*Perceptive Credit Facility* 

On March 2, 2026 (the "Closing Date"), Pulmonx Corporation (the "Company") entered into a Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the "Credit Agreement") and a Security Agreement (the "Security Agreement"), with Perceptive Credit Holdings V, LP ("Perceptive"), as the initial lender, administrative agent and collateral agent. The Perceptive Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $60.0 million (the "Loan Facility").

On the Closing Date, the Company borrowed an initial loan under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million. The Loan Facility permits the Company to borrow up to an additional $20 million, in two additional equal tranches. The first $10.0 million tranche becomes available if the Company reaches at least $92.5 million in revenue for any trailing twelve-month period ending as of the end of last day of any fiscal quarter through, and including, the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2027, and the second $10.0 million tranche becomes available if the Company reaches at least $100.0 million in revenue for any trailing twelve-month period ending as of the end of last day of any fiscal quarter through, and including, the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2027.

The Loan Facility has a maturity date of March 2, 2031 (the "Maturity Date"). The Loan Facility accrues interest, payable monthly in arrears, at an annual rate equal to the sum of (a) an applicable margin of 7.00% (the "Applicable Margin") plus (b) the greater of (i) one-month term SOFR and (ii) 3.75%. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the Credit Agreement, the Applicable Margin will increase by an additional 3.00% per annum at Perceptive's election (retroactive to the date of such event of default), or automatically in the case of a payment or bankruptcy event of default.

For a period of 36 months following the Closing Date, at the Company's option with respect to each interest payment date, up to 2.00% per annum of the Applicable Margin will be paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan Facility on such interest payment date.

Prior to the Maturity Date, there will be no scheduled principal payments under the Loan Facility. On the Maturity Date, the Company is required to pay Perceptive the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the loans thereunder and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The loans under the Loan Facility may be prepaid at any time, subject to a prepayment premium ranging from 2% to 10% if such prepayment occurs on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date.

On the Closing Date, the Company paid an upfront fee of $750,000, which is equal to 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loan Facility. On each date when any outstanding principal under the Loan Facility is repaid or required to be repaid (including but not limited to, on the Maturity Date, or upon prepayment either by means of voluntary prepayment, mandatory prepayment, or acceleration in connection with an event of default), the Company will be required to pay an exit fee equal to 1.50% of such principal amount.

The Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Pulmonx International Sàrl, the Company's wholly-owned Swiss subsidiary, and will be guaranteed by all subsidiaries of the Company organized in the United States or Switzerland, and any other material subsidiaries. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority perfected security interest on substantially all of the existing and after-acquired assets of the Company and subsidiary guarantors, subject to customary exceptions.

The Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, and events of default that are customarily required for similar financings. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring the Company to (i) at all times prior to the Maturity Date, maintain minimum Liquidity (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least $4.0 million and (ii) as of each calculation date set forth in the Credit Agreement, maintain Revenue (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that is not less than the amounts specified in the Credit Agreement. The occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement could result in, among other things, the declaration that all outstanding principal and interest thereunder are immediately due and payable in whole or in part.

*Perceptive Warrants* 

On the Closing Date, the Company issued to Perceptive a warrant to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share, with an exercise price of $1.92 per share, which is a 25% premium to the 10-day volume weighted average price of the common stock for the period ending on the business day immediately preceding the Closing Date.

------

On the date of the funding of each delayed draw term loan under the Credit Agreement, the Company will issue to Perceptive additional warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 0.025 times the dollar amount of delayed draw term loans funded on such date (which number of shares will be adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations and the like that take place after the Closing Date and prior to the applicable funding date), with an exercise price equal to a 25% premium to the 10-day volume weighted average price of the common stock for the period ending on the business day immediately preceding such date.

All the warrants, regardless of issuance date, will have an expiration date of March 2, 2033, may be exercised on a cashless or "net" basis, are freely transferable, and will be automatically exercised, on a cashless basis, prior to their expiration if the value of the shares underlying the respective warrant is greater than the then-applicable exercise price. The warrant exercise prices are subject to adjustment for certain recapitalization events, as further described in the warrants.

The warrants were, and the additional warrants will be, issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act. The warrants and the shares of common stock issuable thereunder may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act.

The foregoing summary of the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement, and the warrants is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each of the above-referenced documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

#### Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
*CIBC Credit Agreement* 

In connection with the Company's entry into the Loan Facility, on March 2, 2026, the Company repaid all outstanding indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated March 29, 2021, as amended, among the Company and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, as lender, and terminated all its obligations and commitments thereunder. No early termination fees or penalties were incurred by the Company in connection with such termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders that hold Third Tranche Delayed Draw Commitments agree to make the Third Tranche Delayed Draw Loans to the Borrower up to the full amount of such Third Tranche Delayed Draw Commitments (available in either a single Borrowing or in no more than two (2) drawings (each of which shall be in minimum increments of no less than $5,000,000 or the total amount of Second Tranche Delayed Draw Commitments remaining)) on each Third Tranche Delayed Draw Date. Each Third Tranche Delayed Draw Date shall occur after the Closing Date and on or prior to the Third Tranche Delayed Draw Commitment Termination Date. The Third Tranche Delayed Draw Commitments of each Lender having a Third Tranche Delayed Draw Commitment will be automatically and permanently terminated upon the Third Tranche Delayed Draw Commitment Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) No amounts repaid or prepaid with respect to any Loan may be reborrowed.

**2.02 Borrowing Procedures**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At least three (3) (but not more than five (5)) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date (or, in the case of the initial Borrowing Date, one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date)), the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Borrowing Notice (which notice, if received by the Administrative Agent on a day that is not a Business Day or after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next Business Day).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon receipt of a Borrowing Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. No later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the anticipated Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Loan to be made by such Lender.

**2.03 Notes**. If requested by any Lender, the Loans of such Lender shall be evidenced by one or more Notes. The Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such promissory note(s) payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and substantially in the form attached hereto as **Exhibit C**. Thereafter, the Loans and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to **Section 14.05**) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). Any such notes shall include the following:

FOR PURPOSES OF SECTIONS 1272, 1273 AND 1275 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED, THIS NOTE IS BEING ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT. PROMPTLY UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FROM THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE FROM TIME TO TIME, THE BORROWER AGREES TO PROVIDE TO SUCH HOLDER THE ISSUE PRICE, AMOUNT OF ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT, ISSUE DATE, AND YIELD TO MATURITY.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Borrower and each other Person party to the Agreement as a Borrower from time to time shall ensure that at any time during the term of this Agreement no proceeds under any Loan will be on-lent or made otherwise available, directly or indirectly, to any Swiss Subsidiary and/or having its registered office in Switzerland and/or qualifying as a Swiss resident pursuant to article 9 of the Swiss Withholding Tax Act; or otherwise be used or made available, directly or indirectly, in each case, in a manner which would constitute a "harmful use of proceeds in Switzerland" (*schädliche Mittelverwendung in der Schweiz*) as interpreted by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration for purposes of Swiss Withholding Tax, unless and until a written confirmation or countersigned tax ruling application from the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been obtained (in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) confirming that such use of proceeds or making available of Ancillary Outstandings is permitted without interest and fees under any Loan Document becoming subject to Swiss Withholding Tax.

------

**2.05 Defaulting Lenders**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Adjustments**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Law:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Waivers and Amendments**. Such Defaulting Lender's right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in **Section 14.04** and in the definition of Required Lenders**.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) **Reallocation of Payments**. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Lenders for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to **Section 11** or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as follows: first, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement; second, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing Deposit Account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; <u>provided</u> that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in **Section 6** were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans (including interest thereon) of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a *pro rata* basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this **Section 2.05(a)(ii)** shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Defaulting Lender Cure**. If the Borrower and the Required Lenders agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a *pro rata* basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Proportionate Share, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; <u>provided</u> that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.

**SECTION 3** 

**PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST** 

**3.01 Repayments and Prepayments Generally; Application**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) There will be no scheduled repayments of the principal on the Loans prior to the Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date the Borrower shall repay the entire remaining outstanding principal balance of the Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, including all applicable accrued and unpaid (or payable) Prepayment Premiums and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as applicable, in full and in cash.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Borrower agrees that all amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in respect of any Loans, fees or interest accrued or accruing thereon, or any other Obligations, shall be repaid and prepaid solely in Dollars and no other currency. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, proceeds of each payment (including each repayment and prepayment of Loans) by or on behalf of the Borrower shall be deemed to be made ratably to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares of the Loans being repaid or prepaid.

------

**3.02 Interest**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Interest Generally**. The outstanding principal amount of the Loans, as well as all other outstanding Obligations (including, without limitation, any applicable Prepayment Premium, but excluding Warrant Obligations), shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate from and including the date of their Borrowing to but excluding the date they are repaid or prepaid. The Administrative Agent's determination of the Interest Rate shall be binding on the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Default Interest**. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) automatically, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under **Section 11.01(a)**, **(b)** or **(h)**, and (ii) at the election of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default (which shall apply retroactively to the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default), the Applicable Margin shall increase by 3.00% *per annum* (the Interest Rate, as increased pursuant to this **Section 3.02(b)**, being the "***Default Rate***"). If any Obligation is not paid when due under any applicable Loan Document, the amount thereof shall accrue interest at the Default Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Interest Payment Dates**. Accrued interest on the Loans (including interest accruing at the Default Rate) shall be payable in cash in arrears on each Payment Date with respect to the most recently completed Interest Period, and upon the payment or prepayment of the Loans, in whole or in part (calculated pro rata on the principal amount being so paid or prepaid); <u>provided</u> that interest payable at the Default Rate shall also be payable in cash from time to time on demand immediately following written notice thereof by the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) **Conforming Changes**. In connection with the use or administration of One-Month Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to, following consultation with Borrower, make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of One-Month Term SOFR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) **PIK Interest**. Any term or provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, all interest payable hereunder shall be payable in cash, except that, with respect to any Payment Date under clause (i) of the definition thereof, occurring on or prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, (i) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on such date and (ii) unless the Borrower has delivered written notice to the Administrative Agent of its election not to do so (and such written notice has been delivered not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Payment Date), the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to pay the maximum amount of interest permitted to be paid "in kind" that has on any Loan accrued during the Interest Period ending on such Payment Date, which amount shall be at a rate equal to 2.00% per annum "in kind" ("***PIK Interest***"); <u>provided</u> that (i) such election shall only relate to interest that (x) is due and payable on such Payment Date and (y) has accrued during the Interest Period ending on such Payment Date, and (ii) the remainder of any interest due and payable on such Payment Date will be due and payable in cash on such date. To the extent the Borrower elects or is deemed to elect to pay PIK Interest pursuant to this **Section 3.02(e)** on any Payment Date, such PIK Interest shall be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Loan, Second Tranche Delayed

------

Draw Loan, or Third Tranche Delayed Draw Loan, as applicable, on such Payment Date. All interest paid "in kind" pursuant to this **Section 3.02(e)** shall thereafter constitute additional principal of the Loan in respect of which it was paid for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the accrual of interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, all interest must be paid in cash, irrespective of any election at any time by the Borrower to pay such interest in the form of PIK Interest if (x) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on any Payment Date, or (y) the Payment Date occurs after the third anniversary of the Closing Date.

**3.03 Prepayments; Prepayment Premiums**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Optional Prepayments**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Subject to prior written notice pursuant to **clause (ii)** below and the payment of the Prepayment Premium pursuant to **clause (c)** below, the Borrower shall have the right to optionally prepay in whole or in part the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on any Business Day; <u>provided</u> that, in addition to the principal amount of the Loans so prepaid, the Borrower will pay to the Lenders on such date the sum of (x) the applicable Prepayment Premium on the principal amount of the Loans being so prepaid and (y) any accrued but unpaid interest on such principal amount of the Loans being so prepaid (such aggregate principal amount of the Loans being prepaid, plus the sum of **clauses (x)** and **(y)** above, being, the "***Redemption Price***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) A notice of optional prepayment shall be effective only if received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a date not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of prepayment. Each notice of optional prepayment shall specify the proposed prepayment date, the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest that will be paid on the proposed prepayment date, and, in reasonable detail, a calculation of the Prepayment Premium payable on such date. Each notice of optional prepayment shall be irrevocable once received by the Administrative Agent (but may be conditioned upon the consummation of another transaction).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Mandatory Prepayments**. Within five (5) Business Days of the receipt by any Obligor of Net Cash Proceeds (i) in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Net Cash Proceeds per fiscal year from the occurrence of any Casualty Event, or (ii) in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Net Cash Proceeds per fiscal year from non-ordinary course Asset Sales, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds to (1) the prepayment of outstanding Loans, (2) the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Loans being prepaid, and (3) with respect to prepayments made pursuant to **Section 3.03(b)(ii)**, the payment of the Prepayment Premium. Such Net Cash Proceeds shall be allocated to such prepayment and payments such that the full amount of principal, interest, and the Prepayment Premium, if applicable, payable hereunder shall be paid in full with such Net Cash Proceeds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall immediately result therefrom, if, within five (5) Business Days following the date of receipt by any Obligor of such Net Cash Proceeds, a Responsible Officer of the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a notice to the effect that the Borrower intends to apply (or cause to be applied) the Net Cash Proceeds from such Casualty Event or non-ordinary course Asset Sale, to (A) repair, refurbish, restore, replace or rebuild the asset subject to such Casualty Event or non-ordinary course Asset Sale, or (B) the cost of purchasing or constructing other assets useful in the business of the Borrower or another Obligor or business operating expenses (in the case of Net Cash Proceeds of business interruption insurance), then such Net Cash Proceeds may be applied for such purpose in lieu of such mandatory prepayment otherwise required pursuant to this **clause (b)** to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are actually applied for such purpose; <u>provided</u> that, in the event that Net Cash Proceeds

------

have not been so applied within one hundred and eighty (180) days (or to the extent committed to be so applied within such time, two hundred and seventy (270) days) following the date of receipt by any Obligor of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans to be made in an aggregate amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the unused balance of such Net Cash Proceeds with respect to such Casualty Event or non-ordinary course Asset Sale, as the case may be, together with payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Loans being so prepaid and the applicable Prepayment Premium, if applicable, with such amount of Net Cash Proceeds being allocated to the prepayment of principal, the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on such principal amount of the Loans being prepaid and the payment of the Prepayment Premium, if applicable, such that the full amount payable with respect to such mandatory prepayment is paid with such unused balance of Net Cash Proceeds. If any Obligor or Subsidiary thereof incurs or issues any Indebtedness after the Closing Date that is not permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to **Section 9.01**, the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Loans in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of all such non-permitted Indebtedness, together with the applicable Prepayment Premium, if any, on or prior to the date that is one (1) Business Day after the incurrence or issuance thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, which prepayment shall not cure any Default arising from the incurrence or issuance of such non-permitted Indebtedness).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Prepayment Premium**. Upon the occurrence of any Prepayment Premium Trigger Event, the applicable Prepayment Premium shall be immediately earned, due and payable in cash. If the Prepayment Premium Trigger Event arises under (x) clause (i) of the definition thereof, the Prepayment Premium shall be calculated and immediately due and payable in respect of the principal amount of Loans prepaid or repaid on such date, or (y) clauses (ii) through (iii) of the definition thereof, the Prepayment Premium shall be calculated and immediately due and payable in respect of the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding as of such date (as if, for such purpose only, the full amount of all outstanding Loans were prepaid as of such date). Upon the occurrence of a Prepayment Premium Trigger Event, the applicable Prepayment Premium shall constitute part of the Obligations. It is agreed and understood that in light of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties hereto as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender's loss as a result of the occurrence of a Prepayment Premium Trigger Event, any Prepayment Premium earned under this Agreement shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as a result thereof, and each Obligor agrees that the Prepayment Premium is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM. Each Obligor expressly agrees that: (i) the Prepayment Premium is reasonable and the product of an arm's length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (ii) the Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (iii) there has been a course of conduct between the Lenders and the Obligors giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium; and (iv) each Obligor shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this section or any other provision of this Agreement relating to the Prepayment Premium.

**SECTION 4** 

**PAYMENTS, ETC.** 

**4.01 Payments**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Payments Generally**. Each payment of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Obligors under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds, without deduction, set off or counterclaim, to an account to be designated (at least two (2) Business Days prior to the payment date) by the Administrative Agent by notice in writing to the Borrower, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date on which such payment is due (each such payment made after such time on such due date shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Application of Insufficient Payments**. Subject to **Section 3.03(b)** (with respect to the application of mandatory prepayment proceeds) and **Section 11.03** (with respect to the application of any proceeds upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), if at any other time insufficient funds are received by or made available to the Administrative Agent, for purposes of fully paying all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied in accordance with **clauses (a)**, **(b)**, **(c)** and **(d)** of **Section 11.03**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Non-Business Days**. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall continue to accrue and be payable through the period of such extension; <u>provided</u> that if such next succeeding Business Day would fall after the Maturity Date, payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

**4.02 Computations**. All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed during the period for which payable.

**4.03 Set-Off**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Set-Off Generally**. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, any Lender and any of their Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor (other than an Excluded Account) against any and all of the Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations) then due and payable, whether or not such Person shall have made any demand. Any Person exercising rights of set-off hereunder agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; <u>provided</u> that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their Affiliates under this **Section 4.03(a)** are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Persons may have. If a Defaulting Lender or any of its Affiliates exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of **<u>Section</u> <u>2.05</u>** and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender or Affiliate thereof from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender or Affiliate thereof as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Exercise of Rights Not Required**. Nothing contained in **Section 4.03(a)** shall require the Administrative Agent, any Lender and any of their Affiliates to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of such Persons to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of any Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Payments Set Aside**. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Obligor is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of the foregoing exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including

------

pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, then (i) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (ii) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

**SECTION 5** 

**YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.** 

**5.01 Additional Costs**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Change in Law Generally**. If, on or after the Closing Date, the adoption of any Law, or any change in any Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or its lending office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, contribution, insurance assessment or similar requirement, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date or if later, the date such Lender becomes a party hereto, against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, such Lender (or its lending office) or other Recipient or shall impose on such Lender (or its lending office) or other Recipient any other condition affecting the Loans or the Commitment, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or other Recipient of making or maintaining the Loans, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other Recipient under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or subject any Lender or other Recipient to any Taxes on its Loan, Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital (if any) attributable thereto (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in **clause (ii)** through **(iv)** of the definition of "***Excluded Taxes***" and (iii) Connection Income Taxes), then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or other Recipient within ten (10) Business Days of written demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient for such increased cost or reduction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Change in Capital Requirements**. If a Lender shall have determined that, on or after the Closing Date (or if later, the date such Lender became a party hereto), the adoption of any Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder or the Loans to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive by an amount reasonably deemed by it to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender within ten (10) Business Days of written demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Notification by Lender**. Each Lender promptly will notify the Borrower of any event of which it has Knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this **Section 5.01**. Before giving any such notice pursuant to this **Section 5.01(c)** such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation (x) will, in the reasonable judgment of such

------

Lender, avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and (y) will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of such Lender claiming compensation under this **Section 5.01**, setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this **Section 5.01** for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than twelve (12) months before the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) **Other Changes**. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to constitute a change in Law for all purposes of this **Section 5.01**, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

**5.02 Illegality**. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that on or after the Closing Date the adoption of or any change in any Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any competent Governmental Authority shall make it unlawful for a Lender or its lending office to make or maintain the Loans (and, in the opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different lending office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing thereof, following which (i) such Lender's Commitment shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain the Loans hereunder and (ii) if such Law shall so mandate, the Loans of such Lender shall be prepaid by the Borrower on or before such date as shall be mandated by such Law in an amount equal to the Redemption Price applicable on the date of such prepayment in accordance with **Section 3.03(a)**.

**5.03 Taxes**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Payments Free of Taxes**. Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation (other than the Warrant Obligations) shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by any applicable Law. If any applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by an Obligor or the Administrative Agent in respect of any Obligation, then such Obligor or Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by such Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this **Section 5**) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding for Indemnified Taxes been made.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by such Recipient shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) **Indemnification by the Lenders**. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable documented expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this **paragraph (e)**.

In addition, any Lender shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by any Law as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in **Section 5.03(f)(ii)**) shall not be required if in such Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:

If any party to this Agreement determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this **Section 5** (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this **Section 5**), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this **Section 5** with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority

Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this **Section 5.03(g)**, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this **Section 5.03(g)** the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This **Section 5.03(g)** shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) **Mitigation Obligations**. If the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Recipient or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Recipient pursuant to **Section 5.01** or this **Section 5.03**, then such Recipient shall (at the request of the Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates if, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Recipient, such designation or assignment and delegation would (i) eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to **Section 5.01** or this **Section 5.03**, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) not subject such Recipient to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Recipient. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Recipient in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Survival**. Each party's obligations under this **Section 5.03** shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations.

**5.04 Delay in Requests**. Failure or delay on the part of any Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to this **Section 5** shall not constitute a waiver of such Recipient's right to demand such compensation; <u>provided</u> that if such Recipient has not provided the appropriate notice within 365 days of the event or change giving rise to such increased cost or reduction, then the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender pursuant to this **Section 5**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Obligor will take such action, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries) to take such action, from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that all Subsidiaries are "Subsidiary Guarantors" hereunder.

------

Subsidiaries) pursuant to documentation (including any foreign law governed documentation as may be necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agents sole discretion) such that, following such joinder, solely with respect to clause (i) above, the Revenue attributable to any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary for such period shall be less than (A) five percent (5%) individually or (B) ten percent (10%) in the aggregate of the aggregate Revenue of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such period or, solely with respect to clause (ii) above, the cash and other assets maintained by any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary shall be less than (A) five percent (5%) individually or (B) ten percent (10%) in the aggregate when taken together with all other Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries of the aggregate value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Following any such joinder, such designated foreign Subsidiaries shall no longer be Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries and shall be Subsidiary Guarantors for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and shall not be re-designated as Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Subsidiary Guarantor may be re-designated as a Excluded Foreign Subsidiary (and thus shall not be treated as a Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document) if on or after the date of such joinder, the adoption of any Law, or any change in any Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, in each case, is reasonably expected to result in material adverse tax consequences which the Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable discretion in consultation with the Borrower would exceed the value to the Lenders of such Subsidiary continuing to be a Subsidiary Guarantor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Further Assurances**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Such Obligor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement, subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) In the event that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries acquires any real property with a value in excess of $1,000,000 during the term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and provide the Administrative Agent with a description of such real property, the acquisition date thereof and the purchase price therefor. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver a mortgage with respect to such acquired real property to secure the Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) **Costs and Benefits**. Notwithstanding any term or provision of this **Section 8.12** to the contrary, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to require a Lien or a security interest in the Equity Interests of, or Guarantee from, any newly acquired or created Subsidiary of the Borrower, or a Lien or security interest on any assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Borrower may request in writing to the Administrative Agent waive the requirements of this **Section 8.12** to provide a Lien, security interest or Guarantee, as the case may be, due to the cost or burden thereof to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (when taken as a whole) being unreasonably excessive relative to the benefit that would inure to the Secured Parties, and describing such cost or burden in reasonable detail. Upon receipt of any such written notice, the Administrative Agent shall review and consider such request

------

in good faith and, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request, the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole but commercially reasonable discretion, and notify the Borrower of such determination, whether the Administrative Agent will grant such request for a waiver. With respect to any Subsidiary for which the requirement to provide a Lien, security interest or Guarantee, as they case may be, has been waived by the Administrative Agent in accordance with this **Section 8.12(c)**, such waiver may be terminated by the Administrative Agent if it determines in its sole but commercially reasonable discretion that the cost or burden of providing such Lien, security interest or Guarantee is no longer unreasonably excessive relative to the benefits that would inure to the Secured Parties. If such waiver is terminated, such Subsidiary shall be required to comply with the requirements of this **Section 8.12**.

**8.13 Termination of Non-Permitted Liens**. In the event that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall become aware or be notified by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of the existence of any outstanding Lien against any asset or property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, which Lien is not a Permitted Lien, the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly terminate or cause the termination of such Lien.

**13.09 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations**. In any action or proceeding involving any provincial, territorial or state corporate Law, or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under **Section 13.01** would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of **Section 13.08**, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under **Section 13.01**, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

This Maximum Amount of freely disposable shareholder or quotaholder equity shall be determined in accordance with Swiss law and applicable Swiss accounting principles, and, if and to the extent required by applicable Swiss law, shall be confirmed by the auditors of the relevant Swiss Subsidiary on the basis of an audited interim balance sheet as of that time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the notification procedure pursuant to sub-paragraph (i) above does not apply, deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at such rate (currently 35% at the date of this Agreement) as is in force from time to time from any such payment or enforcement proceeds used to discharge Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations, and pay, without delay, any such Swiss Withholding Tax deducted to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) notify the Administrative Agent that such notification or, as the case may be, deduction has been made, and provide the Administrative Agent with evidence that such a notification of the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been made or such Swiss Withholding Tax deducted has been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, as the case may be; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) in the case of a deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax use its reasonable efforts that it or any Obligor, which is entitled to a full or partial refund of Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment or enforcement proceeds, will, as soon as possible after such deduction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) request a refund of Swiss Withholding Tax under applicable Law (including tax treaties); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) pay to the Administrative Agent upon receipt any amount so refunded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Obligor and the relevant Swiss Subsidiary shall promptly take and promptly cause to be taken any action, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the passing of any shareholders' or quotaholders' resolutions to approve the payment or use of the enforcement proceeds, which may be required as a matter of Swiss mandatory law in force at the time payment is requested or at the time of enforcement in order to allow a prompt payment or use of the enforcement proceeds;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) preparation of an up-to-date audited balance sheet of the relevant Swiss Subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) revaluation of hidden reserves (to the extent permitted by mandatory Swiss law);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) to the extent permitted by applicable Law and Swiss accounting standards, write-up or realize any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for the relevant Swiss Subsidiary's business (*nicht betriebsnotwendig*); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) all such other measures necessary or useful to allow the relevant Swiss Subsidiary to make payments or use enforcement proceeds as agreed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Obligor, jointly and severally, hereby indemnifies the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and their respective successors, transferees or assigns and their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, advisors and controlling parties (each, an "***Indemnified Party***") from and against, and agrees to hold them harmless against, any and all Claims and Losses of any kind (limited to, in the case of legal counsel, the reasonable and documented (in reasonable detail) charges and disbursements of one lead counsel for all Indemnified Parties, together, and one additional local outside counsel in each material jurisdiction or discipline in each case for the Indemnified Parties together and, in the case of actual conflict of interest, one additional such set of applicable counsel), joint or several, that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or relating to any investigation, litigation or proceeding or the preparation of any defense with respect thereto arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the Transactions or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds of the Loans, whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Obligor, any of its Subsidiaries, any of its shareholders or creditors, an Indemnified Party or any other Person, or an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto, and whether or not any of the conditions precedent set forth in **<u>Section</u> <u>6</u>** are satisfied or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, except (x) to the extent such Claim or Loss is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party's material breach, gross negligence or willful misconduct, (y) result from a claim brought by any Obligor against an Indemnified Party for a breach in bad faith of such Indemnified Party's funding obligations hereunder, if such Obligor has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) any dispute solely among Indemnified Parties. No Obligor shall assert any claim against any Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Transactions or the actual or proposed use of proceeds of the Loans.

**14.05 Successors and Assigns**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **General**. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto or thereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby or thereby, except that the Obligors may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Any of the Lenders may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of **Section 14.05(b)**, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of **Section 14.05(e)** or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of **Section 14.05(f)**. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in **Section 14.05(e)** and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnified Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Assignments by Lenders**. Any of the Lenders may, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), at any time assign to one or more Eligible Transferees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) and the other Loan Documents; <u>provided</u> that no such assignment shall be made to the Borrower, an Affiliate of the Borrower, or any employees or directors of the Borrower at any time; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the assigning Lender shall provide a notice to the Borrower of such assignment promptly after such assignment. Subject to the recording thereof by the Lenders pursuant to **Section 14.05(d)**, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and correspondingly the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of a Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) and the other Loan Documents but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of **Section 5** and **Section 14.03**. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this **Section 14.05(b)** shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with **Section 14.05(e)**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Amendments to Loan Documents**. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Obligors agrees to enter into such amendments to the Loan Documents, and such additional Security Documents and other instruments and agreements, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Obligors, as shall reasonably be necessary to implement and give effect to any assignment made under this **Section 14.05**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) **Register**. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the name and address of any assignee of the Lenders and the Commitment and outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing thereto (the "***Register***"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the "Lender" hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) **Participations**. Any of the Lenders may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or any Obligor or any of such Obligor's Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a "***Participant***") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); <u>provided</u> that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lenders in connection therewith, (iv) the Participant has agreed to keep information with respect to this Agreement confidential in accordance with this **Section 14.16**, and (v) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing a Participant may not be any Person other than an Eligible Transferee. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, or (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest. Subject to this **Section 14.05(e)**, **Section 14.05(f)**,

------

and provided that the Participant complies with the obligations imposed on the Lenders under Article 5, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of **Section 5** to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to **Section 14.05(b)**, provided, that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to **Section 5** as if it were an assignee under **Section 14.05(b)**; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under **Section 5** with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from the adoption of any Law, or any change in any Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, in each case that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of **Section 4.03(a)** as though it were the Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other Obligations under the Loan Documents (the "***Participant Register***"); <u>provided</u> that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Commitments, Loans, letters of credit or its other Obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The documentation required under **Section 5.03(f)** from Participants shall be delivered to the Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) **Limitations on Rights of Participants**. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under **Section 5.01** or **5.03** than a Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent that (i) the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent and with disclosure in reasonable detail to the Borrower of any greater payment owed to such Participant, or (ii) the need for the greater payment results from a change in applicable Law after the Participant acquired the relevant participation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) **Certain Pledges**. The Lenders may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to secure obligations of the Lenders, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; <u>provided</u> that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lenders from any of their obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lenders as a party hereto.

**14.06 Survival**. The obligations of the Borrower under **Sections 5.01**, **5.02**, **5.03**, **14.03**, **14.05**, **14.09**, **14.10**, **14.11**, **14.12**, **14.13**, **14.14** and **14.16**, and the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under **Section 13** (solely to the extent guaranteeing any of the obligations under the foregoing Sections) shall survive the repayment of the Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnification obligations and any other obligations which pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document survive repayment of the Loans for which no claim has been made) and the termination of the Commitment and, in the case of the Lenders' assignment of any interest in the Commitment or the Loans hereunder, shall survive, in the case of any event or circumstance that occurred prior to the effective date of such assignment, the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that the Lenders may cease to be "Lenders" hereunder. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a Borrowing Notice, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty.

The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

**14.18 Judgment Currency**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in US Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the Exchange Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The obligations of the Obligors in respect of any sum due to the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than US Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase US Dollars with such other currency. If the amount of US Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in US Dollars, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent against such loss. If the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, the Administrative Agent shall remit such excess to the Borrower.

**14.19 Sharing of Payments by Lenders**.

------

accrued interest thereon being greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares of the aggregate amount of outstanding principal of and accrued interest on the Loans.

**14.20 USA PATRIOT Act**. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby notify the Obligors that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub.

**14.21 Contractual Recognition of Bail-In**(i) . Notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding between the Parties, each Party acknowledges and accepts that any liability of any Party to any other Party under or in connection with the Loan Documents may be subject to Bail-In Action by the relevant Resolution Authority and acknowledges and accepts to be bound by the effect of: (a) any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability, including (without limitation): (i) a reduction, in full or in part, in the principal amount, or outstanding amount due (including any accrued but unpaid interest) in respect of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred on, it; and (iii) a cancellation of any such liability; and (b) a variation of any term of any Loan Document to the extent necessary to give effect to any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability.

**14.22 Interest Rate Limitation**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the "***Maximum Rate***"). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

**14.23 Erroneous Payments** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, an "***<u>Erroneous Payment</u>***") and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day 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 Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the

------

Administrative Agent in same day funds at the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, 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 Payments received, including without limitation a waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to a Lender under this **Section 14.23(a)** shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without limiting **Section 14.23(a)**, each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Administrative Agent (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an "***<u>Erroneous Payment Notice</u>***"), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of receipt of such Erroneous Payment) with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, 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 Payments received, including without limitation, waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge (or deemed knowledge) of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than one (1) Business Day 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 Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In this **Section 14.23**, "***<u>Federal Funds Rate</u>***" means, for any day, the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System on such day, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the Business Day next succeeding such day; <u>provided</u> that if such day is not a Business Day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day shall be such rate on such transactions on the preceding Business Day as so published on the next succeeding Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, no Obligor nor any of its Affiliates shall have any additional obligations or liabilities directly or indirectly arising out of this **Section 14.23** in respect of any Erroneous Payment (including the repayment or recovery of any amounts) and, for clarity, it is understood and agreed that if an Obligor has paid any Obligations nothing in this **Section 14.23** (or any equivalent provision) in connection therewith shall require any such Obligor or any of its Affiliates to pay additional amounts that are duplicative of such previously paid amounts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the security interest of the Administrative Agent shall attach to such Pledged Collateral immediately upon any Grantor's acquisition of rights therein and shall not be affected by the failure of any Grantor to deliver a Pledge Supplement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Further Assurances</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Pledged Collateral</u>. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Administrative Agent shall have given prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent's intent to exercise its rights under this **Section 6**, each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any cash dividend on or other cash distribution or payment, if any, in respect of the Pledged Collateral, to the extent not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as applicable. At the request of the Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive all distributions and payments of any nature with respect to any Pledged Collateral, and all such distributions or payments received by such Grantor shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent and, in accordance with the Administrative Agent's instructions, remitted to the Administrative Agent or deposited to an account with the Administrative Agent in the form received (with any necessary endorsements or instruments of assignment or transfer). All cash, dividends, distributions or other payments received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of this **Section 6(b)** shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or instrument of assignment). Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default any such distributions and payments with respect to any such Pledged Collateral held in any Securities Account shall be held and retained in such Securities Account, in each case as part of the Collateral hereunder. Additionally, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, following concurrent written notice to any applicable Grantor of the Administrative Agent's intent to exercise its rights under this **Section 6**, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any Pledged Collateral held by such Grantor, and to exercise all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining thereto, as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of the foregoing rights afforded to it and shall not be responsible to such Grantor or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Voting Prior to and Upon an Event of Default</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing and Administrative Agent shall have given prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent's intent to exercise its rights under this **Section 6**, each Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Collateral held by such Grantor and to give consents, ratifications and waivers in respect thereof, and shall retain the power to control the direction, management and policies of any Person comprising such Pledged Collateral to the same

------

extent as such Grantor would if such Pledged Collateral were not pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement; <u>provided</u>, however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would have the effect of materially and adversely affect the Secured Parties' interests under the Loan Documents or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Documents. If applicable, such Grantor shall be deemed the beneficial owner of all such Pledged Collateral for purposes of Sections 13 and 16 of the Exchange Act and agrees to file all reports required to be filed by beneficial owners of securities thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this **subsection (c)** and to receive the distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to this **subsection (c)**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) In addition to each of the foregoing and any other rights of Administrative Agent as set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents, each Grantor grants to Administrative Agent (through itself, its representatives, designees or agents), an **IRREVOCABLE PROXY**, to vote all or any part of such Grantor's Pledged Collateral from time to time, in each case in any manner Administrative Agent deems advisable in its sole discretion, either for or against any or all matters submitted, or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners, managers or members, as the case may be, and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges, and remedies to which any such shareholders, partners, managers or members would be entitled (including, without limitation, giving or withholding written consents, ratifications, and waivers with respect to the Pledged Collateral, calling special meetings of the holders of the Pledged Collateral of any issuer and voting at such meetings). The **IRREVOCABLE PROXY** granted hereby is effective automatically, without the necessity that any other action (including, without limitation, that any transfer of any of the Pledged Collateral be recorded on the Books of the relevant Grantor or issuer) be taken by any Person (including the relevant Grantor or issuer of any Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof), is coupled with an interest, and shall be irrevocable, shall survive the bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of any relevant Grantor, and shall terminate only on the Maturity Date. Each Grantor covenants and agrees that prior to the expiration of such **IRREVOCABLE PROXY** pursuant to applicable Law, if applicable, such Grantor will reaffirm such irrevocable proxy in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall only exercise the irrevocable proxy set forth in this **Section 6(c)(ii)** upon providing prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent's intent to exercise its rights under this **Section 6** and solely while any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and immediately upon waiver of such Event of Default (and so long as no separate or future Event of Default has occurred and/or is continuing), shall immediately cease (or take all reasonably necessary actions available) to exercise such irrevocable proxy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Each Grantor covenants and agrees that on the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the date of expiration (by operation of applicable law) of the irrevocable proxy granted pursuant to this **subsection (c)** hereto, such Grantor shall automatically be deemed to grant the Administrative Agent a new irrevocable proxy, on the same terms as those previously granted pursuant to this **subsection (c)**. Upon the reasonable written request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, such further evidence of such irrevocable proxy or such further irrevocable proxies to enable the Secured Party to vote the Pledged Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Certain Other Administrative Matters</u>. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and upon prior or concurrent written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent's intent to exercise its rights under **Section 10**, the Administrative Agent may cause any of the Pledged Collateral to be transferred into its name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (subject to the revocable rights specified in this **Section 6**). Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall at all times have the right to exchange uncertificated Pledged Collateral for certificated Pledged Collateral, and to exchange certificated Pledged Collateral for certificates of larger or smaller denominations, for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.

SECTION 7. <u>Authorization; Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact</u>. Subject to any prior notice requirements expressly set forth herein, in addition to (and not in limitation of) any other right or remedy provided to the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to, in the name of any Grantor, or in the name of the Administrative Agent or otherwise, without notice to or assent by any such Grantor, and each Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and any of the Administrative Agent's officers or employees or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) as such Grantor's true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) file any of the financing statements which must be filed to perfect or continue to perfect, maintain the priority of or provide notice of the Administrative Agent's Lien in the Collateral;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) take possession of and endorse any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other forms of payment or security and collect any Proceeds of any Collateral;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) sign and endorse any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral, warehouse or storage receipts, drafts against customers or other obligors, assignments, notices of assignment, verifications and notices to customers or other obligors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) notify the U.S. Postal Service and other postal authorities to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to such Grantor to such address as the Administrative Agent may designate; and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, establish with any Person lockbox or similar arrangements for the payment of the Rights to Payment of such Grantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) send requests for verification of Rights to Payment to the customers or other obligors of such Grantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) contact, or direct such Grantor to contact, all account debtors and other obligors on the Rights to Payment of such Grantor and instruct such account debtors and other obligors to make all payments directly to the Administrative Agent;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) assert, adjust, sue for, compromise or release any Claims under any policies of insurance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) exercise dominion and control over, and refuse to permit further withdrawals from, any Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Commodity Accounts or any other account, in each case, other than Excluded Accounts, of such Grantor maintained with the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other bank, financial institution or other Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) notify each Person maintaining lockbox or similar arrangements for the payment of the Rights to Payment of such Grantor to remit all amounts representing collections on such Rights to Payment directly to the Administrative Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and receipts for any and all Rights to Payment of such Grantor, enforce payment or any other rights in respect of the Rights to Payment and other Collateral, grant consents, agree to any amendments, modifications or waivers of the agreements and documents governing such Rights to Payment and other Collateral, and otherwise file any Claims, take any action or institute, defend, settle or adjust any actions, suits or proceedings with respect to the Collateral, as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to maintain, preserve and protect the Collateral, to collect the Collateral or to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) execute any and all applications, documents, papers and instruments necessary for the Administrative Agent to use, prosecute, maintain, enforce, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Intellectual Property Collateral and grant or issue any license or sublicense, or any other right with respect to, any Intellectual Property Collateral, in each case only to the extent of such Grantor's right, title and interest therein;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) execute any and all endorsements, assignments or other documents and instruments necessary to sell, lease, assign, convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of the Collateral, in each case only to the extent of such Grantor's right, title and interest therein;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) execute and deliver to any securities intermediary or other Person any entitlement order or other notice, document or instrument which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Deposit Accounts and Investment Property of such Grantor and the Administrative Agent's security interest therein; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) execute any and all such other documents and instruments, and do any and all acts and things for and on behalf of such Grantor, which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Collateral and the Administrative Agent's security interest therein and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent agrees that, except upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney, or any rights granted to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to **clauses (b)** through **(o)**. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as the Lenders have any Commitments or the Obligations (other than Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations and any other obligations which pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document survive repayment of the Loans for which no claim has been made) have not been indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

------

SECTION 8. <u>Agent Performance of Grantor Obligations</u>. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay under or in connection with this Agreement, and such Grantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket amounts paid, or reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred, by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this **Section 8**.

SECTION 9. <u>Agent's Duties</u>. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of the rights, privileges or powers afforded to it and shall not be responsible to any Grantor or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of Collateral in the Administrative Agent's possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to exercise or preserve any rights, privileges or powers pertaining to the Collateral.

SECTION 10. <u>Remedies</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Remedies</u>. Subject to any notice requirements expressly set forth herein, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty or any other Loan Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the NY UCC and other applicable Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Administrative Agent may peaceably enter any premises of such Grantor, take possession of any Collateral, remove or dispose of all or part of the Collateral on any premises of such Grantor or elsewhere, or, in the case of Equipment, render it nonfunctional, and otherwise collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, and demand, give receipt for, settle, renew, extend, exchange, compromise, adjust, or sue for all or any part of the Collateral, as the Administrative Agent may determine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Administrative Agent may require such Grantor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent, at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Administrative Agent may use or transfer any of such Grantor's rights and interests in any Intellectual Property Collateral, including by license, by sublicense (to the extent permitted by an applicable license and to the extent of such Grantor's rights, title and interests therein) or otherwise, on such conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent may determine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Administrative Agent may secure the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof (to the extent and in the manner provided by applicable Law).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Administrative Agent may withdraw (or cause to be withdrawn) any and all funds from any Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts, in each case, other than Excluded Accounts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) The Administrative Agent may sell, resell, lease, use, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing (utilizing in connection therewith any of such Grantor's assets, without charge or liability to the Administrative Agent therefor) at public or private sale, by one or more Contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, for cash or credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, all as the Administrative Agent deems advisable; <u>provided</u>, however, that such Grantor shall be credited with the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and each of the other Secured Parties shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption such Grantor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by applicable Law. The Administrative Agent shall give such Grantor such notice of any public or private sale as may be required by the NY UCC or other applicable Law. Such Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to make a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other Person liable for them and the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may release, modify or waive any Collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Secured Obligations, all without affecting the Administrative Agent's or any other Secured Party's rights against such Grantor. Such Grantor waives any right it may have to require the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to pursue any third Person for any of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If the Administrative Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, such Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by the Administrative Agent and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Administrative Agent may resell the Collateral and the Grantors shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>License.</u> In addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights or remedies provided herein or by applicable Law, for the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this **Section 10** or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide and assignable right and license (exercisable without payment or royalty or other compensation to such Grantor, but exercisable only upon the occurrence of and only during the continuance of an Event of Default; <u>provided</u> that any license, transfer or other right granted or made during the continuance of an Event of Default shall persist thereafter) to use, exploit, reproduce, display, perform, modify, sell, transfer, assign, otherwise dispose of, license, sublicense, prosecute, maintain and enforce any Intellectual Property Collateral, in any form or medium, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Application of Proceeds.</u> The cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of any Grantor's Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect of such Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall be applied in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Any surplus thereof which exists after payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations shall be promptly paid over to such Grantor or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the NY UCC or other applicable Law. Each Grantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral.

SECTION 11. <u>Certain Waivers.</u> Each Grantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) any right of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Collateral or other collateral or security for the Secured Obligations; (b) any right to require the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties (i) to proceed against any Person, (ii) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent's or any of the other Secured Parties' power, or (iv) to make or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Collateral; and (c) all Claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral.

SECTION 12. <u>Notices.</u> All notices or other communications hereunder shall be given in the manner and to the addresses specified in Section 14.02 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 13. <u>No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.</u> No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party.

SECTION 14. <u>Binding Effect.</u> This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Grantor, the Administrative Agent, each Secured Party and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall bind any Person who becomes bound as a debtor, agent or secured party to this Agreement.

SECTION 15. <u>Governing Law.</u> This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction; provided that Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law shall apply.

------

SECTION 16. <u>Submission to Jurisdiction</u>. (a) Each Grantor agrees that any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof may be brought initially in the federal or state courts in New York, New York or in the courts of its own corporate domicile and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment. This **Section 16** is for the benefit of the Secured Parties only and, as a result, no Secured Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by any Law, the Secured Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Waiver of Venue</u>. Each Grantor irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and hereby further irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any Claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. A final judgment (in respect of which time for all appeals has elapsed) in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which such Grantor is or may be subject, by suit upon judgment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Service of Process</u>. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in **Section 12**. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

SECTION 17. <u>Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

SECTION 18. <u>Entire Agreement; Amendment.</u> This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof, including any confidentiality (or similar) agreements. Each Grantor acknowledges, represents and warrants that in deciding to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in taking or not taking any action hereunder or thereunder, it has not relied, and will not rely, on any statement, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or understanding, whether written or oral, of or with the Lenders other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement shall not be amended except by the written agreement of the parties as provided in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 19. <u>Severability.</u> If any provision hereof is found by a court to be invalid or unenforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by any Law the parties agree that such invalidity or unenforceability shall not impair the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

------

SECTION 20. <u>Counterparts; Electronic Signatures</u>. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic transmission (in PDF format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. Any signature (including, without limitation, (x) any electronic symbol or process attached to, or associated with, a Contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such Contract or record and (y) any facsimile or .pdf signature) hereto or the other Loan Documents or to any other certificate, agreement or document related to any Loan Document or the Transactions, and any contract formation or record-keeping, in each case, through electronic means, shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state Law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and the parties hereto hereby waive any objection to the contrary.

SECTION 21. <u>No Inconsistent Requirements.</u> Each Grantor acknowledges that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms and provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and agrees that all such covenants, terms and provisions are cumulative and all shall be performed and satisfied in accordance with their respective terms. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to conflict with the Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall govern.

SECTION 22. <u>Accession.</u> At such time following the date hereof as any Person (an "***Acceding Grantor***") is required to accede hereto pursuant to the terms of Section 8.11 of the Credit Agreement, such Acceding Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an accession agreement substantially in the form of **Exhibit A** (an "***Accession Agreement***"), signifying its agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Grantor to the same extent as if such Acceding Grantor had originally executed this Agreement as of the date hereof.

If the Closing Sale Price cannot be calculated for a security on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Sale Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the Holder. If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then the board of directors of the Company shall use its good faith judgment to determine the fair market value. The board of directors' determination shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) "**Marketable Securities**" means equity interests meeting each of the following requirements: (i) the issuer thereof is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and is current in its filing of all required reports and other information under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; (ii) such equity interests are traded on a Trading Market; and (iii) if delivered (or to be delivered) to a Holder, such Holder would not be restricted from publicly re-selling any or all of such equity interests delivered to it, except to the extent that any such restriction (x) arises solely under federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, or (y) arises in connection with a customary market stand-off provision (or similar underwriters' lock-up) that does not extend beyond 180 days from the date of delivery of such equity interests to such Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) "**Securities Act**" means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) "**Trading Day**" means any weekday on which the Principal Trading Market is open for trading. If the Common Stock is not listed or admitted for trading, "Trading Day" means any day except any Saturday, any Sunday, any day which is a federal legal holiday in the United States or any day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) "**Trading Market**" means, with respect to the Warrants, the principal U.S. exchange or market on which such Warrants are quoted or available for trading, including the Nasdaq, the NYSE, the OTC Bulletin Board, "pink sheets" or otherwise.

------

2. *Issuance of Securities; Registration of Warrants*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Warrant has been issued as a condition precedent to, among other things, the making of loans under and pursuant to the Credit Agreement and Guaranty, dated as of March 2, 2026 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the "**Credit Agreement**"), among the Company, as borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Holder, in its capacity as the administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall register ownership of this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "**Warrant Register**"), in the name of the record Holder (which shall include the initial Holder or, as the case may be, any assignee to which this Warrant is assigned hereunder) from time to time. With a view to making available to the Holder the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration , the Company shall: (i) use reasonable commercial efforts to make and keep adequate public information available, as required by clause (c) of Rule 144, and (ii) use reasonable commercial efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

3. *Registration of Transfers*. Subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws and the rules of the Principal Trading Market, the Company shall, or will cause its Transfer Agent to, register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant with a properly completed and duly executed instrument of assignment in substantially the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>, and payment for all applicable transfer taxes (if any). Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "**New Warrant**") evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee, and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations in respect of the New Warrant that the Holder has in respect of this Warrant. The Company shall, or will cause its Transfer Agent to, prepare, issue and deliver at the Company's own expense any New Warrant under this <u>Section</u> <u>3</u>. Until due presentment for registration of transfer, the Company may treat the registered Holder hereof as the owner and holder for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

4. *Exercise and Duration of Warrants*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All or any part of this Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder in any manner permitted by this Warrant at any time and from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date until March 2, 2033 (the "**Expiration Date**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached as <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto (the "**Exercise Notice**"), completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (which may take the form of a "cashless exercise" if so indicated in the Exercise Notice pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>10</u> below). The date on which such exercise notice is delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an **"Exercise Date**." The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares, if any. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for the Exercise Price, was pre-funded to the Company on or before the Original Issue Date, and consequently no additional consideration (other than the Exercise Price) shall be required by to be paid by the Holder to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-funded exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever. **The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.**

------

5. *Delivery of Warrant Shares*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Trading Day after the Exercise Date), upon the request of the Holder, cause the Transfer Agent to credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with The Depository Trust Company ("**DTC**") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("**DWAC**") system or if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (the "**FAST Program**") or if the certificates are required to bear a legend regarding restriction on transferability, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company's share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. The Holder, or any natural person or legal entity (each, a "**Person**") so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder's DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If by the close of the first (1<sup>st</sup>) Trading Day after the Exercise Date, the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>5(a)</u> or fails to cause the Transfer Agent to credit the Holder's DTC account for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled, and if after the third (3rd) Trading Day following the Exercise Date and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise, provided such purchases shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner at prevailing market prices) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "**Buy-In**"), then the Company shall, within one (1) Trading Days after the Holder's written request and in the Holder's sole discretion, either (i) pay in cash to the Holder an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including commercially reasonable brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased, at which point the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Warrant Shares) or to cause the Holder's DTC account to be credited for such Warrant Shares shall terminate or (ii) (x) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of Holder's total purchase price (including commercially reasonable brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased in the Buy-In (assuming such sale was executed on commercially reasonable terms at prevailing market prices) over the product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock purchased in the Buy-In, times (B) the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date and (y) at the option of the Holder, either promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares or reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent permitted by law and subject to <u>Section</u> <u>5(b)</u>, the Company's obligations to cause the Transfer Agent to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with and subject to the terms hereof (including the limitations set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11</u> below) are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance that might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>5(b)</u>, nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

6. *Charges, Taxes and Expenses*. Issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock, if any, upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense (excluding any applicable stamp duties) in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; *provided*, *however*, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or the Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an Affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

------

7. *Replacement of Warrant*. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction (in such case) and, in each case, a customary and reasonable indemnity and surety bond, if requested by the Company. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company's obligation to issue the New Warrant.

8. *Reservation of Warrant Shares*. The Company covenants that it will, at all times while this Warrant is outstanding, reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares that are initially issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of <u>Section</u> <u>9</u>). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and non-assessable. The Company will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company further covenants that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Holder, take any actions to increase the par value of the Common Stock at any time while this Warrant is outstanding.

9. *Certain Adjustments*. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>9</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Stock Dividends and Splits</u>. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock issued and outstanding on the Original Issue Date and in accordance with the terms of such stock on the Original Issue Date, that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of capital stock any additional shares of Common Stock of the Company, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid on the date fixed therefor, the Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends. Any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Pro Rata Distributions</u>. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock for no consideration (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of Common Stock covered by the preceding paragraph) (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) cash or any other asset (in each case, a "**Distribution**"), other than a reclassification as to which <u>Section</u> <u>9(c)</u> applies, then in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the ownership limitation set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11(a)</u> hereof) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder's right

------

to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the ownership limitation set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11(a)</u> hereof, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until the earlier of (i) such time, if ever, as the delivery to such Holder of such portion would not result in the Holder exceeding the ownership limitation set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11(a)</u> hereof and (ii) such time as the Holder has exercised this Warrant).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Fundamental Transactions</u>. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, in which the Company is not the surviving entity and in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, (ii) the Company effects any sale, transfer or disposition to another Person of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) pursuant to any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person), holders of capital stock tender shares representing more than 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company and the Company or such other Person, as applicable, accepts such tender for payment, (iv) the Company consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company (except for any such transaction in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction maintain, in substantially the same proportions, the voting power of such Person immediately after the transaction) or (v) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock covered by <u>Section</u> <u>9(a)</u> above) (in any such case, a "**Fundamental Transaction**"), then following such Fundamental Transaction the Holder shall have the right to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein (the "**Alternate Consideration**"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Alternate Consideration payable to the Holder in connection with a Fundamental Transaction shall not include securities which are not Marketable Securities and the Holder acknowledges and agrees that the consent of the Holder, in its capacity as Holder under this Warrant, shall not be required in order for the Company to consummate a Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall not effect any Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or the Alternate Consideration includes securities of another Person unless (i) the Alternate Consideration is (a) cash and/or Marketable Securities and (b) the Company provides for the simultaneous "cashless exercise" of this Warrant pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>10</u> below or (ii) prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof, any successor to the Company, surviving entity or other Person (including any purchaser of assets of the Company) shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder such Alternate Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to receive, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (c) shall similarly apply to subsequent transactions analogous of a Fundamental Transaction type.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Number of Warrant Shares</u>. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>9</u> (including any adjustment to the Exercise Price that would have been effected but for the final sentence in this paragraph (d)), the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Exercise Price be adjusted below the par value of the Common Stock then in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Calculations</u>. All calculations under this <u>Section</u> <u>9</u> shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent or the nearest share, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Notice of Adjustments</u>. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>9</u>, the Company at its expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly compute such adjustment, in good faith, in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Transfer Agent.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Notice of Corporate Events</u>. If, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its Common Stock, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, except if such notice and the contents thereof shall be deemed to constitute material non-public information, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice of such transaction at least ten (10) days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. In addition, if while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>9(c)</u>, other than a Fundamental Transaction under clause (iii) of <u>Section</u> <u>9(c)</u>, then, except if such notice and the contents thereof shall be deemed to constitute material non-public information, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice of such Fundamental Transaction at least ten (10) days prior to the date such Fundamental Transaction is consummated.

10. *Payment of Cashless Exercise Price*. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a "cashless exercise" in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares in an exchange of securities effected pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act as determined as follows:

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

"X" equals the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;

"Y" equals the total number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised;

"A" equals the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock as of the Trading Day on the date immediately preceding the Exercise Date; and

"B" equals the Exercise Price per Warrant Share then in effect on the Exercise Date.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in such a "cashless exercise" transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the Original Issue Date (provided that the Commission continues to take the position that such treatment is proper at the time of such exercise).

To the extent this Warrant has not been exercised in full by the Holder prior to the on the business day immediately preceding the Expiration Date, any portion of this Warrant that remains unexercised on such date shall be deemed to have been exercised automatically pursuant to a cashless exercise as set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>10</u>, in whole (and not in part), on such date; provided that, in the event that as of the business day immediately preceding the Expiration Date the Fair Market Value of a Warrant Share is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then such automatic cashless exercise shall not occur.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, in no event will the exercise of this Warrant be settled in cash.

11. *Limitations on Exercise*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares which, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, to exceed 9.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 4.99%) (the "**Maximum Percentage**") of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed 9.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 4.99%) of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, filed with the Commission prior to the Exercise Date, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within three (3) Trading Days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided that any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>11(a)</u>, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that do not have voting power (including without limitation any securities of the Company which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock), is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) This <u>Section</u> <u>11</u> shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in <u>Section</u> <u>9(c)</u> of this Warrant.

12. At any time after the Original Issue Date, and upon written notice to the Company (the "**Termination Notification**"), the Holder shall have the right to request that the Company terminate this Warrant and the Company shall have the obligation to terminate this Warrant within two (2) business days of the Holder's delivery of the Termination Notification and shall provide written evidence to the Holder's satisfaction evidencing such termination, and at such time, the Warrant will have been permanently surrendered, and all rights in the Warrant will have been relinquished in exchange for no consideration.

13. *No Fractional Shares*. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the next whole number and the Company shall pay the Holder in cash the fair market value (based on the Closing Sale Price) for any such fractional shares.

14. *Notices*. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or confirmed e-mail prior to 5:30 P.M., New York City time, on a Trading Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or confirmed e-mail on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30

15. *Warrant Agent*. The Company shall initially serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon ten (10) days' notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder's last address as shown on the Warrant Register.

16. *Legend; Legend Removal*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Holder, by acceptance of the Warrant, agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>16</u> and the restrictive legend requirements set forth on the face of the Warrant and further agrees that such Holder shall not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of the Warrant or any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act. Subject to <u>clause (a)</u> below, the Warrant and all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrant (unless registered under the Securities Act) may be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THE WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THE WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "**ACT**"), OR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY STATE OR FOREIGN SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED UNLESS (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE ACT AND IS QUALIFIED UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FOREIGN LAW OR (II) THE TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE ACT AND THE QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FOREIGN LAW AND, IF THE COMPANY REQUESTS, AN OPINION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT HAS BEEN RENDERED BY COUNSEL."

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to receipt from the Holder by the Company and the Transfer Agent of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith, upon the earliest of such time as the Warrant Shares (i) have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) have been sold pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b)(1) without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirements under Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor provision), the Company shall, in accordance with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>16(b)</u> and within two (2) Trading Days of any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable documentation referred to above, (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Warrant Shares, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Warrant Shares subject to legend removal hereunder may be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder's prime broker with the DTC System as directed by such investor. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Warrant Shares by the Holder pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Holder with the requirements of the Warrant if requested by the Holder, the Company shall request the Transfer Agent to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Warrant Shares and to make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two (2) Trading Days of any such request therefor from the Holder provided that the Company has timely received from the Holder customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company in connection therewith.

17. *Miscellaneous*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>No Rights as a Stockholder</u>. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person's capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person's capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant unless otherwise expressly provided herein. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Authorized Shares</u>. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate or articles of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant may be assigned by the Holder. This Warrant may not be assigned by the Company without the written consent of the Holder, except to a successor in the event of a Fundamental Transaction. This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder, or their successors and assigns.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Amendment and Waiver</u>. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of the Warrants may be amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Acceptance</u>. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall constitute acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Governing Law; Jurisdiction</u>. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for their reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding. Each of the Company and the Holder hereby waives all rights to a trial by jury.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Headings</u>. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Severability</u>. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the Company and the Holder will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.
