 MDRNA, Inc. 
 3830 Monte Villa Parkway 
 Bothell, WA 98021

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 The undersigned understands that MDRNA, Inc. (the “MDRNA”) proposes to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among MDRNA, Marseilles Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of MDRNA (“Merger Sub”), and Cequent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Cequent”), providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Cequent, with Cequent surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MDRNA (the
“Merger”). In connection with the Merger, MDRNA will issue shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.006 per share (“Common Stock”), to the securityholders of Cequent. Capitalized
terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement. 
 To induce
MDRNA to enter into the Merger Agreement, to consummate the Merger and to issue the Shares, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of MDRNA, it will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on
the earlier of (A) one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the Merger or (B) thirty (30) days following the closing of an equity financing by MDRNA for the issuance of shares of equity or securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of equity of MDRNA (an “Equity Financing”) which, when added together to all other Equity Financings from and after the date of execution of the Merger Agreement, results in
aggregate gross proceeds to MDRNA of at least $10 million (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Shares or any securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares, or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Shares, whether any such
transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Shares” shall also include all of the shares of Common
Stock issuable by MDRNA upon exercise of options to purchase Common Stock held by the undersigned as of the date hereof or hereafter acquired. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may transfer Shares without the prior consent of MDRNA in connection with (a) transfers of Shares or any security convertible into Shares as a bona fide
gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member; provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (a), (i) each donee or distributee shall sign and deliver a
lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter agreement and (ii) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), reporting a reduction in beneficial
ownership by the undersigned of Shares, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the Lock-up Period, (b) transfer of Shares to a charity or educational institution, (c) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited
liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Shares to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity interests in, the undersigned, as the case may be, if, in any such case, such transfer is not for value or
(d) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfer of Shares made by the undersigned (i) in connection with the sale or other bona fide transfer in a single transaction of
all or substantially all of the undersigned’s capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other similar equity interests, as the case may be, or all or substantially all of the undersigned’s assets, in any such case not
undertaken for the purpose of avoiding the restrictions imposed by this agreement, (ii) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity so long as the transferee is an affiliate of the undersigned and
such transfer is not for value, or (iii) to the beneficial owners thereof so long as such transfer is on a pro rata basis and such transfer is not for value. 
 In addition, the undersigned agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with MDRNA’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Shares except in
compliance with this agreement. 

 The undersigned shall no longer be subject to any of the foregoing restrictions in this
agreement if MDRNA has confirmed in writing to the undersigned that all the former stockholders of Cequent required to enter into similar lock-up arrangements at Closing have not executed similar agreements. Additionally, in the event that either
(i) the Closing has not taken place by August 31, 2010 or (ii) the Merger Agreement is terminated, then this agreement shall be of no further force or effect. 
 In the event a certain percentage of the securities held by the former stockholders of Cequent entering into similar lock-up arrangements at
Closing are released from the restrictions set forth in agreements similar to this agreement prior to the end of the Lock-Up Period, the same percentage of the securities held by the undersigned shall be immediately and fully released from any
remaining restrictions under this agreement concurrently therewith. In the event that the undersigned is released early pursuant to the terms of this paragraph, MDRNA shall notify the undersigned concurrently with notification to such other released
party. 
 The undersigned understands that MDRNA is relying upon this agreement in entering into and consummating the Merger.
The undersigned further understands that this agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

 March 31, 2010 
 Cequent
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 
 One Kendall Square 
 Building 700 
 Cambridge, MA 02139 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 This loan agreement (this “Agreement”) will set forth certain understandings
between MDRNA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), and Cequent Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Lender”), with respect to Term Loans (hereinafter defined) to be made by the Lender to
the Borrower. In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and in the other documents referred to below, and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower and the Lender
agree as follows: 
 I. AMOUNTS AND TERMS 
 1.1. References to Documents. Reference is made to (i) that certain $3,000,000 face principal amount promissory note (the “Term Note”) of even date herewith made by the
Borrower and payable to the order of the Lender, (ii) that certain Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty”) of even date herewith jointly and severally made by the Subsidiary Guarantors (as hereinafter defined) in favor of the
Lender, (iii) that certain Security Agreement (All Assets) (the “Security Agreement”) of even date herewith from the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor to the Lender, (iv) those certain Security Agreements (Patents),
each of even date herewith from the Borrower to the Lender and from MDRNA Research, Inc. to the Lender (each, a “Patent Security Agreement” and collectively, the “Patent Security Agreements”), and (v) those
certain Common Stock Purchase Warrants (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”), each issued to the Lender by the Borrower. 
 1.2. The Borrowing; Term Note. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Lender will make one or more loans (the “Term Loans”) to the Borrower, as the Borrower
may request, on any Business Day prior to the first to occur of (i) the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement by either party thereto, or (iii) the earlier
termination of the within-described term loan facility pursuant to §5.2 or §6.5. Each such Term Loan shall be in such amount as may be requested by the Borrower; provided that (i) no Term Loan will be made after the first to occur of

 (A) the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or (B) the
termination of the Merger Agreement by either party thereto; (ii) the aggregate original principal amounts of all Term Loans will not exceed $3,000,000; (iii) no Term Loan will be in a principal amount of less than $500,000, and
(iv) not more than $1,000,000 in aggregate original principal amounts of Term Loans may be requested by the Borrower in any consecutive thirty (30) day period. 
 To request any Term Loan hereunder, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a borrowing notice in form and substance acceptable to Lender via facsimile or electronic mail, which borrowing notice shall
set forth (i) the requested date of such Term Loan (which, with respect to the initial Term Loan, shall be a Business Day at least 15 days after the date of the corresponding borrowing notice and which, with respect to any subsequent Term Loan,
shall be a Business Day at least 5 days after the date of the corresponding borrowing notice), and (ii) the amount of the Term Loan so requested. 
 The Term Loans will be evidenced by the Term Note. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender to make or cause to be made, on a schedule attached to the Term Note or on the books of the Lender,
at or following the time of making each Term Loan and of receiving any payment of principal, an appropriate notation reflecting such transaction and the then aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Term Loans. The amount so noted shall constitute
presumptive evidence as to the amount owed by the Borrower with respect to principal of the Term Loans. Failure of the Lender to make any such notation shall not, however, affect any obligation of the Borrower or any right of the Lender hereunder or
under the Term Note. 
 1.3. Principal Repayment of Term Loans. The Borrower shall repay principal of
the Term Loans in three (3) equal consecutive monthly installments, commencing on August 15, 2010 and continuing on the fifteenth (15th) day of each month thereafter through and including October 15, 2010. Each such monthly installment of
principal shall be in an amount equal to 1/3rd of the
aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding at the close of business on August 14, 2010. In any event, the then outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Term Loans and all interest then accrued but unpaid thereon shall be due
and payable in full on October 15, 2010. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement is consummated prior to August 15, 2010, then on the date of the closing of such transaction,
the then outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans and all interest then accrued but unpaid thereon shall be forgiven in full, the Term Note shall be cancelled and each of the Loan Documents shall be terminated. The Borrower may prepay, at any
time or from time to time, without premium or penalty, the whole or any portion of any Term Loan; provided that (i) each such principal prepayment shall be accompanied by payment of all interest under the Term Note accrued but unpaid to the
date of payment, and (ii) the Borrower gives the Lender at least five (5) days’ prior written notice of its intent to so prepay. Any partial prepayment of principal of the Term Loans will be applied in inverse order of normal
maturity. Amounts repaid or prepaid with respect to the Term Loans are not available for reborrowing. 
  

 - 2 - 

 1.4. Interest on Term Loans. The Borrower will pay interest on
the principal amount of each Term Loan outstanding from time to time, from the date of the advance of such Term Loan until payment of such Term Loan and the Term Note in full and the termination of this Agreement. Interest on the Term Loans will be
payable monthly in arrears, commencing on August 15, 2010 and continuing on the fifteenth (15th) day of each month thereafter until payment of the Term Loans in full, subject to forgiveness of the Term Loans in full upon the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement
as described in §1.3 above. In any event, subject to forgiveness of the Term Loans in full upon the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement as described in §1.3 above, interest on the Term Loan shall also be
paid on the date of payment of the Term Loan in full. Interest on each Term Loan will be payable at a fixed rate of ten (10%) percent per annum; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, each Term Loan will, at the option of the Lender, bear interest at a rate per annum (the “Default Rate”) which at all times shall be equal to the sum of (i) four (4%) percent per annum plus
(ii) the per annum rate otherwise payable with respect thereto hereunder (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate from time to time permitted by then applicable law), compounded monthly and payable on demand. All interest payable under
this Agreement and/or under the Term Note will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. If the entire amount of any required principal and/or interest payment is not paid within fifteen (15) days after
the same is due, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the required payment. 
 1.5. Advances and Payments. The proceeds of all Term Loans shall be funded by the Lender to a general deposit account maintained by the Borrower at a bank in accordance with written instructions provided by the Borrower to the
Lender. The proceeds of each Term Loan will be used by the Borrower solely for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower permitted by this Agreement. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to deduct from the proceeds of
initial Term Loan, and to retain for the Lender’s benefit, the Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses related to the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents. 
 Whenever any payment to be made to the Lender hereunder or under the Term Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business
Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and interest payable on each such date shall include the amount thereof which shall accrue during the period of such extension of time. All payments by the Borrower hereunder and/or
in respect of the Term Note shall be made net of any impositions or taxes and without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, notwithstanding any claim which the Borrower may now or at any time hereafter have against the Lender. All payments of
interest, principal and any other sum payable hereunder and/or under the Term Note shall be made to the Lender, in immediately available funds, at its office at One Kendall Square, Building 700, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 or to such other
address as the Lender may from time to time direct. All payments received by the Lender after 2:00 p.m. (Boston time) on any day shall be deemed received as of the next succeeding Business Day. All monies received by the Lender shall be applied
first to fees, charges, costs and expenses payable to the Lender under this Agreement, the

  

 - 3 - 

 
Term Note and/or any of the other Loan Documents, next to interest then accrued on account of any Term Loans and only thereafter to principal of the Term Loans; provided that after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all monies received by the Lender shall be applied in such order as the Lender may determine in its sole discretion. All interest and fees payable hereunder and/or under the Term Note shall be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. 
 1.6. Conditions to Advance. Prior to
the making of the initial Term Loan, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender duly executed copies of this Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Guaranty, each Patent Security Agreement, the Term Note, a Warrant and the documents and other items
listed on the Closing Agenda delivered herewith by the Lender to the Borrower, all of which, as well as all legal matters incident to the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Lender and its counsel. On
the date the initial Term Loan is made, all statements, representations and warranties of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantors made in the Merger Agreement shall be correct in all material respects as of such date, and all covenants and
agrees of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor contained in the Merger Agreement shall have been complied with in all material respects on and as of such date. 
 Without limiting the foregoing, any Term Loan (including the initial Term Loan) is subject to the further conditions precedent that on the date on which such Term Loan is made (and after giving effect
thereto): 
 (a) All statements, representations and warranties of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantors made in this
Agreement, the Guaranty and/or in the Security Agreement shall continue to be correct in all material respects as of the date of such Term Loan. 
 (b) All covenants and agreements of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor contained herein, in the Merger Agreement and/or in any of the Loan Documents shall have been complied with in all material
respects on and as of the date of such Term Loan. 
 (c) No event which constitutes, or which with notice or lapse of time or
both could reasonably be expected to constitute, an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, which has not been cured or waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (d) No material adverse change shall have occurred in the financial condition of the Borrower from that disclosed in the financial
statements then most recently furnished to the Lender. 
 Each request by the Borrower for any Term Loan, and each acceptance by
the Borrower of the proceeds of any Term Loan, will be deemed a representation and warranty by the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor that at the date of such Term Loan and after giving effect thereto all of the conditions set forth in the
foregoing clauses (a) - (d) of this §1.6 will be satisfied. 
  

 - 4 - 

 1.7. Termination Fee. If the Borrower is required to pay the termination fee pursuant
to the terms of Section 9.02(d) of the Merger Agreement (the “Termination Fee”) and Borrower does not pay such Termination Fee when due as set forth in Section 9.02(d) of the Merger Agreement, then such Termination Fee
shall added to the outstanding principal amount of the Term Note and deemed principal thereunder, and shall bear interest from the date thereof until the date when paid at a rate per annum equal to 4% per annum plus the per annum rate otherwise
payable under the Term Note (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate permitted by then applicable law). The Termination Fee shall be an Obligation of the Borrower and shall be secured by the Security Agreement until all outstanding principal
(other than that representing the Termination Fee) and all interest accrued and unpaid under the Term Note (other than that arising on such portion of principal representing the Termination Fee), and the fees, costs and expenses of Borrower due
Lender hereunder in connection with the Term Loans, have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Upon the indefeasible payment in full in cash of such principal, interest and fees, costs and expenses, such Termination Fee shall become unsecured, and
all Liens and security interests on the Collateral securing the same shall be released upon the written request of, and at the cost and expense of, the Borrower. 
 1.8 Warrant. As consideration for the establishment of the within-described Term Loan facility, the Borrower agrees to issue to the Lender on or about the date of each Term Loan hereunder, a
Warrant to purchase shares of the Borrower’s capital stock, each such warrant to be exercisable for a number of shares of Borrower’s common stock equal to sixty-five percent (65%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan being made on
such date divided by $1.1496 (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination or the like). The obligations of the Borrower and the rights of the Lender under each Warrant will be effective
upon the issuance thereof and will (until performed in full unless the Warrant is terminated or expires in accordance with its terms) survive payment of the Term Loans and the other Obligations and termination of this Agreement. In no event may any
Warrant be exercised unless the Merger Agreement has been terminated, without the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Upon the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, all rights,
including rights of exercise, under the Warrants shall terminate and be null and void.

susceptible to legal protection developed or conceived by any such officer or key employee. 
 (m) The Borrower is not a party

 (n) The Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock
(within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no part of the proceeds of any Term Loan will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing

undisturbed possession under all leases under which it is operating, and all said leases are valid and subsisting and in full force and effect. 
 (p) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any accumulated funding deficiency within the meaning of ERISA, nor does the Borrower or any such Subsidiary have any material liability
to the PBGC in connection with any employee pension benefit plan (or other class of benefit which the PBGC has elected to insure), and there have been no “reportable events” or “prohibited transactions” with respect to any such
plan, as those terms are defined in Section 4043 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, respectively. 
 (q) The Borrower and each Subsidiary of the Borrower is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has been notified of
any action, suit, proceeding or investigation which calls into question compliance by the Borrower or any such Subsidiary with any Environmental Laws or which seeks to suspend, revoke or terminate any license, permit or approval necessary for the
generation, handling, storage, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Substances. No Environmental Event has occurred that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business or properties of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary.

able to pay its debts as they become due, (ii) will have funds and capital sufficient to carry on its business as now conducted and as intended to be conducted, (iii) owns property having a value both at fair valuation and at present fair

statement, taking such other agreements, documents, certificates or written statements as a whole, furnished to the Lender or to the Lender’s counsel by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact within the actual
knowledge, after reasonable inquiry, of any of the officers of the Borrower which has not been disclosed herein or in writing by them to the Lender and which materially adversely affects, or in the future in their opinion may, insofar as they can
now reasonably foresee, materially adversely affect the business, properties, assets or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower. 
 (u) The issuance and delivery of the shares to be issued pursuant to each Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”) when sold and paid for in accordance with the terms of each such Warrant,

  

 - 9 - 

 
will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower. The Warrant Shares have been duly and validly reserved and, when sold and paid for in accordance with the

 VI. MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1. Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay, on demand, all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
legal fees) of the Lender in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Patent Security Agreements, the Guaranty, the Term Note, each Warrant and all other instruments and documents
delivered or to be delivered in connection with any Term Loan and any amendments, waivers or modifications of any of the foregoing, as well as the costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal
counsel) incurred by the Lender in connection with preserving, enforcing or exercising, upon default, any rights or remedies under this Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Patent Security Agreements, the Guaranty, the Term Note, the Warrants and
all other instruments and documents delivered or to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, all whether or not legal action is instituted. In addition, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any and all stamp and other taxes payable or

extends to the Lender, its Subsidiaries and all of their directors, officers, employees, agents, successors, attorneys, and assigns. This indemnity will survive repayment of the Obligations. All

from the date that is 10 Business Days following the date of any demand therefor until the date when paid at a rate per annum equal to the per annum rate otherwise payable under the Term Note (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate permitted
by then applicable law). 
 6.2. Other Agreements. The provisions of this Agreement are not in derogation or limitation
of any obligations, liabilities or duties of the Borrower under any of the other Loan Documents or any other agreement with or for the benefit of the Lender. No inconsistency in default provisions between this Agreement and any of the other Loan
Documents or any such other agreement will be deemed to create any additional grace period or otherwise derogate from the express terms of each such default provision. No covenant, agreement or obligation of the Borrower contained herein, nor any
right or remedy of the Lender contained herein, shall in any respect be limited by or be deemed in limitation of any inconsistent or additional provisions contained in any of the other Loan Documents or any such other agreement. 
 6.3. Governing Law. This Agreement, the Term Note and each of the other Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed and

 6.5. Binding Effect; Assignment; Termination. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower, its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and their respective permitted successors and
assigns. The Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder without the express written consent of the Lender. The Lender may, in accordance with applicable law and without notice to or consent of the Borrower, from time to time
assign or grant participations in this Agreement, the Term Loans and/or the Term Note. The Borrower may terminate this Agreement and the financing arrangements made herein by giving written notice of such termination to the Lender provided
that no such termination will release or waive any of the Lender’s rights or remedies or any of the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents unless and until the Borrower has paid in full the Term
Loans and all interest thereon and all fees and charges payable in connection therewith. Notwithstanding any this in this §6.5 to the contrary, each Warrant shall survive termination of this Agreement and payment in full of the Term Loans and
the other Obligations in accordance with the express terms thereof. 
 6.6. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Borrower
irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Massachusetts court or any federal court sitting within The Commonwealth of Massachusetts over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Term Note
and/or any of the other Loan Documents. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court
and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Borrower agrees that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court shall be enforced in any court of proper
jurisdiction by a suit upon such judgment, provided that service of process in such action, suit or proceeding shall have been effected upon the Borrower in one of the manners specified in the following paragraph of this §6.6 or as otherwise
permitted by law. 
 The Borrower hereby consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature
referred to in the preceding paragraph of this §6.6 either (i) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address set forth in §6.4 (as such address may be
changed from time to time pursuant to said §6.4) or (ii) by serving a copy thereof upon it at its address set forth in §6.4 (as such address may be changed from time to time pursuant to said §6.4). 
  

 - 26 - 

 6.7. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the
application thereof to any Person, property or circumstances shall be held to any extent to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to Persons, properties or circumstances other than those
as to which it has been held invalid and unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 6.8. Replacement Note. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of the Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
the Term Note or of any other Loan Document which is not of public record and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Term Note or other Loan Document, the Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Term
Note or other Loan Document in the same principal amount (as to the Term Note) and in any event of like tenor. 
 6.9.
Usury. All agreements between the Borrower and the Lender are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the Term Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed
to be paid to the Lender for the use or the forbearance of the Indebtedness represented by the Term Note exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Borrower and the
Lender, in the execution, delivery and acceptance of the Term Note, to contract in strict compliance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If, under any circumstances whatsoever, performance or fulfillment of any provision of the Term
Note or the other Loan Documents at the time such provision is to be performed or fulfilled shall involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation so to be performed or fulfilled shall be reduced
automatically to the limits of such validity, and if under any circumstances whatsoever the Lender should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied
to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced by the Term Note and not to the payment of interest. The provisions of this §6.9 shall control every other provision of this Agreement and of the Term Note. 
 6.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY MUTUALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE TERM NOTE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR OUT OF ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR
ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE LENDER TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND TO MAKE THE TERM LOANS AS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN. 
 6.11. Integration; Amendments. This Agreement, the Term Note and such other Loan Documents as are delivered herewith are intended by the parties as the final, complete and exclusive statement of
the transactions evidenced by the Loan Documents. All prior or contemporaneous promises, agreements and understandings as to the facility evidenced by this

  

 - 27 - 

 
Agreement, whether oral or written, are deemed to be superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement may not be amended or modified or any provision waived except by a
written instrument setting forth such amendment, waiver or modification executed by the Borrower and the Lender.
