ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT
​
THIS AGREEMENT is made this 10th day of February, 2022 by and between Ministry Partners Investment Company, LLC, (“MPIC”) and Ministry Partners Securities, LLC, (“MP Securities”). For purposes of this Agreement, MPIC and MP Securities shall hereinafter and collectively be referred to as the “Parties”.
​
Recitals
​
A.MP Securities was formed and organized as a Delaware limited liability company on April 26, 2010 for the purpose of  launching a de novo broker dealer firm that will be registered as a broker dealer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and seek membership with the Financial Institutions Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).
​
B.MP Securities has requested that MPIC provide certain administrative services upon such terms and conditions as provided for in this Agreement and required by SEC Rules 15c3-1, 17a-3, 17a-4 and 17a-5.
​
C.On July 11, 2003, the SEC Division of Market Regulation (“DMR”) issued a letter (the “Letter”) concerning the application of the SEC’s financial responsibility and record keeping rules under SEC rules 15c3-1, 17a-3, 17a-4 and 17a-5 (collectively, the “Financial Responsibility Rules”) regarding expense sharing arrangements between broker dealers and third parties, including parent and affiliate companies.  The Letter addresses situations in which another party has agreed to pay expenses related to the business of the broker dealer.  The Letter’s requirements became effective when issued and the National Association of Securities Dealers (“NASD”) further addressed these issues in Notice to Members 03-63, dated October, 2003.  The purpose of this Agreement is to clarify and document the Parties’ expense sharing arrangement consistent with those requirements as set forth in the Letter and the NASD Notice to Members.
D.MPIC has requested that MP Securities accept responsibility for undertaking certain administrative and ministerial duties related to handling the conduct of its investor note program and the parties hereto wish to memorialize the terms of this arrangement.

(viii) September 1, 2022 
 Re: Amendment to Existing Warrants 

Dear Holder: 
 Reference is hereby made to the
offering on Form S-1 (File No. 333-268251) on or about the date hereof (the “Offering”) by Baudax Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) of
shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), and/or other securities of the Company (collectively, the “Securities”). 

This letter confirms that, in consideration for the Holder’s participation in the Offering and purchase of the Securities in the Offering
(the “Purchase Commitment”), the Company hereby amends, effective as of the closing of the Offering, the Existing Warrants (as defined below), by (i) reducing the Exercise Price (as defined therein) of the Existing Warrants to
$4.50 per share and (ii) amending the expiration date of the Existing Warrants to five (5) years following the date of closing of the Offering (the “Warrant Amendment”). The Warrant Amendment shall be effective upon the
closing the Offering and the satisfaction of the other terms and conditions referenced below. 
 “Existing Warrants” means,
collectively, the following existing warrants held by the Holder: 
  

	 	1.	 the existing warrants to purchase up to 7,234 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$23.92 per share issued on November 25, 2020, as amended; 

  

	 	2.	 the existing warrants to purchase up to 7,358 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$23.92 per share issued on January 25, 2021, as amended; 

  

	 	3.	 the existing warrants to purchase up to 6,013 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$23.92 per share issued on June 1, 2021, as amended; 

  

	 	4.	 the existing warrants to purchase up to 5,143 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$23.92 per share issued on December 28, 2021, as amended; 

  

	 	5.	 the existing warrants to purchase up to 48,246 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$23.92 per share issued on March 1, 2022, as amended; 

  

	 	6.	 the existing warrants to purchase up to 14,404 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$43.60 per share issued on May 19, 2022; 

	 	7.	 the existing A-1 warrants to purchase up to 142,858 shares of Common
Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $21.00 per share issued on September 1, 2022; and 

  

	 	8.	 the existing A-2 warrants to purchase up to 142,858 shares of Common
Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $21.00 per share issued on September 1, 2022. 

 The Warrant Amendment
is subject to the consummation of the Offering and the Holder’s satisfaction of the Purchase Commitment. In the event that either (i) the Offering is not consummated, or (ii) the Holder does not satisfy the Purchase Commitment, the
Warrant Amendment shall be null and void and the provisions of the Existing Warrants in effect prior to the date hereof shall remain in effect. 

Except as expressly set forth herein, the terms and provisions of the Existing Warrants shall remain in full force and effect after the
