by the
Collateral Agent in connection therewith, such amount being added to the indebtedness arising under the Buyer Notes.


 


(c) the
security interest created hereunder shall terminate upon the irrevocable payment in full by the Company to the Holder and the other Buyer
Note Holders of all indebtedness, obligations and liabilities arising from, or in any way related to, this Note and the other Buyer Notes.


 


(d) Events

rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees and may consult with legal counsel, independent public
accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in

(c)
The Holder hereby agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents,
and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are incidental
thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Buyer Note Holders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all
of the Buyer Note Holders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Buyer Note Holder, from time to time, to

exists or is owned by the Company or any Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent
herein or pursuant to the other Loan Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced
or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care,
disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 19 or in
any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto,
the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in any Collateral as
one of the Buyer Note Holders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Buyer Note Holder, except
for its gross negligence, or willful misconduct. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, partners, managers,
agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation
made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements
specified in any Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in any Loan Document; (iv) the validity, effectiveness,
sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith; (v) the existence
or non-existence of any Event of Default; or (vi) the financial condition of the Company or any Guarantor. The Holder acknowledges that
it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Buyer Note Holder, and based on such documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The Holder
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Buyer Note Holder, and based
on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not
taking any action under the Loan Documents to which it is a party.


 


(e)
The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default, unless the Collateral
Agent shall have received written notice from a Buyer Note Holder, the Company or any Guarantor referring to the Loan Documents, describing
such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Collateral Agent may at any time request
instructions from the Buyer Note Holders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of the Loan Documents the Collateral
Agent is permitted or desires to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Collateral Agent shall be absolutely
entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for
refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions
from the Buyer Note Holders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Buyer Note Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever against the
Collateral Agent solely as a result of the Collateral Agent acting or refraining from acting under any of the Loan Documents, except with
respect to its gross negligence, or willful misconduct.


 


(f)  
The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Buyer Note Holders and the Company. Upon receipt of
any such notice of resignation, the Buyer Note Holders shall have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no such successor
shall have been so appointed by the Buyer Note Holders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring
Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then (a) the resignation of the Collateral Agent shall become effective on such 30th
day, (b) the Buyer Note Holders shall perform the duties of the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents until the Buyer Note Holders
appoint a successor Collateral Agent, (c) the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents and (d) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral
Agent shall instead be made by or to each Buyer Note Holder directly, until such time as the Buyer Note Holders appoint a successor Collateral
Agent as provided for in this Section 19. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Collateral Agent hereunder, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral
Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents
(if not already discharged therefrom as provided herein).
