and Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transfers and assigns to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the Credit Agreement, the prompt and complete payment and performance by Borrower when due (whether at the stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of Borrower Obligations. 
 (b) The guarantee contained in this Section 2
shall remain in full force and effect and shall serve as a continuing security, until all of the Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full. 

(c) No payment made by Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by Agent or any
Lender from Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in
reduction of or in payment of the Secured Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such
Guarantor in respect of the Secured Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Secured Obligations), remain liable for the Secured Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until
the Secured Obligations are Paid in Full. 
 2.2. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a
Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of
such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations
and liabilities of any Guarantor to Agent and Lenders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 

2.3. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off
or application of funds of any Guarantor by Agent or any Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Agent or any Lender against Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of
offset held by Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Secured Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor
hereunder, until all of the Secured Obligations are Paid in Full; provided, however, that each Guarantor agrees that such right of subrogation shall be automatically (without any further action) and irrevocably waived and released in its
entirety if any Collateral is acquired by a Person as a result of the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents, a court order or a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive plan. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of
such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Secured Obligations shall not have been Paid in Full (or when such right of subrogation shall have been waived), such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for Agent and Lenders,
segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be promptly turned over to Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed (but without any representation or warranty) by such
Guarantor to Agent, if required), to be applied against the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in a manner that is consistent with the provisions of Section 2.10.2 of the Credit Agreement. 

  
 4 

 2.4. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Secured Obligations. Each Guarantor shall
remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Secured Obligations made by Agent or any Lender
may be rescinded by Agent or such Lender and any of the Secured Obligations continued, and the Secured Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of
offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by Agent or any Lender, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from
time to time (provided that any such amendment, modification, supplement or termination complies with the relevant provisions of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and/or such other Loan Document), and any collateral security, guarantee or right
of offset at any time held by Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Secured Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Secured Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any
property subject thereto. 
 2.5. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional; Waivers. 

(a) Each Guarantor agrees that this Agreement is a guarantee of payment and performance when due and not of collectability. The liability of

validity, regularity or enforceability of any Loan Document; 
 (ii) any lack of validity, regularity or enforceability of
this Agreement;

exchange, release or non-perfection of any security interest in any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any of the Secured
Obligations; 
 (v) any failure on the part of Agent or any other Person to exercise, or any delay in exercising, any right
under any Loan Document; and 
 (vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor with respect to the Secured Obligations (including, without limitation, all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of collateral, and all defenses that Borrower may assert to the
repayment of the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, bankruptcy, lack of legal capacity, lender liability, accord and satisfaction, and usury), this Agreement
and the obligations of Guarantors under this Agreement, other than Payment in Full of the Guarantor Obligations. 

  
 5 

 (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that if Borrower or any other guarantor of all or a portion
of the Secured Obligations is the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency case under applicable law, it will not assert the pendency of such case or any order entered therein as a defense to the timely payment of the Secured Obligations. Each
Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Secured Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by Agent or any Lender upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2
or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Secured Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in
reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2, and all dealings between Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and Agent and Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to
have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives (i) diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon
Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Secured Obligations; (ii) notice of the existence or creation or renewal or non-payment of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (iii) all
diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon any Secured Obligations or any security for or guarantee of any Secured Obligations; (iv) any right to require Agent or any Lender, as a condition of payment or performance by
Guarantor, to (A) proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guarantor Obligations or any other Person, (B) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person,
(C) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Agent or any Lender in favor of Borrower or any other Person or (D) pursue any other remedy in the power of Agent or any Lender whatsoever;
(v) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the
Guarantor Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guarantor Obligations; (vi) any defense
based upon Agent or any Lender’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guarantor Obligations, except errors and omissions resulting from Agent or any Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable order and (vii) (A) any legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder and (B) any rights to
set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims. 
 (c) When making any demand hereunder or otherwise
pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against Borrower, any other
Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Secured Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by Agent or any Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or
remedies or to collect any payments from Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of Borrower, any other Guarantor or any
other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a
matter of law, of Agent or any Lender against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. Each Guarantor agrees that it is not a surety for purposes of any state
statutes providing defenses for sureties, and each Guarantor waives any right that it may have under such statutes to assert the applicability thereof to the provisions of this Agreement to require that Agent commence action against Borrower or any
other Person or against any of the Collateral. 

  
 6 

 (d) Agent or any Lender may, from time to time, at its sole discretion and without notice to
any Guarantor, take any or all of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain a security interest in any property to secure any of the Secured Obligations or any obligation hereunder, (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary
obligation of any obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) extend or renew any of the Secured Obligations for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the
Secured Obligations, or release or compromise any obligation of any Guarantor or any obligation of any nature of any other obligor with respect to any of the Secured Obligations, (iv) release any guarantee or right of offset or its security
interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for, all or any part of any property securing any of the Secured Obligations or any obligation hereunder, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer

or not Agent or such Lender shall have resorted to any property securing any of the Secured Obligations or any obligation hereunder or shall have proceeded against any other Guarantor or any other obligor primarily or secondarily obligated with
respect to any of the Secured Obligations. 
 2.6. Payments. Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to
Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the office of Agent specified in the Credit Agreement. 

2.7. Joint and Several Liability of Guarantors 

(a) Each Guarantor is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial
accommodations to be provided by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Guarantor and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Guarantors to accept joint and several liability for
the Obligations. 
 (b) Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but
also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Guarantors, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under
this Section 2.7), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Guarantor without preferences or distinction among them. 

(c) If and to the extent that any Guarantor shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to
perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Guarantors will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are Paid in Full. 

(d) The Obligations of each Guarantor under the provisions of this Section 2.7 constitute the absolute and
unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Guarantor enforceable against each Guarantor to the full extent of its property and assets charged hereunder, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other
circumstances whatsoever, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of
such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

  
 7 

 (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Guarantor hereby waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any borrowing or any disbursement from any escrow account, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any
demand for any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Agent of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Guarantor hereby assents to, and waives, to the extent permitted by
law, notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or
acquiescence by the Agent or the Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Guarantor or any other Loan Party in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other
indulgences whatsoever by the Agent or the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition,
substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Guarantor or any other Loan Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Agent or any
Lender with respect to the failure by any Guarantor or any other Loan Party to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply
fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.7 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Guarantor, in whole or in part, from any of its
Obligations under this Section 2.7, it being the intention of each Guarantor that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Guarantor under this
Section 2.7 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 2.7 shall not be diminished or
rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to Loan Party or the Agent or any Lender. 

(f) Each Guarantor is obligated to repay the Obligations as a joint and several obligor under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To
the extent that any Guarantor shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to another Grantor hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Guarantor
(an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Guarantor making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors in an amount, for each of such other
Guarantors, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Guarantor’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Guarantors. As of any date
of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Guarantor hereunder without (i) rendering such
Guarantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, (ii) leaving such Guarantor
with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or Section 5 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, or (iii) leaving such
Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or Section 5 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act. All rights and
claims of contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this Section 2.7(f) shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible Payment in Full of the Obligations. The provisions of this
Section 2.7(f) shall, to the extent inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision. 

  
 8 

 (g) Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that as of the date
hereof such Guarantor is currently informed of the financial condition of each Loan Party and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Guarantor further
represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that such Guarantor has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor hereby covenants that such Guarantor will continue to keep informed of Guarantors’
financial condition, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations. 
 (h) The
provisions of this Section 2.7 are made for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all Guarantors as often as
occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Agent, such Lender, successor or assign first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any Guarantor or to exhaust any remedies
available to it or them against any Guarantor or any other Loan Party or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this
Section 2.7 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been Paid in Full. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be
restored or returned by the Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Guarantor, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.7 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such
payment had not been made. 
 (i) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation
against any other Guarantor with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the Agent or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security
therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been Paid in Full. Any claim which any Guarantor may have against any other Guarantor with respect to any payments to the Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are
hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the Obligations having been Paid in Full and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy,
receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Guarantor, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be Paid in Full before any
payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Guarantor therefor. 

(j) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the payment of any amounts due
with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Guarantor to any other Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the Obligations having been Paid in Full. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default and notice by Agent, such Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Guarantor owing to such Guarantor until the Obligations shall have been Paid in Full. If, notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, such Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor in trust for the Agent and Lenders, and such Guarantor shall
deliver any such amounts to the Agent for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.10.2 of the Credit Agreement.

(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations; provided, that the Collateral shall not include the Excluded Property. 

(b) Each Grantor has full right and power to grant to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a perfected, first-priority security
interest (subject to Permitted Liens) and Lien on the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, subject to no Liens of any kind in favor of any other Person (subject to any Permitted Liens). No Grantor is party to any agreement, document or instruction
that conflicts with this Section 3. 
 (c) Subject to Section 6.8 of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor

 (d) Irrespective of any provision in this Agreement, the prior
consent of Agent shall not be required in connection with the licensing or sublicensing of Intellectual Property pursuant to collaborations, licenses or other strategic transactions with third parties (“Permitted Licenses”)

any nature whatsoever that they purport to own free and clear of any and all Liens. As of the Closing Date (or the date such Grantor joins this Agreement as it relates to such Grantor), no financing statement or other public notice with respect to
all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except filings evidencing Permitted Liens and filings which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.2. Perfected First Priority Liens. Each Grantor has full right and power to grant to Agent the security interests contemplated

4.6. Investment Property. 

(a) Except as otherwise agreed to by Agent in its reasonable discretion, the shares of Pledged Equity pledged by each Grantor hereunder

$200,000 individually or $500,000 in the aggregate, Grantor shall notify Agent, and upon request by Agent, such Instrument, Certificated Security or tangible Chattel Paper shall be promptly delivered to Agent, duly indorsed in a manner reasonably
satisfactory to Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the request of Agent, any Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper
not theretofore delivered to Agent and at such time being held by any Grantor shall be immediately delivered to Agent, duly indorsed in a manner satisfactory to Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement and in the case of Electronic

(c) Subject to Section 6.8 of the Credit Agreement, at any time and from time to time, upon the reasonable written request of Agent, and
at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or
preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including (i) filing any financing or continuation statements under the Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the
security interests created hereby, and (ii) in the case of Investment Property, Deposit Accounts, Electronic Chattel Paper and Letter of Credit Rights and any other relevant Collateral, taking any actions necessary to enable Agent to obtain
“control” (within the meaning of Code) with respect thereto, in each case pursuant to documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no
Grantor shall be required to cause the Agent to have control over such Investment Property, Electronic Chattel Paper, Letter of Credit Rights or other relevant Collateral (other than any Deposit Account) having a value less than $200,000
individually or $500,000 in the aggregate. 

  
 13 

 (d) Such Grantor authorizes Agent to, at any time and from time to time, at such
Grantor’s expense, file financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral (including describing the Collateral as “all assets” of each Grantor, or words of similar effect), and which
contain any other information required pursuant to the Code for the sufficiency of the applicable filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, and each Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to
Agent promptly upon request. While an Event of Default is continuing, any such financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment may be signed (to the extent signature of a Grantor is required under applicable law) by Agent on behalf of any
Grantor and may be filed in any applicable jurisdiction. 
 (e) Subject to Section 6.8 of the Credit Agreement, such Grantor shall, at
any time and from time to time, upon reasonable request of Agent use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to obtain an acknowledgement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, of any bailee having possession of any of the
Collateral (provided that such Grantor shall not be required to obtain any such acknowledgement as it relates to Collateral having a value less than $200,000 individually or $500,000 in the aggregate unless otherwise required by Agent in writing at
any time following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), stating that the bailee holds such Collateral for Agent, and (ii) otherwise to ensure the continued perfection and priority of Agent’s security interest in any of
the Collateral and of the preservation of its rights therein to the extent required by this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. 
 5.3.
Changes in Locations, Name, etc. Except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall not, except upon 5 days’ prior written notice to Agent and delivery to Agent of (a) all additional financing statements and other

location at which Inventory or Equipment having a fair market value greater than $200,000 at any single location shall be kept: 

(i) permit any of the Inventory or Equipment to be kept at a location other than those listed on Schedule 3;
provided, that up to $200,000 in fair market value of any such Inventory and Equipment may be kept at any other single location with an aggregate limit of up to $500,000 in fair market value of any such Inventory and Equipment at all such
other locations; 
 (ii) change the location of its chief executive office from that specified on Schedule 2 or in any
subsequent notice delivered pursuant to this Section 5.3; or

Lenders, hold the same in trust for the benefit of the Agent and Lenders, notify Agent in writing of such receipt or entitlement, and, if requested 

  
 14 

 
by Agent, deliver the same forthwith to Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed (but without any representation or warranty) by such Grantor to Agent, if required, together with an
undated instrument of transfer covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if Agent so reasonably requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional Collateral for the
Secured Obligations. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Agent, (i) any sums paid upon or in respect of the Investment Property upon the liquidation or
dissolution of any Issuer shall be paid over to Agent to be held, at Agent’s option, either by it hereunder as additional Collateral for the Secured Obligations or applied to the Secured Obligations as provided in
Section 6.5, and (ii) in case any distribution of capital shall be made on or in respect of the Investment Property or any property shall be distributed upon or with respect to the Investment Property pursuant to the
recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any Issuer or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, the property so distributed shall, unless otherwise subject to a perfected Lien in favor of Agent, be delivered to Agent to be held, at
Agent’s option, either by it hereunder as additional Collateral for the Secured Obligations or applied to the Secured Obligations as provided in Section 6.5. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, if any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of the Investment Property shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to Agent, hold such money or property
in trust for Agent and Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, as additional Collateral for the Secured Obligations.

or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for Permitted Liens, or (iv) enter into any agreement or
undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, except, with respect to such Investment Property, shareholders’ agreements entered into by
such Grantor with respect to Persons in which such Grantor maintains an ownership interest of 50% or less. 
 (c) In the case of each
Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Investment Property issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it, (ii) it
will notify Agent promptly in writing of the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 5.4(a) with respect to the Investment Property issued by it and (iii) the terms of

(b) Except as permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement, such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act, or omit to do
any act, whereby any Patent pledged as Collateral may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, to the extent such act or omission could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(c) Except as permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement, such Grantor will not (and will not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to)

Grantor will notify Agent and Lenders promptly if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any Intellectual Property pledged as Collateral may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any
adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, or any court or tribunal in any
country) regarding, such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any such Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same, except to the extent that such forfeiture, abandonment or
dedication, or adverse determination or development would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (f) Whenever any
Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, or
any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report such filing to Agent concurrently with the next delivery of financial statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to

thereby.

representation or warranty) by such Grantor to Agent if required, in a collateral account maintained under the sole dominion and control of Agent, for application to the Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 6.5,
and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for Agent and Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. In connection with each such deposit of Proceeds of such Receivables such Grantor shall deliver to Agent a

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable in respect of each of the Receivables to observe and
perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable

Agreement and while an Event of Default is continuing, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to
use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property that constitutes part of the Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, to the extent such Intellectual Property may be so licensed or sublicensed, and wherever the same may be
located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by such Grantor of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Equity, Pledged Notes or Investment Property, and in
connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of such Pledged Equity, Pledged Notes and Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as

pertaining to such Investment Property, and (iv) exercise, or permit its nominee to exercise, any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if
it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other
structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of such Investment Property
with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but Agent shall have no duty
to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. 
 (c) Each
Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so
complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends, distributions or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to Agent.

 6.4. Proceeds to be Turned Over To Agent. In addition to the rights of Agent
specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables pledged as Collateral, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all such Proceeds of Collateral received by or on behalf of any Grantor
consisting of cash, checks and other cash equivalent items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for Agent and Lenders, and shall, at the written request of Agent, be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and forthwith upon receipt by such
Grantor, be turned over to Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed (but without any representation or warranty) by such Grantor to Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by Agent hereunder shall be applied to the Secured
Obligations as provided in Section 6.5. 
 6.5. Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Agent shall apply all or any part of Proceeds of Collateral held in any collateral account established pursuant hereto or otherwise received by Agent to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in
Section 2.9.2 of the Credit Agreement. 
 6.6. Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing, Agent, on behalf of Agent and Lenders, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured
Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, or any other applicable foreign or domestic law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall occur or be continuing, Agent, without demand of
performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and
notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and
deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Agent or any Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and
conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery with assumption of any credit risk. Agent may disclaim any warranties that might arise in connection with any such lease,
assignment, grant of option or other disposition of Collateral and have no obligation to provide any warranties at such time. Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any
such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from
time to time with or without notice. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or times as Agent deems
necessary or advisable. Each Grantor further agrees after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at places which Agent shall reasonably select, whether
at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection
therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of Agent and Lenders hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment of the
Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 2.9.2 of the Credit Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Agent or any Lender
arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder, except to the extent such claims, damages or demands arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or Lenders as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable order. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper so long as (a) it is given at least 15 days
before such sale or other disposition, and (b) contains such information as may be prescribed by applicable law. 

  
 20 

 6.7. Pledged Equity. Each Grantor recognizes that Agent may be unable to effect a
public sale of any or all the Pledged Equity, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted
group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such
private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.
Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Equity for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities or other interests for public sale under the Securities Act, or other
applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so. 
 6.8. Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for
any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient for the Secured Obligations to be Paid in Full and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by Agent or any Lender to collect such
deficiency. 
 6.9. Permitted Licenses. Agent hereby covenants and agrees that in connection with any foreclosure or other exercise
of Agent’s rights with respect to Permitted Licenses, Agent shall not terminate, limit, or otherwise adversely affect the rights of the licensees or sublicensees under such Permitted Licenses, so long as such licensee or sublicensee is not then
otherwise in default under the applicable Permitted License in a way that would permit the applicable licensor to terminate such Permitted License. 

6.10. Actions in Concert. Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement shall be incorporated herein by reference.

 7. Agent. 
 7.1.
Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. 

(a) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, each Grantor hereby
irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and proxy with full
irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of strictly carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute
any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives Agent the power and right, on behalf of and at
the expense of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following to the extent otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement (including the satisfaction of any
requirement to give notice to such Grantor prior to doing any of the following): 
 (i) in the name of such Grantor or its
own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse (but without any representation or warranty) and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any
other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise reasonably deemed appropriate by Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable pledged as
Collateral or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable; 

  
 21 

 (ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property pledged as Collateral, execute
and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as Agent may reasonably request to evidence Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such
Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby; 
 (iii) discharge Liens (other than Permitted Liens) levied or placed on or
threatened against the Collateral, and effect any repairs or insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof; 

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6 or 6.7, any
indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and 
 (v)
(A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Agent or as Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment
of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) sign and indorse (but without any representation or warranty) any invoices, freight or express
bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (D) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law
or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with
respect to any Collateral; (F) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as Agent may deem appropriate; (G) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark
pledged as Collateral, throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; (H) vote any right or interest with respect to any Investment Property pledged as
Collateral; (I) order good standing certificates and conduct lien searches in respect of such jurisdictions or offices as Agent may deem appropriate; and (J) generally sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or
otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and
things which Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Agent’s security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do. 

(b) THE POWER-OF-ATTORNEY AND PROXY GRANTED HEREBY IS COUPLED
WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. SUCH PROXY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AUTOMATICALLY UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUATION OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT AND WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF ANY ACTION
(INCLUDING ANY TRANSFER OF ANY INVESTMENT PROPERTY ON THE RECORD BOOKS OF THE ISSUER THEREOF) BY ANY PERSON (INCLUDING THE ISSUER OF THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY OR ANY OFFICER OR AGENT THEREOF). Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in any event
such power-of-attorney 

  
 22 

 
and proxy is intended to and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be valid and irrevocable until (x) the Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full and (y) Lenders
and Agent have no further obligations under the Loan Documents (excluding any obligations under the Residual Royalty Agreement). Such power-of-attorney and proxy shall
be valid and irrevocable as provided herein notwithstanding any limitations to the contrary set forth in the charter, bylaws or other organizational documents of the relevant entities. 

(c) Upon exercise of the proxy set forth herein, all prior proxies given by any Grantor with respect to any of the Investment Property pledged
as Collateral (other than to Agent or otherwise pursuant to the Loan Documents) are hereby revoked, and until the Secured Obligations are Paid in Full, no subsequent proxies (other than to Agent or otherwise under the Loan Documents) will be given
with respect to any of such Investment Property. To the extent permitted by this Agreement, Agent, as proxy, will be empowered and may exercise the irrevocable proxy to vote such Investment Property at any and all times, including but not limited
to, at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, however called, and at any adjournment thereof, or in any action by written consent, and may waive any notice otherwise required in connection therewith. To the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, Agent shall have no agency, fiduciary or other implied duties to any Grantor or any other party when acting in its capacity as such
attorney-in-fact or proxy. Each Grantor hereby waives and releases any claims that it may otherwise have against Agent with respect to any breach or alleged breach of
any such agency, fiduciary or other duty, other than claims resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable order.
Notwithstanding the foregoing grant of a power of attorney and proxy, Agent shall have no duty to exercise any such right or to preserve the same and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or for any delay in doing so. 

(d) Anything in Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights
under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1 unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(e) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so
to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense. 

(f) Each Grantor hereby ratifies that such attorneys shall be authorized hereunder to lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All
powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released. 

7.2. Duty of Agent. Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its
possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Agent or any Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for any failure to
demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so (except to the extent Agent, such Lender or such officers, directors, employees or agents acted with gross negligence or in willful misconduct as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable order) or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any
other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on Agent and Lenders hereunder are solely to protect Agent’s and Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent
or any Lender to exercise any such powers. Agent and Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents
shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except to the extent Agent or a Lender (or such officer, director, employee or agent) acted with gross negligence or in willful misconduct as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable order. 

  
 23 

 7.3. Photocopy of this Agreement. A photographic or other reproduction of this
Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction. 

7.4. Authority of Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of Agent under this Agreement with respect to
any action taken by Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement
shall, as between Agent and Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between Agent and the Grantors, Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be
acting as agent for Lenders with full and valid authority to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. 

8. Miscellaneous. 
 8.1.
[Reserved]. 
 8.2. Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement. 
 8.3.
Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement and each such notice, request or demand to or
upon any Grantor shall be addressed to such Grantor in care of Borrower at Borrower’s notice address set forth on Schedule 1. 

8.4. Indemnification by Grantors. Each Grantor hereby agrees, on a joint and several basis, to indemnify, exonerate and hold Agent,
each Lender and each of the officers, directors, employees, Affiliates and agents of Agent and each Lender (each a “Lender Party” and collectively, the “Lender Parties”) free and harmless from and against any and
all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, damages and expenses, including Legal Costs, but expressly excluding any consequential, special or lost profits damages (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
incurred by Lender Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to any act or omission by Borrower or any of its officer, directors, agents, including without limitation (a) any tender offer, merger, purchase of equity
interests, purchase of assets or other similar transaction financed or proposed to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any of the Loans, (b) the use, handling, release, emission, discharge,
transportation, storage, treatment or disposal of any hazardous substance at any property owned or leased by any Grantor or any Subsidiary, (c) any violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to conditions at any property owned or leased
by any Grantor or any Subsidiary or the operations conducted thereon, (d) the investigation, cleanup or remediation of offsite locations at which any Grantor or any Subsidiary or their respective predecessors are alleged to have directly or
indirectly disposed of hazardous substances, or (e) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Lender Party, except, in each case, to the extent any such Indemnified Liabilities
result from the applicable Lender Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable order. If and to the extent that the foregoing
undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, each Grantor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the 

  
 24 

 
payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive repayment of
the Secured Obligations, any foreclosure under, or any modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents and termination of this Agreement. 

8.5. Enforcement Expenses. 

(a) Each Grantor agrees, on a joint and several basis, to pay or reimburse on demand each Lender and Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Legal Costs) incurred in collecting against any Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or
otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with Section 10.4 of the Credit Agreement. 

(b) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save Agent and Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any
delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

(c) The agreements in this Section 8.5 shall survive repayment of the Secured Obligations, any foreclosure under, or
any modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents and termination of this Agreement. 
 8.6.
Captions. Captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement. 
 8.7.
Nature of Remedies. All Secured Obligations of each Grantor and rights of Agent and Lenders expressed herein or in any other Loan Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law. No failure to
exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. 
 8.8. Counterparts;
Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts with the same effect as if all parties had executed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute a single agreement. Further, the
parties hereto consent and agree that this Agreement may be signed and/or transmitted by e-mail of any .pdf file, .jpeg file, or any other electronic or image file, or any “electronic signature” as
defined under the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act, which includes any electronic signature provided using Orbit, Adobe Sign, DocuSign, or any other similar platform
identified by the parties hereto and reasonably available at no undue burden or expense to the Agent), except to the extent the Agent requires otherwise. Any such electronic signatures shall be valid, effective and legally binding as if such
electronic signatures were handwritten signatures and shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered for all purposes hereunder. No party hereto shall raise the use of e-mail or other electronic
transmission to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or amendment was transmitted or communicated through the use of e-mail or other electronic transmission as a defense to the
formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense. 
 8.9. Severability. The illegality
or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or
agreement required hereunder. 

  
 25 

 8.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents,
embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and any prior
arrangements made with respect to the payment by any Grantor of (or any indemnification for) any fees, costs or expenses payable to or incurred (or to be incurred) by or on behalf of Agent or Lenders. 

8.11. Successors; Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Grantors, Lenders and Agent and their respective successors and
assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Grantors, Lenders and Agent and the successors and assigns of Lenders and Agent. No other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim
in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. No Grantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or Obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent.

EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
EACH PARTY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, U.S. FIRST CLASS POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE

INCONVENIENT FORUM. 
 8.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH GRANTOR, AGENT AND EACH LENDER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE

 8.15. Set-off. Each Grantor agrees that Agent
and each Lender have all rights of set-off and bankers’ lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, each Grantor agrees that at any time any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Agent and each Lender may apply to the payment of any Secured Obligations, whether or not then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Grantor then or thereafter with Agent or such Lender. 

8.16. Acknowledgements. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that: 

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a
party; 
 (b) it has received a fully executed copy of this Agreement; 

(c) neither Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and Agent and Lenders, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and 

(d) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby
among Lenders or among the Grantors and Lenders. 
 8.17. Additional Grantors. Each Loan Party that is required to become a party to
this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.8 and 7.14 of the Credit Agreement shall become a Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Loan Party of a joinder agreement in the form of Annex I
hereto. 
 8.18. Releases. 

(a) At such time as the Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby, and this
Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights in and
to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such termination, Agent shall deliver to the Grantors any Collateral held by Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Grantors such
documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. 
 (b) If any of the Collateral shall be sold or otherwise
disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable
for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of Borrower, a Guarantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the equity interests of such Guarantor shall be sold,
transferred, liquidated, dissolved or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement. 
 8.19. Obligations and
Liens Absolute and Unconditional. Each Grantor understands and agrees that the obligations of each Grantor under this Agreement shall be construed as continuing, absolute and unconditional without regard to (a) the validity or
enforceability of any Loan Document, any of the Secured Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by Agent or any Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or 

  
 27 

 
be asserted by any Grantor or any other Person against Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Grantor) which
constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Grantor for the Secured Obligations, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies
hereunder against any Grantor, Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any other Grantor or any other Person or against any collateral
security or guarantee for the Secured Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by Agent or any Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any other Grantor
or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any other Grantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall
not relieve any Grantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of Agent or any Lender against any Grantor. For the purposes hereof
“demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 
 8.20. Reinstatement. This Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor or any Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor or any Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for
the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s or any Issuer’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment
and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable
preference”, “fraudulent conveyance”, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations
shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
 8.21. Conflicting
Terms. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Credit Agreement, the terms of the Credit Agreement shall control.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE STOCK 
  

			
	Issuer:	  	ACER THERAPEUTICS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”)
	Number of Shares:	  	150,000 (as may be adjusted pursuant to Article 2)
	Warrant Price:	  	$2.46
	Issue Date:	  	March 4, 2022
	Expiration Date:	  	March 4, 2029

 THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, SWK Funding LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company, or its assignees (“Holder”), is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share
(“Common Stock”), set forth above (the “Shares”), at the Warrant Price per Share set forth above, as the same may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Article 2 of this Warrant (the
“Warrant Price”), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant. 
 ARTICLE 1. 

EXERCISE 
 1.1 Method of
Exercise. This Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time after the date on which the funding of the loans occurs under the Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Company, SWK, as Agent, Sole
Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, and the financial parties thereto from to time as lenders (the “Credit Agreement”) and on or before the Expiration Date set forth above. Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering the original
of this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the Company in accordance with Section 5.7 (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
designate by notice in writing to the Holder in accordance with Section 5.7). Unless Holder is exercising the cashless exercise right set forth in Section 1.2, Holder shall also deliver to the
Company a check, wire transfer (to an account designated by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to the Company in an amount equal to the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased. 

 1.2 Cashless Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in
Section 1.1, Holder may from time to time exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Shares
determined in accordance with the following equation: 
  

							
		  	X	  	=	  	 (A - B) x C

        A

		  		  		  	
	where	  		  		  	
				
		  	X	  	=	  	the number of Shares purchasable upon a “cashless exercise” of the Warrant pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.2;
				
		  	A	  	=	  	the Fair Market Value (defined below) per share of Common Stock on the date of the “cashless exercise”;
				
		  	B	  	=	  	the Warrant Price for one Share under this Warrant; and
				
		  	C	  	=	  	the number of Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to the provisions of this Article 1.

 If the foregoing calculation results in a negative number or zero, then no Shares shall be issued upon a “cashless
exercise” pursuant to this Section 1.2. If the Holder does not agree with the Fair Market Value per share ultimately determined pursuant to Section 1.3(b) or
Section 1.3(c), the Holder may, in its sole discretion (i) rescind the “cashless exercise”, (ii) pay the aggregate Warrant Price in the form of, at the Holder’s option, (1) a check payable to the
Company or (2) a wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company, or (iii) proceed with the “cashless exercise” at the Fair Market Value per Share so determined. In the event that, upon the Expiration Date or other
termination of this Warrant, the Fair Market Value of one Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 is greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date,
then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to this Section 1.2 as to all Shares (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the
Company shall promptly deliver a certificate representing the Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to Holder. 
 1.3
Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Warrant, the “Fair Market Value” of a Share as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean: 

(a) If the Common Stock is then publicly listed or quoted on one or more securities exchanges, inter-dealer quotation systems or over-the-counter markets, the fair market value of a Share shall be the closing price per share of Common Stock reported on the principal such exchange, system or market for
the business day immediately before Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company. 
 (b) If the
Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company’s charter, then the fair market value of a Share shall be equal to all
amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, assuming for the purposes of this clause (b) that all of the shares of Common Stock then
issuable upon exercise of all in-the-money options, warrants and other exercisable or convertible rights or other securities outstanding at the Determination Date. 

  
 2 

 (c) If the Common Stock is not then publicly listed or quoted on one or more securities
exchanges, inter-dealer quotation systems or over-the-counter markets, then the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) shall determine the fair
market value of a Share in its reasonable good faith judgment; provided, however, if Holder advises the Board in writing that Holder disagrees with such determination, then the Company and Holder shall promptly agree upon a reputable
investment banking firm to undertake such valuation. If the valuation of such investment banking firm results in a fair market value per Share that is more than 15% greater than that determined by the Board, then all fees and expenses of such
investment banking firm shall be paid by the Company. In all other circumstances, such fees and expenses of such investment banking firm shall be paid by Holder. 

1.4 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises this Warrant and, if applicable, the Company receives
payment of the aggregate Warrant Price, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing a warrant to purchase
the Shares not yet acquired. 
 1.5 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver a replacement Warrant. 
 1.6 Sale, Merger, or Consolidation of the
Company. For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any reorganization, consolidation, or merger of the Company where the
holders of the Company’s securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction. Upon the closing of any Acquisition, the successor entity shall assume
the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were
outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing, and the Warrant Price shall be adjusted accordingly; provided, however, that (i) in the event of an Acquisition in which the consideration to be received
by the Company’s stockholders consists solely of cash, solely of Marketable Securities (as defined below) or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities (a “Cash/Public Acquisition”), and the fair market value of one Share
as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date immediately prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, and Holder has not exercised this Warrant pursuant to
Section 1.1 above as to all Shares, then (A) this Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be cashless exercised pursuant to Section 1.2 above as to all Shares for which it has not been
previously exercised effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Cash/Public Acquisition and (B) in connection with such cashless exercise, Holder shall be deemed to have restated each of the representations and
warranties in Section 4 of the Warrant as the date thereof (which representations and warranties shall also pertain, as applicable, to the applicable 

  
 3 

 
Marketable Securities as well as the issuer thereof) and the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of the number of Shares (or such other Marketable Securities) issued upon exercise, and
(ii) in the event of a Cash/Public Acquisition where the fair market value of one Share as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such
Cash/Public Acquisition, then this Warrant will expire immediately prior to the consummation of such Cash/Public Acquisition. “Marketable Securities” means securities meeting all of the following requirements: (1) the issuer
thereof is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is then current in its filing of all required reports and other
information under the Act and the Exchange Act; (2) the class and series of shares or other security of the issuer that would be received by Holder in connection with the Acquisition were Holder to exercise this Warrant on or prior to the
closing thereof is then traded in a nationally recognized securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system or over-the-counter market, and (3) following the
closing of such Acquisition, Holder would not be restricted from publicly re-selling all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities that would be received by Holder in such Acquisition were Holder to
exercise or convert this Warrant in full on or prior to the closing of such Acquisition, except to the extent that any such restriction (x) arises solely under federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, and (y) does not extend
beyond six (6) months from the closing of such Acquisition. 
 ARTICLE 2. 

ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES. 

2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (a) pays a dividend on the Shares
payable in Common Stock, (b) subdivides the outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares, (c) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (d) issues by
reclassification of shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each such case (i) the Warrant Price will be adjusted by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which equals
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event (excluding treasury shares, if any), and the denominator of which equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event (excluding
treasury shares, if any), and (ii) the number of Shares issuable hereunder shall be concurrently adjusted by multiplying such number by the reciprocal of such fraction. Such adjustments will take effect on the effective date of such dividend,
subdivision, combination or issuance by reclassification, as the case may be. The provisions of this Section 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, combinations, substitutions,
recapitalizations and reorganizations. 
 2.2 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation
or through a 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 to be observed or performed
under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 2 and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under this
Article 2 against impairment. If the Company takes any action, a purpose of which is to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted
downward and the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted upward in such a manner that such action is offset and the aggregate Warrant Price of this Warrant is unchanged. 

  
 4 

 2.3 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the
Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional share interest by paying Holder the
amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by the Fair Market Value of a full Share. 
 2.4 Certificate as to
Adjustments. Upon any adjustment pursuant to this Article 2, including any adjustments to the Warrant Price or number of Shares that are exercisable under this Warrant, the Company shall promptly notify Holder in
writing, and, at the Company’s expense, promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. 

ARTICLE 3. 
 REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 
 3.1 Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder
as follows:

requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted.

 3.2 No Shareholder Rights; Preemptive Rights. Except as provided in this Warrant, Holder will
not have any rights as a shareholder of the Company until the exercise of this Warrant. The Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall at all times be free from preemptive rights and any other rights (or the Company shall have received a
valid waiver from all such holders of any such rights) that would prevent the exercise of this Warrant in full by the Holder. 

  
 5 

 3.3 Valid Issuance. The Company shall take all steps necessary to ensure that all
Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free of any liens and encumbrances, and issued to the Holder without violation of any applicable law
or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange or similar quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed, except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein or under applicable federal and state
securities laws. 
 3.4 Notice of Certain Events. If Company proposes at any time (a) to declare any dividend or distribution
upon its capital stock, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend; (b) to offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of any class or series of its stock any additional shares of stock
of any class or series or other rights; (c) to effect any reclassification or recapitalization of Common Stock; or (d) to consummate any Acquisition, or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up the Company, then, in connection with each such
event, the Company shall give Holder (1) in the case of the matters referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above at least 20 days prior written notice of the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription
rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in clauses (c) and (d) above; and (2) in the case of the
matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least 20 days prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock will be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for

 3.5 Information Rights. So long as Holder holds this
Warrant and/or any of the Shares, the Company shall deliver to Holder (i) promptly, copies of all notices or other written communications to which Holder would be entitled if it held Shares as to which this Warrant was then exercisable, and
(ii) within 45 days after the end of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year, the Company’s quarterly, unaudited financial statements and within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Company’s annual, audited
financial statements; provided, however, that with regard to annual meeting proxy statements and clause (ii) of this Section 3.5, it is understood and agreed that there shall be no such delivery
requirement with respect to any such proxy statements or financial statements if such documents are available on EDGAR. 
 ARTICLE 4. 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE HOLDER. 

The Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows: 

4.1 Purchase for Own Account. This Warrant and the Shares to be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant by Holder are being acquired for
investment for Holder’s account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution in violation of applicable securities laws. Holder also represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of
acquiring this Warrant or the Shares. 

  
 6 

 4.2 Disclosure of Information. Holder has received or has had full access to all the
information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to this Warrant and its underlying securities. Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company
regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Warrant and its underlying securities and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense)
necessary to verify any information furnished to Holder or to which Holder has access. 
 4.3 Investment Experience. Holder
understands that the purchase of this Warrant and its underlying securities involves substantial risk. Holder has experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Holder can bear the economic risk
of such Holder’s investment in this Warrant and its underlying securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in this Warrant and its
underlying securities and/or has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company and certain of its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables Holder to be aware of the character, business
acumen and financial circumstances of such persons. 
 4.4 Accredited Investor Status. Holder is an “accredited investor”
within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Act. 
 4.5 The Act. Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares
issuable upon exercise hereof have not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Holder’s investment intent as expressed herein.
Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issued upon any exercise hereof must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act and qualified under applicable state securities laws, or unless exemption from such
registration and qualification are otherwise available. 
 ARTICLE 5. 

MISCELLANEOUS. 
 5.1
Term. This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on and after the date on which the funding of the loans occurs under the Credit Agreement and on or before the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Warrant, if the funding of the loans under the Credit Agreement does not occur on or prior to March 14, 2022, then as of 11:59pm on such date, this Warrant shall automatically expire and be of no further force and
effect. 
 5.2 Legends. This Warrant and the Shares shall be imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: 

THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE HEREUNDER HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR

REGISTRATION. 
 5.3 Cash Dividends and Cash Distributions. Subject to the other provisions of this
Section 5.3, this Warrant shall at all times represent the Holder’s right to receive the same percentage of any cash dividends or cash distributions made by the Company that would have been received by the Holder if
Holder had fully exercised this Warrant for the full amount of the unexercised Shares immediately prior to the close of business on the day immediately preceding the record date for such dividend. To that end, if the Company at any time or from time
to time after the date hereof declares, orders, pays or makes a cash dividend or other cash distribution on or with respect to its shares of Common Stock, then, and in each such case, the Company shall reserve for, and hold for the benefit of, the
Holder, a dollar amount equal to the amount (without interest) that the Holder would have received if it had fully exercised this Warrant for the full amount of the unexercised Shares immediately prior to the close of business on the day immediately
preceding the record date for such dividend or other cash distribution, and the Holder shall be entitled to receive such amount in full upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of receiving such cash payment, at its sole discretion, the Holder may
choose to have the Warrant Price reduced by the amount of the cash, or value of the other securities or other property payable per share. 

5.4 Compliance with Securities Laws on Transfer. This Warrant and/or the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may not be
transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and the transferee, and in connection with any proposed transfer of this Warrant or the Shares to any Person other

 5.6
Transfer Procedure. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.4 and upon providing the Company with written notice, Holder may transfer all or part of this Warrant or the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant to
any transferee, provided, however, in connection with any such transfer, Holder will give the Company notice of the portion of the Warrant being transferred with the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the transferee and Holder will
surrender this Warrant to the Company for reissuance to the transferee(s) (and Holder if applicable).
