Note or the Mirror Note. 
 6. Waiver. Maker hereby waives demand, presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor,

instituted in the state or federal courts located in the State of New York. 
 12. Invalidity. Any term or provision of this Note that
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or
enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or
unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, void or
unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Note to the contrary,
the rate of interest and other amounts to be paid by Maker to Holder under this Note shall not exceed the highest or the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by Holder under applicable laws. Any amounts paid by Maker to Holder in excess
of such rate shall be deemed to be partial prepayments of principal hereunder.

accepted accounting principles) before such payment becomes overdue. 
 7. Corporate Names and Location of Collateral. Borrower shall
not (a) change its name, or (b) change its jurisdiction or form of organization or extend or continue its existence in or to any other jurisdiction (other than its jurisdiction of organization at the date of this Agreement) unless, in each
case, Borrower shall provide Lender with at least ten (10) days prior written notice thereof. Lender is hereby authorized to file new U.C.C. Financing Statements describing the Collateral and otherwise in form and substance sufficient for
recordation wherever necessary or appropriate, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, to perfect or continue perfected the security interest of Lender in the Collateral. Borrower shall pay all filing and recording fees and taxes in
connection with the filing or recordation of such U.C.C. Financing Statements and shall immediately reimburse Lender therefor if Lender pays the same. Such amounts not so paid or reimbursed shall be Related Expenses.

hereunder or if the Internal Revenue Service shall allege the nonpayment or underpayment of any tax by Borrower or threaten to make any assessment in respect thereof.

and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prepare authentic invoices for all of the Accounts; (b) render to Lender, forthwith upon each request of Lender, such financial statements of Borrower’s financial condition and
operations, including but not limited to Borrower’s tax returns, and such reports of the Accounts, as Lender may from time to time request; (c) give Lender prompt written notice whenever any Account Debtor shall become in default in any
manner or assert any defense or offset and whenever any other event, omission, condition or thing having a material adverse effect on any Account shall occur or arise; and (d) forward to Lender, upon request of Lender, whenever made,
(i) invoices, sales journals or other documents satisfactory to Lender, as the case may be, that summarize the Accounts, certified by an officer of Borrower, (ii) within the time specified by Lender, an aging report of the Accounts then
outstanding setting forth, in such form and detail and with such representations and warranties as Lender may from time to time require, the unpaid balances of all invoices billed respectively during that period and during each of the three next
preceding periods, and certified by an officer of Borrower, and (iii) with respect to the Inventory and any other Collateral, such reports and other documents that are reasonably satisfactory to Lender. 
 10. Transfers, Liens and Modifications Regarding Collateral. Borrower shall not, without Lender’s prior written consent, except as set forth
on Schedule 2 hereto, (a) sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create, incur, or permit to exist any pledge, lien, mortgage, hypothecation, security interest, charge, option or any other
encumbrance with respect to any of the Collateral, or any interest therein, or Proceeds, except for the lien and security interest provided for by this Agreement and any security agreement securing only Lender; or (b) enter into or assent to
any amendment, compromise, extension, release or other modification of any kind of, or substitution for, any of the Accounts except in the ordinary course of business of Borrower. 
 11. Collateral. Borrower shall: 
 (a)
at all reasonable times (but not, except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, more than two times per fiscal year) allow Lender by or through any of Lender’s officers, agents, employees, attorneys or
accountants to (i) examine, inspect and make extracts from Borrower’s books and other records, including, without limitation, the tax returns of Borrower, (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
arrange for verification of the Accounts, under reasonable procedures, directly with Account Debtors or by other methods, and (iii) examine and inspect the Inventory and Equipment, wherever located; 
 (b) promptly furnish to Lender, upon request, (i) additional statements and information with respect to the Collateral, and all writings and
information relating to or 

  

 8 

 
evidencing any of the Accounts (including, without limitation, computer printouts or typewritten reports listing the mailing addresses of all present Account
Debtors), and (ii) any other writings and information as Lender may request; 
 (c) [reserved]; 
 (d) promptly notify Lender in writing of any information that Borrower has or may receive with respect to a material amount of the Collateral that might
reasonably be determined to materially and adversely affect the value thereof or the rights of Lender with respect thereto; 
 (e) to the
extent deemed prudent by Borrower (to be determined by Borrower acting in good faith) maintain the Equipment in good operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted, making all necessary replacements thereof so that the value and
operating efficiency thereof shall at all times be maintained and preserved; 
 (f) deliver to Lender, to hold as security for the
Obligations, within ten Business Days after the written request of Lender, all certificated Investment Property owned by Borrower, in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in
blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, or in the event such Investment Property is in the possession of a securities intermediary or credited to a securities account, execute with the related securities intermediary an
investment property control agreement over such securities account in favor of Lender in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender; 
 (g) upon request of Lender, execute and deliver with a financial institution that holds a Deposit Account in the name of Borrower, if such Deposit Account is not an Immaterial Deposit Account, a control agreement over such Deposit Account
in favor of Lender, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender; and 
 (h) upon request of Lender, promptly take such action and promptly
make, execute, and deliver all such additional and further items, deeds, assurances, instruments and any other writings as Lender may from time to time deem necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, chattel paper, to carry into effect
the intention of this Agreement or so as to completely vest in and ensure to Lender its rights hereunder and in or to the Collateral. 
 Borrower hereby
authorizes Lender to file U.C.C. Financing Statements with respect to the Collateral. If certificates of title or applications for title are issued or outstanding with respect to any of the Inventory or Equipment (valued individually in excess of
Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), Borrower shall, upon request of Lender, (i) execute and deliver to Lender a short form security agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, and (ii) deliver such certificate or
application to Lender and cause the interest of Lender to be properly noted thereon. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender or Lender’s designated agent (but without obligation by Lender to do so) to incur Related Expenses (whether prior to, upon,
or subsequent to any Event of Default), and Borrower shall promptly repay, reimburse, and indemnify Lender for any and all Related Expenses. If Borrower fails to keep and maintain the Equipment in good operating condition, ordinary wear and tear
excepted, Lender may (but shall not be required to) so maintain or repair all or any part of the Equipment and the cost thereof shall be a Related Expense. All Related Expenses are payable to Lender upon demand therefore.

 12. Collections and Receipt of Proceeds by Borrower. 
 (a) Prior to exercise by Lender of its rights under this Agreement, both (i) the lawful collection and enforcement of all of the Accounts, and
(ii) the lawful receipt and retention by Borrower of all Proceeds of all of the Accounts and Inventory shall be as the agent of Lender. 
 (b) Upon written notice to Borrower from Lender after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a Cash Collateral Account shall be opened by Borrower at a financial institution designated by Lender and all such lawful collections of the
Accounts and such Proceeds of the Accounts and Inventory shall be remitted daily by Borrower to Lender in the form in which they are received by Borrower, either by mailing or by delivering such collections and Proceeds to Lender, appropriately
endorsed for deposit in the Cash Collateral Account. In the event that such notice is given to Borrower from Lender, Borrower shall not commingle such collections or Proceeds with any of Borrower’s other funds or property, but shall hold such
collections and Proceeds separate and apart therefrom upon an express trust for Lender. In such case, Lender may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, apply all or any portion of the
account balance in the Cash Collateral Account as a credit against the Obligations. If any remittance shall be dishonored, or if, upon final payment, any claim with respect thereto shall be made against Lender on its warranties of collection, Lender
may charge the amount of such item against the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained by Borrower with Lender, and, in any event, retain the same and Borrower’s interest therein as additional security for the
Obligations. Lender may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, release funds from the Cash Collateral Account to Borrower for use in Borrower’s business. The balance in the Cash Collateral Account may be withdrawn by
Borrower upon termination of this Agreement and irrevocable payment in full of all of the Obligations. 
 (c) At Lender’s request,
Borrower shall cause all remittances representing collections and Proceeds of Collateral to be mailed to a lock box at a location acceptable to Lender, to which Lender shall have access for the processing of such items in accordance with the
provisions, terms, and conditions of Lender’s customary lock box agreement. 
 13. Collections and Receipt of Proceeds by Lender.
At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall, at all times, have the right, but not the duty, to collect and enforce any or all of the Accounts as Lender may deem advisable and, if Lender shall at
any time or times elect to do so in whole or in part, Lender shall not be liable to Borrower except for Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, if any. Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Lender, or Lender’s designated agent,
as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to exercise, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any of the following powers which, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until the complete
and full payment of all of the Obligations: 
 (a) to receive, retain, acquire, take, endorse, assign, deliver, accept and deposit, in the
name of Lender or Borrower, any and all of Borrower’s cash, instruments, chattel paper, documents, Proceeds of Accounts, Proceeds of Inventory, collection of Accounts, and any other writings relating to any of the Collateral. Borrower hereby
waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and any and all other similar notices with respect thereto, regardless of the form of any endorsement thereof. Lender shall not be bound or obligated to take any action to
preserve any rights therein against prior parties thereto; 
  

 10 

 (b) to transmit to Account Debtors, on any or all of the Accounts, notice of assignment to Lender thereof
and the security interest of Lender and to request from such Account Debtors at any time, in the name of Lender or Borrower, information concerning the Accounts and the amounts owing thereon; 
 (c) to transmit to purchasers of any or all of the Inventory, notice of the security interest of Lender and to request from such purchasers at any time,
in the name of Lender or Borrower, information concerning the Inventory and the amounts owing thereon by such purchasers; 
 (d) to notify
and require Account Debtors on the Accounts and purchasers of the Inventory to make payment of their indebtedness directly to Lender; 
 (e)
to enter into or assent to such amendment, compromise, extension, release or other modification of any kind of, or substitution for, the Accounts, or any thereof, as Lender, in its sole discretion, may deem to be advisable; 
 (f) to enforce the Accounts or any thereof, or any other Collateral, by suit or otherwise, to maintain any such suit or other proceeding in the name of
Lender or Borrower, and to withdraw any such suit or other proceeding. Borrower agrees to lend every assistance requested by Lender in respect of the foregoing, all at no cost or expense to Lender and including, without limitation, the furnishing of
such witnesses and of such records and other writings as Lender may require in connection with making legal proof of any Account. Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender in full for all court costs and attorneys’ fees and every other cost, expense
or liability, if any, incurred or paid by Lender or in connection with the foregoing, which obligation of Borrower shall constitute Obligations, shall be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest, until paid, at the Default Rate; and

 (g) to accept all collections in any form relating to the Collateral, including remittances that may reflect deductions, and to deposit
the same, into the Cash Collateral Account or, at the option of Lender, to apply them as a payment on the Obligations. 
 14.
Lender’s Authority Under Pledged Notes. For the better protection of Lender hereunder, Borrower has executed (or will execute, with respect to future Pledged Notes) an appropriate endorsement on (or separate from) each Pledged Note and
has deposited (or will deposit, with respect to future Pledged Notes) such Pledged Note with Lender. Borrower irrevocably authorizes and empowers Lender, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to (a) ask for,
demand, collect and receive all payments of principal of and 

  

 11 

 
interest on the Pledged Notes; (b) compromise and settle any dispute arising in respect of the foregoing; (c) execute and deliver vouchers,
receipts and acquittances in full discharge of the foregoing; (d) exercise, in Lender’s discretion, any right, power or privilege granted to the holder of any Pledged Note by the provisions thereof including, without limitation, the right
to demand security or to waive any default thereunder; (e) endorse Borrower’s name to each check or other writing received by Lender as a payment or other proceeds of or otherwise in connection with any Pledged Note; (f) enforce
delivery and payment of the principal and/or interest on the Pledged Notes, in each case by suit or otherwise as Lender may desire; (g) enforce the security, if any, for the Pledged Notes by instituting foreclosure proceedings, by conducting
public or other sales or otherwise, and to take all other steps as Lender, in its discretion, may deem advisable in connection with the forgoing; provided, however, that nothing contained or implied herein or elsewhere shall obligate Lender to
institute any action, suit or proceeding or to make or do any other act or thing contemplated by this Section 14 or prohibit Lender from settling, withdrawing or dismissing any action, suit or proceeding or require Lender to preserve any other
right of any kind in respect of the Pledged Notes and the security, if any, therefor. 
 15. Use of Inventory and Equipment. Until the
exercise by Lender of its rights under this Agreement, Borrower may (a) retain possession of and use the Inventory and Equipment in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this Agreement or with the terms, conditions, or provisions of any
policy of insurance thereon; (b) sell or lease the Inventory in the ordinary course of business; and (c) use and consume raw materials or supplies, the use and consumption of which are necessary in order to carry on Borrower’s
business. 
 16. Default and Remedies. 
 16.1 Any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement: (a) an Event of Default, as defined in the Note, shall occur under the Note; (b) any representation, warranty or statement
made by Borrower in or pursuant to this Agreement, any Related Writing, or any Loan Document, shall be false or erroneous in any material respect; or (c) Borrower shall fail or omit to perform or observe any agreement made by Borrower in or
pursuant to this Agreement or in any other writing received by Lender pursuant hereto, and such failure or omission to perform or observe such Agreement or other writing shall not have been fully corrected within thirty (30) days after the
earlier of (i) any financial officer of Borrower becomes aware of the occurrence thereof, or (ii) the giving of written notice thereof to Borrower by Lender that the specified failure or omission is to be remedied. 
 16.2 Lender shall at all times have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the U.C.C. and New York law as in effect from time to time, in
addition to the rights and remedies of a secured party provided elsewhere within this Agreement, in any other Related Writing executed by Borrower or otherwise provided in law or equity. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and at all times thereafter, Lender may require Borrower to assemble the Collateral, which Borrower agrees to do, and make it available to Lender at a reasonably convenient place to be designated by Lender. Lender may, with or without notice
to or demand upon Borrower and with or without the aid of legal process, make use of such force as may be necessary to enter any premises where the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be found and to take possession thereof (including anything
found in or on the Collateral that is not 

  

 12 

 
specifically described in this Agreement, each of which findings shall be considered to be an accession to and a part of the Collateral) and for that purpose
may pursue the Collateral wherever the same may be found, without liability for trespass or damage caused thereby to Borrower. After any delivery or taking of possession of the Collateral, or any thereof, pursuant to this Agreement, then, with or
without resort to Borrower or any other Person or property, all of which Borrower hereby waives, and upon such terms and in such manner as Lender may deem advisable, Lender, in its discretion, may sell, assign, transfer and deliver any of the
Collateral at any time, or from time to time. No prior notice need be given to Borrower or to any other Person in the case of any sale of Collateral that Lender determines to be perishable or to be declining speedily in value or that is customarily
sold in any recognized market, but in any other case Lender shall give Borrower no fewer than ten days prior notice of either the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or other intended
disposition thereof is to be made. Borrower waives advertisement of any such sale and (except to the extent specifically required by the preceding sentence) waives notice of any kind in respect of any such sale. At any such public sale, Lender may
purchase the Collateral, or any part thereof, free from any right of redemption, all of which rights Borrower hereby waives and releases. After deducting all Related Expenses, and after paying all claims, if any, secured by liens having precedence
over this Agreement, Lender may apply the net proceeds of each such sale to or toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and by such division as Lender, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. Any excess, to
the extent permitted by law, shall be paid to Borrower, and the obligors on the Obligations shall remain liable for any deficiency. In addition, Lender shall at all times have the right to obtain new appraisals of Borrower or the Collateral, the
cost of which shall be paid by Borrower. 
 17. Interpretation. Each right, power or privilege specified or referred to in this
Agreement is cumulative and in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, powers and privileges that Lender may otherwise have or acquire by operation of law, by contract or otherwise. No course of dealing by Lender in respect of, nor
any omission or delay by Lender in the exercise of, any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of
any other right, power or privilege, as Lender may exercise each such right, power or privilege either independently or concurrently with others and as often and in such order as Lender may deem expedient. No waiver, consent or other agreement shall
be deemed to have been made by Lender or be binding upon Lender in any case unless specifically granted by Lender in writing, and each such writing shall be strictly construed. The captions to sections herein are inserted for convenience only and
shall be ignored in interpreting the provisions of this Agreement. 
 18. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. Borrower agrees to pay on demand
all costs and expenses of Lender and all Related Expenses, including, but not limited to (a) participation, administration, travel and out-of-pocket expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees and expenses, of Lender in
connection with the preparation, negotiation and closing of the Note, Mirror Note (as defined in the Note), any Related Writing and any Loan Documents and the administration of the Loan Documents, the collection and disbursement of all funds
hereunder and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, (b) extraordinary expenses of Lender in connection with the administration of the Loan Documents and the other 

  

 13 

 
instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and (c) the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of special counsel for Lender, with respect
to the foregoing, and of local counsel, if any, who may be retained by said special counsel with respect thereto. Borrower also agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of Lender, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in
connection with the restructuring or enforcement of the Obligations, this Agreement or any Related Writing. In addition, Borrower shall pay any and all stamp, transfer, documentary and other taxes, assessments, charges and fees payable or determined
to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to hold Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or
resulting from any delay in paying or failure to pay such taxes or fees, other than those liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. All
obligations provided for in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 
 19. Indemnification. Borrower agrees to
defend, indemnify and hold harmless Lender (and its affiliates, officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Lender in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not
Lender shall be designated a party thereto) or any other claim by any Person relating to or arising out of any Loan Document or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of the Loans or any of the Obligations, or any activities of any Company or its
affiliates; provided that Lender (and its affiliates, officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees) shall not have the right to be indemnified under this Section for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction. All obligations provided for in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 
 20. Notice. All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for hereunder
shall be in writing and, if to Borrower, mailed or delivered to it, addressed to it at the address specified on the signature page of this Agreement, if to Lender, mailed or delivered to it, addressed to Alan M. Meckler, 435 East 52nd Street, Apt. 16C2, New York, New York 10022, or, as to each party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each of
the other parties. All notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications provided for hereunder shall be deemed to be given or made when delivered or two Business Days after being deposited in the mails with postage prepaid by
registered or certified mail, addressed as aforesaid, or sent by facsimile with telephonic confirmation of receipt, except that all notices hereunder shall not be effective until received. 
 21. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Borrower and Borrower’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable and exercisable by Lender for the benefit of Lender and its respective successors and assigns. 
 22.
Severability. If, at any time, one or more provisions of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in whole or in part, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby. 
  

 14 

 23. Termination. At such time as the Obligations shall have been irrevocably paid in full and the
Note terminated and not replaced by any other credit facility with Lender, Borrower shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. Upon written request of Borrower, Lender shall (a) promptly file appropriate termination statements, cancel
all control agreements and return all physically pledged Collateral, and (b) execute and deliver to Borrower all deeds, assignments, and other instruments as may be necessary or proper to release Lender’s security interest in the
Collateral and to re-vest in Borrower full title to the Collateral, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by Lender pursuant hereto. Borrower will indemnify Lender in all respects for all costs incurred by Lender in connection
with such termination. 
 24. Entire Agreement. This Agreement integrates all of the terms and conditions with respect to the
Collateral and supersedes all oral representations and negotiations and prior writings, if any, with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 25. Headings; Execution. The headings and subheadings used herein are for convenience of reference only and shall be ignored in interpreting the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature,
which, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original. 
 26. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. The
provisions of this Agreement and the respective rights and duties of Borrower and Lender hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with New York law, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Borrower hereby irrevocably
submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York state or federal court sitting in Manhattan, New York, over any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Loan Document or any Related Writing, and Borrower
hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or federal court. Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection it may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such action or proceeding in any such court as well as any right it may now or hereafter have to remove such action or proceeding, once commenced, to another court on the grounds of FORUM NON
CONVENIENS or otherwise. Borrower agrees that a final, nonappealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 

27. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, by different parties hereto in separate counterparts and by
facsimile signature, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.
