losing Holder’s full investment in this Note. 
 (d) Holder understands that none of the Securities have been registered under the
Securities Act or registered or qualified under any the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, are “restricted securities,” and cannot be resold or otherwise transferred unless they are registered under the 

 Securities Act, and registered or qualified under any other applicable securities laws, or an exemption from such
registration and qualification is available. Prior to any proposed transfer of any Securities, Holder shall, among other things, give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, identifying the transferee and describing
the manner of the proposed transfer and, if requested by the Company, accompanied by (i) investment representations by the transferee similar to those made by Holder in this Section 7 and (ii) an opinion of counsel satisfactory

ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW. THE SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF (I) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SHARES UNDER SUCH ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, (II) A “NO ACTION” LETTER OF THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SALE OR OFFER, OR (III) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW IS NOT REQUIRED WITH RESPECT
TO SUCH SALE OR OFFER. 
 8. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of this Note shall be used by the Company for working
capital or other general corporate purposes. 
 9. No Waiver in Certain Circumstances. No course of dealing of Holder nor any failure or delay by
Holder to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Note shall operate as a waiver hereunder and any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege shall not preclude any later exercise thereof or any exercise of any other
right, power or privilege hereunder. 
 10. Certain Waivers by the Company. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Note, the Company and every
endorser or guarantor, if any, of this Note waive presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, and assent to any extension or
postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of collateral available to Holder, if any, and to the addition or release of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable. 

11. No Unlawful Interest. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, payment of any interest or other amount hereunder shall not be required if such
payment would be unlawful. In any such event, this Note shall automatically be deemed amended so that interest charges and all other payments required hereunder, individually and in the aggregate, shall be equal to but not greater than the maximum
permitted by law. 
 12. Security Interest. The Company’s obligations under this Note are secured by a grant of a security interest to Holder in
all tangible and intangible assets of Company for which Company retains sole title as of the date of this Note (the “Collateral”). The Collateral includes all equipment, fixtures, intellectual property (including patents), cash and cash
equivalents, software, personal property, and receivables. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein all (a) leases and other contracts, (b) licenses (including to software and intellectual property), (c) the Company’s
rights under such leases, other contracts and licenses and (d) any property that is the subject of such leases, other contracts and licenses, shall not constitute Collateral pursuant to this Note. In the case Company fails to materially perform
its repayment 

 obligations under this Note, and such default is continuing (“Default”), the Holder may exercise, without
further notice, all rights and remedies under this Note or are otherwise available at law. In the case of such Default, the Holder will give the Company not less than 30 business days prior written notice of its intended disposition of the
collateral, provided, however, if Company cures such Default prior to expiration of such notice period, Default will be not deemed to have occurred and Holder shall have no rights to the Collateral. For the purpose of enforcing any and all rights
and remedies under this Agreement, the Holder may (i) require the Company to, upon Holder’s reasonable request, assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by the Holder and make it available at the Company’s headquarters,
(ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter, without breach of the peace, any premise where any such Collateral is or may be located and, reasonably seize and remove such Collateral from such premises, (iii) direct the Company to
reasonably provide relevant information from the Company’s books and records relating to the Collateral, and (iv) prior to the disposition of any of the Collateral, store or transfer the Collateral, process, repair or recondition such
Collateral or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent the Holder deems reasonably appropriate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Security Interest granted hereby is expressly limited the amount of any
unpaid Principal and accrued unpaid interest under this Note and Holder shall exercise the foregoing rights in such a fashion so as to minimize disruption to Company and its business operations and only to the extent necessary to recover such unpaid
Principal and accrued unpaid interest. The Holder and the Company shall work in good faith to effectuate the intent of the previous sentence. The security interest provided hereby shall expire upon the payment in full of all Principal and accrued
unpaid interest or the occurrence of the Conversion Date. Holder will execute any documents or instruments the Company may reasonably request to evidence such expiration. 
 13. Miscellaneous. No modification, rescission, waiver, forbearance, release or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be made, except by a written agreement duly executed by the Company and Holder. This
Note may not be assigned by Holder without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company and Holder each hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of Maryland, consents to the jurisdiction of any competent state or federal
district court sitting in the City or County of Montgomery County, Maryland, and waives any and all rights to raise lack of personal jurisdiction as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding in connection with this Note or any related matter.
Service of Process may be effectuated by Company by providing such Service to Holder by Certified Mail, and in the case such Service is undeliverable by providing such Service to the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation. This Note shall
be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Maryland, without reference to conflicts of law provisions of such state.
