  Principal Amount of Note:  $10,000,000.00

   

  For value received, Enjoy Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), promises to pay to the undersigned holder or such party’s assigns (the “Holder”) the principal amount set forth above with interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to 10% per annum.

  This secured promissory note (this “Note”) is referred to in and is executed and delivered in connection with that certain Security Agreement dated as of May 11, 2022 and executed by the Borrower in favor of the Secured Parties set forth therein (as the same may from time to time be amended, modified or supplemented or restated, the “Security Agreement”). Additional rights and obligations of the Holder are set forth in the Security

  Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Security

  Agreement.

   

  1. BASIC TERMS.

   

  (a) Payments. All payments of interest and principal on this Note shall be in lawful money of the United States of America and shall be made to the Holder or, if applicable, to the Holder’s permitted assigns. All payments shall be applied first to accrued interest, and thereafter to principal.

   

  (b) Prepayment. The Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without the consent of the Holder, together with all accrued but unpaid interest and the other amounts due hereunder in respect of the amount prepaid, without premium or penalty.

   

  

  2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

   

  (a) Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Holder as of the date this

  Note was issued as follows:

   

  (i) Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Borrower has the requisite corporate power to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Borrower is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the Borrower or its business (a “Material Adverse Effect”).

   

  (ii) Corporate Power. The Borrower has all requisite corporate power to issue this Note and to carry out and perform its obligations under this Note. The Borrower’s board of directors has approved the issuance of this Note based upon a reasonable belief that the issuance of this Note

  is appropriate for the Borrower after reasonable inquiry concerning the Borrower’s financing objectives and financial situation.

   

  (iii) Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Borrower necessary for the issuance and delivery of this Note has been taken. This Note constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, the relief of debtors and, with respect to rights to indemnity, subject to federal and state securities laws.

   

  (iv) Governmental Consents. All consents, approvals, orders or authorizations of, or registrations, qualifications, designations, declarations or filings with, any governmental authority required on the part of the Borrower in connection with issuance of this Note has been obtained.

   

  (v) Compliance  with Laws. To its knowledge, the Borrower is not in violation of any applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties, which violation of which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

   

  (vi) Compliance  with Other  Instruments. The Borrower is not in violation or default of any term of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or of any provision of any mortgage, indenture or contract to which it is a party and by which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order or writ, other than such violation(s) that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance of this Note will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with, or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, decree, order or writ or an event that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the

  Borrower or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the

  Borrower, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.

   

  (vii) No “Bad Actor”  Disqualification. The Borrower has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Borrower Covered Person (as defined below) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii), as modified by Rules 506(d) (2) and (d)(3), under the Act (“Disqualification  Events”). To the Borrower’s knowledge, no Borrower Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Borrower has complied, to the extent required, with any disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) under the Act. For purposes of this Note, “Borrower Covered Persons” are those persons specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Act; provided, however, that Borrower Covered Persons do not include (a) the Holder, or (b) any person or entity that is deemed to be an affiliated issuer of the Borrower solely as a result of the relationship between the Borrower and the Holder.

   

  2.

   

  

  (viii) Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Holder contained in subsection (b) below, the offer, issue and sale of this Note are and will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act, and have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws.

   

  (ix) Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of this Note solely for the operations of its business, and not for any personal, family or household purpose.

   

   

  

   

  follows:

  

  

  (b) Representations and Warranties of the Holder. The Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Borrower as of the date hereof as

   

  

   

  (i) Purchase for Own Account. The Holder is acquiring this Note solely for the Holder’s own account and beneficial interest for investment and not for sale or with a view to distribution of this Note or any part thereof, has no present intention of selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same, and does not presently have reason to anticipate a change in such intention.

   

  (ii) Information and Sophistication. Without lessening or obviating the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in subsection (a) above, the Holder hereby: (A) acknowledges that the Holder has received all the information the Holder has requested from the Borrower and the Holder considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire this Note, (B) represents that the Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Borrower regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Note and to obtain any additional

  information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information given the Holder and (C) further represents that the Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risk of this investment.

   

  (iii) Ability to Bear Economic Risk. The Holder acknowledges that investment in this Note involves a high degree of risk, and represents that the Holder is able, without materially impairing the Holder’s financial condition, to hold this Note for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of the Holder’s investment.

   

  (iv) Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of this Note unless and until:

   

  (1) 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

   

  (2) the Holder shall have notified the Borrower of the proposed disposition and furnished the Borrower with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Holder shall have furnished the Borrower with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, that such disposition will not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws; provided that no such opinion shall be required for dispositions in compliance with Rule 144 under the Act, except in unusual circumstances.

   

  3.

   

  

  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (1) and (2) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by the Holder to any other entity who, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Holder, if all transferees agree in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if they were the Holder hereunder.

   

  (v) Accredited Investor  Status. The Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Act.

   

  (vi) No “Bad Actor”  Disqualification. The Holder represents and warrants that neither (A) the Holder nor (B) any entity that controls the Holder or is under the control of, or under common control with, the Holder, is subject to any Disqualification Event, except for Disqualification Events covered by Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) under the Act and disclosed in writing in reasonable detail to the Borrower. The Holder represents that the Holder has exercised reasonable care to determine the accuracy of the representation made by the Holder in this paragraph, and agrees to notify the Borrower if the Holder becomes aware of any fact that makes the representation given by the Holder hereunder inaccurate.

   

  (vii) Foreign  Investors.  If the Holder is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), the Holder hereby represents that he, she or it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of the Holder’s jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for this Note or any use of this Note, including (A) the legal requirements within the Holder’s jurisdiction for the purchase of this Note, (B) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (C) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (D) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of this Note. The Holder’s subscription, payment for and continued beneficial ownership of this Note will not violate any applicable securities

  or other laws of the Holder’s jurisdiction.

   

  (VIII) Forward-Looking Statements. With respect to any forecasts, projections of results and other forward-looking statements and information provided to the Holder, the Holder acknowledges that such statements were prepared based upon assumptions deemed reasonable by the Borrower at the time of preparation. There is no assurance that such statements will prove accurate, and the Borrower has no obligation to update such statements.

  If there shall be any Event of Default (as defined below) hereunder, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, at the option and upon the declaration of the Holder and upon written notice to the Borrower (which election and notice shall not be required in the case of an Event of Default under subsection (ii) or (iii) below), this Note shall accelerate and all principal and unpaid accrued interest shall become due and payable.

  4.

   

  

  (iii) an involuntary petition is filed against the Borrower (unless such petition is dismissed or discharged within 60 days under any bankruptcy statute now or hereafter in effect, or a custodian, receiver, trustee or assignee for the benefit of creditors (or other similar official) is appointed to take possession, custody or control of any property of the Borrower);

   

  (iv) an “Event of Default” (as defined in the Security Agreement);
