Unless otherwise specified, all references in this Agreement or any Annex or Schedule hereto to a “Section,” “subsection,”
“Exhibit,” “Annex,” or “Schedule” shall refer to the corresponding Section, subsection, Exhibit,
Annex, or Schedule in or to this Agreement. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any accounting term used in this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents shall have the meaning customarily given such term in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations
hereunder shall be computed in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied. Unless otherwise defined herein or in the other Loan Documents,

under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right,
obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent
Person and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its
existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

 

SECTION
2. THE LOAN

 

2.1
[Reserved].

 

2.2
Term Loan Advances.

 

(a)
Tranche 1 Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Lenders shall severally (and not jointly)
make, in an amount not to exceed their respective Term Commitments, and Borrower agrees to draw, a Term Loan Advance in an aggregate
principal amount equal to Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) (the “Tranche 1 Advance”).

 

(b)
Tranche 2 Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties’
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Sections 2.2(a), 4.2 and 4.3 hereof) and the achievement of the Approval Milestone,
on or prior to the earlier of September 30, 2023 or ninety (90) days following the achievement of the Approval Milestone, Borrower may
request, and the Lenders shall severally (and not jointly) make, additional Term Loan Advances in an aggregate principal amount up to
Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000), in minimum draws of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (or if less than Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000), the remaining amount of Term Loan Advances available to be drawn pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)) (each, a “Tranche
2 Advance”); provided that Borrower shall not be permitted to request more than two (2) Tranche 2 Advances in total.

 

(c)
Tranche 3 Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties’
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Sections 2.2(a), 4.2 and 4.3 hereof) and the achievement of the Tranche 3 Milestone,
on or prior to December 15, 2023, Borrower may request, and the Lenders shall severally (and not jointly) make, no more than one (1)
additional Term Loan Advance in an aggregate principal amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (the “Tranche 3 Advance”).

 

    	21

     

    

 

(d)
Tranche 4 Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties’
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Sections 2.2(a), 4.2 and 4.3 hereof) and the achievement of the Performance Milestone,
on or prior to the earlier of December 15, 2024 or ninety (90) days following the achievement of the Performance Milestone, Borrower
may request, and the Lenders shall severally (and not jointly) make, additional Term Loan Advances in an aggregate principal amount up
to Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000) less the aggregate principal amount of the funded Tranche 3 Advance, in minimum draws
of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (or if less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), the remaining amount of Term Loan Advances
available to be drawn pursuant to this Section 2.2(d)) (each, a “Tranche 4 Advance”); provided that Borrower shall not be
permitted to request more than two (2) Tranche 4 Advances in total.

 

(e)
Tranche 5 Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and conditioned on approval by the Lenders’ respective
investment committees in their sole and unfettered discretion, prior to the Amortization Date, Borrower may request, and the Lenders
shall severally (and not jointly) make, additional Term Loan Advances in an aggregate principal amount of up to Twenty-Five Million Dollars
($25,000,000), in minimum draws of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (or if less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), the
remaining amount of Term Loan Advances available to be drawn pursuant to this Section 2.2(e)) (each, a “Tranche 5 Advance”);
provided that Borrower shall not be permitted to request more than two (2) Tranche 5 Advances in total.

 

The
aggregate outstanding Term Loan Advances shall not exceed the Maximum Term Loan Amount. Each Term Loan Advance of each Lender shall not
exceed its respective Term Commitment.

 

(f)
Advance Request. To obtain a Term Loan Advance, Borrower shall complete, sign and deliver an Advance Request (at least one (1) Business
Day before the Closing Date and at least five (5) Business Days before each Advance Date other than the Closing Date to Agent. The Lenders
shall fund the Term Loan Advance in the manner requested by the Advance Request provided that each of the conditions precedent to such
Term Loan Advance set forth in Section 4 is satisfied as of the requested Advance Date.

 

(g)
Interest.

 

(i)
Term Loan Interest Rate. The principal balance of each Term Loan Advance shall bear interest thereon from such Advance Date in an amount
equal to the product of the outstanding Term Loan principal balance multiplied by the Term Loan Interest Rate based on a year consisting
of 360 days, with interest computed daily based on the actual number of days elapsed. The Term Loan Interest Rate will float and change
on the day the prime rate changes from time to time.

 

    	22

     

    

 

(h)
Payment. Borrower will pay interest on each Term Loan Advance on the first Business Day of each month, beginning the month after the
Advance Date. Borrower shall repay the aggregate Term Loan principal balance that is outstanding on the day immediately preceding the
Amortization Date, in equal monthly installments of principal and interest (mortgage style) beginning on the Amortization Date and continuing
on the first Business Day of each month thereafter until the Secured Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid.
The entire Term Loan principal balance and all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder, shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity
Date. Borrower shall make all payments under this Agreement without setoff, recoupment or deduction and regardless of any counterclaim
or defense. If a payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately
preceding Business Day. Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, will initiate debit entries to Borrower’s account as authorized
on the ACH Authorization (i) on each payment date of all periodic obligations payable to the Lenders under each Term Loan Advance and
(ii) reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and costs incurred by Agent or the Lenders in connection with Section 11.12 of
this Agreement; provided that, with respect to clause (i) above, in the event that Agent informs Borrower that Agent will not initiate
a debit entry to Borrower’s account for a certain amount of the periodic obligations due on a specific payment date, Borrower shall
pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, such amount of periodic obligations in full in immediately available funds on such
payment date; provided, further, that, with respect to clause (i) above, if Agent informs Borrower that Agent will not initiate a debit
entry as described above later than the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to such payment date, Borrower shall pay to Agent,
for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, such amount of periodic obligations in full in immediately available funds on the date that is
three (3) Business Days after the date on which Agent notifies Borrower thereof; provided, further, that, with respect to clause (ii)
above, in the event that Agent informs Borrower that Agent will not initiate a debit entry to Borrower’s account for certain amounts
of such out-of-pocket legal fees and costs incurred by Agent or the Lenders, Borrower shall pay to Agent such amounts in full in immediately
available funds within three (3) Business Days.

 

2.3
Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to
contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (which under the laws of the State of California shall be deemed to be the laws relating to
permissible rates of interest on commercial loans) (the “Maximum Rate”). If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally
determine that Borrower has actually paid to the Lenders an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have been payable if
all of the Secured Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid by Borrower
shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of the Secured Obligations consisting of the outstanding principal; second, after
all principal is repaid, to the payment of the Lenders’ accrued interest, costs, expenses, professional fees and any other Secured
Obligations; and third, after all Secured Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrower.

 

2.4
Default Interest. In the event any payment is not paid on the scheduled payment date, an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the past
due amount shall be payable on demand. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder,
all Secured Obligations, including principal, interest, compounded interest, and professional fees, shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the rate set forth in Section 2.2(f), plus four percent (4%) per annum. In the event any interest is not paid when due
hereunder, delinquent interest shall be added to principal and shall bear interest on interest, compounded at the rate set forth in Section
2.2(f) or this Section 2.4, as applicable.

 

    	23

     

    

 

2.5
Prepayment. At its option upon at least seven (7) Business Days’ prior written notice (which such notice may be conditioned upon
the consummation of a transaction constituting a Change in Control or a refinancing of the Loans) to Agent, Borrower may at any time
prepay all or a portion (such portion not to be less than $5,000,000 or increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) of the outstanding
Advances by paying the entire principal balance (or such portion thereof), all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with a prepayment
charge equal to the following percentage of the principal amount of the Advance being prepaid: with respect to each Advance, if the principal
amount of such Advance is prepaid in any of the first twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, two percent (2.0%); after twelve
(12) months but on or prior to twenty four (24) months, one point five percent (1.5%); and thereafter until the date that is thirty (30)
days prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, one percent (1.0%) (each, a “Prepayment Charge”). If at any time Borrower elects
to make a prepayment, and at such time, there are outstanding Advances under multiple Tranches, the Prepayment Charge shall be determined
by applying the amount of such prepayment in the following order: first, to the outstanding principal amount (and accrued but unpaid
interest thereon) of Advances outstanding under the Tranche with the latest initial funding date; second, to the outstanding principal
amount (and accrued but unpaid interest thereon) of Advances outstanding under the Tranche with the next latest initial funding date
and so on until the entire principal balance of all Advances made hereunder (and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon) is paid in
full. Borrower agrees that the Prepayment Charge is a reasonable calculation of the Lenders’ lost profits in view of the difficulties
and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an early repayment of the Advances. Borrower shall prepay the outstanding
amount of all principal and accrued interest through the prepayment date and the Prepayment Charge upon any prepayment hereunder. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Agent and the Lenders agree to waive the Prepayment Charge if Agent and the Lenders (in their sole and absolute discretion)
or their respective Affiliates (1) agree in writing to refinance the Advances prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date or (2) otherwise agree
in writing to waive such Prepayment Charge upon the request of the Borrower. Any amounts paid under this Section shall be applied by
Agent to the then unpaid amount of any Secured Obligations (including principal and interest) in such order and priority as Agent may
choose in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, if a payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business
Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

2.6
End of Term Charge.

 

(a)
On any date that Borrower partially prepays the outstanding Secured Obligations pursuant to Section 2.5 (other than, for the avoidance
of doubt, any partial prepayment that would result in all remaining outstanding Secured Obligations being prepaid in full), Borrower
shall pay the Lenders a charge of equal to six point six percent (6.60%) of the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan Advances
being prepaid.

 

(b)
On the earliest to occur of (i) the Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the date that Borrower prepays in full the outstanding Secured Obligations
(other than any inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this
Agreement), or (iii) the date that the Secured Obligations become due and payable (including by acceleration of the Secured Obligations
during an Event of Default) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay the Lenders a charge equal to (i) six point six
percent (6.60%) of the aggregate original principal amount of the Term Loan Advances made hereunder minus (ii) the aggregate amount
of payments made pursuant to Section 2.6(a) (collectively, with any charge required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.6(a), the “End
of Term Charge”).

 

(c)
Notwithstanding the required payment date of such End of Term Charge, the applicable pro rata portion of the End of Term Charge shall
be deemed earned by the Lenders as of each date a Term Loan Advance is made. For the avoidance of doubt, if a payment hereunder becomes
due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

    	24

     

    

 

2.7
Pro Rata Treatment. Each payment (including prepayment) on account of any fee and any reduction of the Term Loans shall be made pro rata
according to the Term Commitments of the relevant Lenders.

 

2.8
Taxes; Increased Costs. Borrower, Agent and the Lenders each hereby agree to the terms and conditions set forth on Addendum 1 attached
hereto. The Loan Parties and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Warrants and the Term Loans shall be treated as part of an “investment
unit” as defined in Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code. None of the parties will, except as required by Applicable Law, file any tax
return on a basis inconsistent with, or take any position in any tax audit or other proceeding inconsistent with, such treatment or allocation
described in this Section 2.8.

 

2.9
Treatment of Prepayment Charge and End of Term Charge. Borrower agrees that any Prepayment Charge and any End of Term Charge payable
shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early termination, and Borrower agrees that
it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing and existing as of the Closing Date. The Prepayment Charge and the End of
Term Charge shall also be payable in the event the Secured Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure
(whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by any other means. Each Loan Party expressly waives (to the
fullest extent it may lawfully do so) the provisions of any present or future statute or law that prohibits or may prohibit the collection
of the foregoing Prepayment Charge and End of Term Charge in connection with any such acceleration. Borrower agrees (to the fullest extent
that each may lawfully do so): (a) each of the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s
length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (b) each of the Prepayment Charge and the End
of Term Charge shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (c) there has been a course
of conduct between the Lenders and Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment
Charge and the End of Term Charge as a charge (and not interest) in the event of prepayment or acceleration; and (d) Borrower shall be
estopped from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay each
of the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge to the Lenders as herein described was on the Closing Date and continues to be a
material inducement to the Lenders to provide the Term Loans.

 

SECTION
3. SECURITY INTEREST

 

3.1
Grant of Security Interest. As security for the prompt and complete payment when due (whether on the payment dates or otherwise) of all
the Secured Obligations, Borrower grants to Agent a security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in, to and
under all of Borrower’s personal property and other assets including without limitation the following (except as set forth herein)
whether now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Collateral”): (a) Receivables; (b) Equipment; (c) Fixtures; (d)
General Intangibles (other than Intellectual Property); (e) Inventory; (f) Investment Property; (g) Deposit Accounts; (h) Cash; (i) Goods;
and all other tangible and intangible personal property of Borrower (other than Intellectual Property) whether now or hereafter owned
or existing, leased, consigned by or to, or acquired by, Borrower and wherever located, and any of Borrower’s property in the possession
or under the control of Agent; and, to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds of each of the foregoing and all accessions to,
substitutions and replacements for, and rents, profits and products of each of the foregoing; provided, however, that the Collateral
shall include all Accounts and General Intangibles that consist of rights to payment and proceeds from the sale, licensing or disposition
of all or any part, or rights in, the Intellectual Property (the “Rights to Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
a judicial authority (including a U.S. Bankruptcy Court) holds that a security interest in the underlying Intellectual Property is necessary
to have a security interest in the Rights to Payment, then the Collateral shall automatically, and effective as of the date of this Agreement,
include the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Rights to Payment.

 

    	25

     

    

 

3.2
Excluded Collateral. Notwithstanding the broad grant of the security interest set forth in Section 3.1, above, the Collateral shall not
include (the following, collectively, “Excluded Assets”) (a) subject to the last sentence of Section 3.1, any Intellectual
Property, (b) nonassignable licenses or contracts, including without limitation any licenses described in clause (b) of the defined term
“Permitted Transfers”, which by their terms require the consent of the licensor thereof or another party (but only to the
extent such prohibition on transfer is enforceable under applicable law, including, without limitation, Sections 9406, 9407 and 9408
of the UCC); provided further, that upon the termination of such prohibition or such consent being provided with respect to any license
or contract, such license or contract shall automatically be included in the Collateral, (c) more than 65% of the presently existing
and hereafter arising issued and outstanding Equity Interests (including for this purpose indebtedness treated as equity for U.S. federal
income tax purposes) owned by Borrower of any Foreign Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary Holding Company which Equity Interests entitle
the holder thereof to vote for directors or any other matter, (d) any Excluded Account, (e) any property, right or asset held by any
Loan Party to the extent that a grant of a security interest therein is prohibited by applicable law, (f) the assets of any non-wholly
owned subsidiary pursuant to customary restrictions and conditions contained in agreements governing joint ventures or strategic alliances
that constitute Permitted Investments, provided that the applicable Loan Party has exercised its good faith best efforts to not agree
to (or to remove) such customary restrictions and conditions, (g) interests in joint ventures that constitute Permitted Investments pursuant
to customary restrictions and conditions contained in agreements governing such joint ventures, (h) margin stock, (i) motor vehicles
and (j) commercial tort claims that, in the reasonable determination of the Borrower, are not expected to result in a judgment in excess
of $150,000.

SECTION
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BORROWER

 

Borrower
represents and warrants that:

 

5.1
Organizational Status. Each Loan Party is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership, as applicable, duly organized, legally
existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited
liability company or partnership, as the case may be, in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its business or location of its properties
require such qualifications and where the failure to be qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each
Loan Party’s present name, former names (if any), locations, place of formation, tax identification number, organizational identification
number and other information are correctly set forth in Exhibit B, as may be updated by Borrower in a written notice (including any Compliance
Certificate) provided to Agent after the Closing Date in accordance with this Agreement (including in any Compliance Certificate).

 

    	28

     

    

 

5.2
Collateral. Each Loan Party owns the Collateral and the Intellectual Property, free of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens. Each Loan
Party has the power and authority to grant to Agent a Lien in the Collateral as security for the Secured Obligations. 

 

5.3
Consents. Each Loan Party’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents to which it is party,
and Borrower’s execution of the Warrants, (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action in accordance with such Loan Party’s
Organizational Documents and applicable law, (ii) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon the Collateral, other
than Permitted Liens, (iii) do not violate (A) any provisions of such Loan Party’s Organizational Documents, or (B) any, law, regulation,
order, injunction, judgment, decree or writ to which Borrower is subject, and (iv) except as described on Schedule 5.3, do not violate
in any material respect any contract or agreement or require the consent or approval of any other Person which has not already been obtained.
The individual or individuals executing the Loan Documents on behalf of each Loan Party and the Warrant on behalf of Borrower are duly
authorized to do so.

 

5.4
Material Adverse Effect. No event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred and is
continuing, and no Loan Party is aware of any event or circumstance likely to occur that is reasonably expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

5.5
Actions Before Governmental Authorities. There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any governmental
authority now pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened in writing against or affecting a Loan Party or its property,
that is reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.6
Laws.

 

(a)
Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any law, rule or regulation, or in default with respect to any judgment,
writ, injunction or decree of any governmental authority, where such violation or default is reasonably expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. Borrower is not in default under any provision of any (i) agreement or instrument evidencing material Indebtedness or
any other Material Agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or (ii) any other agreement to which default is reasonably
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)
Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged as one of
its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors).
Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Neither Borrower

distribution or sale of the Products, and is owned or co-owned by or exclusively or non-exclusively licensed to Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Current Company IP”), including its name/title, current owner or co-owners (including ownership
interest), registration, patent or application number, and registration or application date, issued or filed in the United States of
America, is set forth on Schedule 5.10(a) (as such schedule may be supplemented by any Compliance Certificate; provided that such disclosure
made in such Compliance Certificate shall not cure any default arising from any false or misleading misrepresentations and warranties
when made or when deemed made). Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10(a) (as such schedule may be supplemented by any Compliance Certificate;
provided that such disclosure made in such Compliance Certificate shall not cure any default arising from any false or misleading misrepresentations
and warranties when made or when deemed made), (i) (A) each item of owned Current Company IP is valid, subsisting and (other than with
respect to Patent applications) enforceable and no such item of Current Company IP has lapsed, expired, been cancelled or invalidated

such item of Current Company IP. To the knowledge of any Loan Party, there are no published Patents, Patent applications, articles or
prior art references that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the exploitation of the Products. Except as set
forth on Schedule 5.10(a), (as such schedule may be supplemented by any Compliance Certificate; provided that such disclosure made in
such Compliance Certificate shall not cure any default arising from any false or misleading misrepresentations and warranties when made
or when deemed made) (x) each Person who has or has had any rights in or to owned Current Company IP or any trade secrets owned by Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries, including each inventor named on the Patents within such owned Current Company IP filed by Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries, and has executed an agreement assigning his, her or its entire right, title and interest in and to such owned Current
Company IP and such trade secrets, and the inventions, improvements, discoveries, writings, works of authorship, information and other
intellectual property embodied, described or claimed therein, to the stated owner thereof, and (y) no such Person has any contractual
or other obligation that would preclude or conflict with such assignment or the exploitation of the Products or entitle such Person to
ongoing payments.

 

    	31

     

    

 

(b)

or any of its Subsidiaries, nor have any applications or registrations therefor lapsed or become abandoned, been canceled or expired.

 

(d)
There are no unpaid fees or royalties under any Material Agreements that have become due, or are expected to become overdue. Each Material
Agreement is in full force and effect and is legal, valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its respective terms, except as
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights
generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10(d), neither Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries, as applicable, is in breach of or default in any manner that could reasonably be expected to materially affect the
Products under any Material Agreement to which it is a party or may otherwise be bound, and to the knowledge of Borrower, no circumstances
or grounds exists that would give rise to a claim of breach or right of rescission, termination, non-renewal, revision or amendment of
any of the Material Agreements, including the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

(e)
No payments by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries are due to any other Person in respect of the Current Company IP, other than pursuant
to the Material Agreements and those fees payable to patent offices in connection with the prosecution and maintenance of the Current
Company IP, any applicable taxes and associated attorney fees.

 

(f)
Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has undertaken or omitted to undertake any acts, and to the knowledge of Borrower, no circumstance
or grounds exist that would invalidate or reduce, in whole or in part, the enforceability or scope of (i) the Current Company IP in any
manner that could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the Products, or (ii) in the case of Current Company IP owned
or co-owned or exclusively or non-exclusively licensed by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except as set forth on Schedule 5.10(f),

made in such Compliance Certificate shall not cure any default arising from any false or misleading misrepresentations and warranties
when made or when deemed made) there are no pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened claims against Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries alleging (i) that any research, development, manufacture, production, use, commercialization, marketing, importing,
storage, transport, offer for sale, distribution or sale of the Products in the United States of America infringes or violates (or in
the past infringed or violated) the rights of any third parties in or to any Intellectual Property (“Third Party IP”) or
constitutes a misappropriation of (or in the past constituted a misappropriation of) any Third Party IP, or (ii) that any Current Company
IP is invalid or unenforceable.

 

(j)
Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10(j), the manufacture, production, use, commercialization, marketing, importing, storage, transport,
offer for sale, distribution or sale of the Products does not, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, infringe or violate (or in the past
infringed or violated) any issued or registered Third Party IP (including any issued Patent within the Third Party IP) or constitute
a misappropriation of (or in the past constituted a misappropriation of) any Third Party IP.

 

(k)

importing, storage, transport, offer for sale, distribution or sale of the Products.

 

(n)
Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10(n), at the time of any shipment of Products in the United States of America occurring prior to the
Closing Date, the units thereof so shipped complied with their relevant specifications and were manufactured in all material respects
in accordance with the then-current specifications and FDA Good Manufacturing Practices.

 

(o)
Except as described on Schedule 5.10(o), each Loan Party has all material rights with respect to Intellectual Property necessary or material
in the operation or conduct of such Loan Party’s business as currently conducted and proposed to be conducted by such Loan Party.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and in the case of Licenses, except for restrictions that are unenforceable under Division
9 of the UCC, each Loan Party has the right, to the extent required to operate such Loan Party’s business, to freely transfer,
license or assign Intellectual Property owned by such Loan Party and necessary or material in the operation or conduct of such Loan Party’s
business as currently conducted and proposed to be conducted by such Loan Party, without condition, restriction or payment of any kind
(other than license payments in the ordinary course of business) to any third party. Each Loan Party owns or has the right to use, pursuant
to valid licenses, all software development tools, library functions, compilers and all other third-party software and other items that
are material to such Loan Party’s business and used in the design, development, promotion, sale, license, manufacture, import,
export, use or distribution of Products except customary covenants in inbound license agreements and equipment leases where such Loan
Party is the licensee or lessee. No Loan Party is a party to, nor is it bound by, any Restricted License other than as set forth on Schedule
5.15 hereto.

 

(p)
No material software or other materials used by any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries (or used in any Products) are subject to
an open-source or similar license (including but not limited to the General Public License, Lesser General Public License, Mozilla Public
License, or Affero License) in a manner that would cause such software or other materials to have to be (i) distributed to third parties
at no charge or a minimal charge (royalty-free basis); (ii) licensed to third parties to modify, make derivative works based on, decompile,
disassemble, or reverse engineer; or (iii) used in a manner that requires disclosure or distribution in source code form.

 

5.11

any actual or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened litigation, proceeding (including any proceeding in the United States Patent
and Trademark Office or any corresponding foreign office or agency) or outstanding decree, order, judgment, settlement agreement or stipulation
that restricts in any manner any Loan Party’s use, transfer or licensing thereof or that may affect the validity, use or enforceability
thereof. There is no decree, order, judgment, agreement, stipulation, arbitral award or other provision entered into in connection with
any litigation or proceeding that obligates any Loan Party to grant licenses or ownership interest in any future Intellectual Property
related to the operation or conduct of the business of any Loan Party or Products. No Loan Party has received any written notice or claim,
or, to the knowledge of such Loan Party, oral notice or claim, challenging or questioning any Loan Party’s ownership in any Intellectual
Property (or written notice of any claim challenging or questioning the ownership in any licensed Intellectual Property of the owner
thereof) or suggesting that any third party has any claim of legal or beneficial ownership with respect thereto nor, to any Loan Party’s
knowledge, is there a reasonable basis for any such claim. Neither any Loan Party’s use of its Intellectual Property nor the production
and sale of Products infringes the Intellectual Property or other rights of others.

to which a Loan Party contributes that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (“Qualified Plan Loans”)),
, no Loan Party has outstanding loans to any employee, officer or director of such Loan Party nor has any Loan Party guaranteed the payment
of any loan made to an employee, officer or director of such Loan Party by a third party.

 

5.14
Capitalization and Subsidiaries. Other than PRVB, each Loan Party’s capitalization as of the Closing Date is set forth on Schedule

shall be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual and matured liability.

 

SECTION
6. INSURANCE; INDEMNIFICATION

 

6.1
Coverage. Borrower shall cause to be carried and maintained commercial general liability insurance covering Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries, on an occurrence form, against risks customarily insured against in Borrower’s line of business. Such risks shall
include the risks of bodily injury, including death, property damage, personal injury, advertising injury, and contractual liability
per the terms of the indemnification agreement found in Section 6.3. Borrower must maintain a minimum of $2,000,000 of commercial general
liability insurance for each occurrence (for the avoidance of doubt, coverage may be provided through a combination of primary and umbrella/excess
liability coverage). Borrower has and agrees to maintain a minimum of $2,000,000 of directors’ and officers’ insurance for
each occurrence and $5,000,000 in the aggregate. So long as there are any Secured Obligations outstanding, Borrower shall also cause
to be carried and maintained insurance upon the Collateral, insuring against all risks of physical loss or damage howsoever caused, in
an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Collateral, provided that such insurance may be subject to standard exceptions
and deductibles. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by this Section 6.1 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails
to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which may be required to
preserve the Collateral, Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Agent are immediately due and
payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Secured Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Agent will make
reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Agent obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable
time thereafter. No payments by Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Agent’s waiver of any Event
of Default.

 

    	35

     

    

 

6.2
Certificates. Borrower shall deliver to Agent certificates of insurance that evidence compliance with its insurance obligations in Section
6.1 and the obligations contained in this Section 6.2. Borrower’s insurance certificate shall reflect Agent (shown as “Hercules
Capital, Inc., as Agent”, and its successors and/or assigns) as an additional insured for commercial general liability, a lenders
loss payable for all risk property damage insurance, subject to the insurer’s approval, and a lenders loss payable for property
insurance and additional insured for liability insurance for any future insurance that Borrower may acquire from such insurer. Subject
to Section 4.4, attached to the certificates of insurance will be additional insured endorsements for liability and lender’s loss
payable endorsements for all risk property damage insurance. All certificates of insurance will provide for a minimum of thirty (30)
days’ advance written notice to Agent of cancellation (other than cancellation for non-payment of premiums, for which ten (10)
days’ advance written notice shall be sufficient) or any other change adverse to Agent’s interests. Any failure of Agent
to scrutinize such insurance certificates for compliance is not a waiver of any of Agent’s rights, all of which are reserved. Borrower
shall provide Agent with copies of each insurance policy, and upon entering or amending any insurance policy required hereunder, Borrower
shall provide Agent with copies of such policies and shall promptly deliver to Agent updated insurance certificates with respect to such
policies.

 

6.3
Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Agent, the Lenders and their officers, directors, employees, agents, in-house attorneys,
representatives and shareholders (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses,
damages and liabilities (including such claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities based on liability in tort, including strict
liability in tort), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense (including
those incurred upon any appeal) (collectively, “Liabilities”), that may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by
such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents or the administration of such credit, or in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder,
or any actions or failures to act in connection therewith, or arising out of the disposition or utilization of the Collateral, excluding
in all cases Liabilities to the extent resulting solely from any Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This
Section 6.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any
non-Tax claim. In no event shall any Indemnified Person be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential
or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). This Section 6.3 shall survive the repayment of
indebtedness under, and otherwise shall survive the expiration or other termination of, this Agreement.

7.2
Inspection Rights. Borrower shall permit any representative that Agent authorizes, including its attorneys and accountants, to inspect

reasonable notice during normal business hours; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
such examinations shall be limited to no more often than once per fiscal year. In addition, any such representative shall have the right

business operations. The parties intend that the rights granted to Hercules shall constitute “management rights” within the

and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (iv) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security
interest, or other claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge
the same; (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Agent or a third party as the UCC permits; (vi) receive, open and dispose of mail
addressed to Borrower; (vii) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks, payment instruments, or other forms of payment or security;
and (viii) notify all account debtors to pay Agent directly. Borrower hereby appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s
name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless
of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Secured Obligations have been satisfied in full (other than any inchoate indemnity
obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) and the Loan Documents
have been terminated. Agent’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Agent’s rights and powers,
coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Secured Obligations have been satisfied in full (other than any inchoate indemnity
obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) and the Loan Documents
have been terminated. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default, Agent may, and at the direction of the
Required Lenders shall, exercise all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents or otherwise available
to it under the UCC and other applicable law, including the right to release, hold, sell, lease, liquidate, collect, realize upon, or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral and the right to occupy, utilize, process and commingle the Collateral. All Agent’s
rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

10.2
Collection; Foreclosure. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Agent may, and at the direction of the
Required Lenders shall, at any time or from time to time, apply, collect, liquidate, sell in one or more sales, lease or otherwise dispose
of, any or all of the Collateral, in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, in such order
as Agent may elect. Any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at its place of business or elsewhere. Borrower agrees
that any such public or private sale may occur upon ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice to Borrower. Agent may require
Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at a place designated by Agent that is reasonably convenient to Agent
and Borrower. The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by Agent
in the following order of priorities:

 

First,
to Agent and the Lenders in an amount sufficient to pay in full Agent’s and the Lenders’ reasonable costs and professionals’
and advisors’ fees and expenses as described in Section 11.12;

 

Second,
to the Lenders, ratably, in an amount equal to the then unpaid amount of the Secured Obligations (including principal and interest, including,
for the avoidance of doubt, any interest required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.4), in such order and priority as Agent may choose
in its sole discretion; and

 

Finally,
after the full and final payment in Cash of all of the Secured Obligations (other than inchoate obligations), to any creditor holding
a junior Lien on the Collateral, or to Borrower or its representatives or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

 

Agent
shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and disposition of any of the Collateral if it complies with the
obligations of a secured party under the UCC.

 

10.3
No Waiver. Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral for the benefit of Borrower or any other Person, and Borrower
expressly waives all rights, if any, to require Agent to marshal any Collateral.

 

10.4
Cumulative Remedies. The rights, powers and remedies of Agent hereunder shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given
by statute or rule of law and are cumulative. The exercise of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies provided herein shall
not be construed as a waiver of or election of remedies with respect to any other rights, powers and remedies of Agent.

11.3
Entire Agreement; Amendments.

 

(a)
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the
subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede and replace in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, non-disclosure or confidentiality
agreements, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof
or thereof (including the Agent’s proposal letter dated August 10, 2022 and the Non-Disclosure Agreement).

 

(b)
Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 11.3(b); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the other Loan Documents shall be
supplemented by the terms of the Side Letter. The Required Lenders and the Loan Parties party to the relevant Loan Document may, or,
with the written consent of the Required Lenders, Agent and the Loan Parties party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time,
(i) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any
provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder
or thereunder or (ii) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument,
any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided,
however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (A) forgive the principal amount or extend the final
scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the
stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, in each case without the written
consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (B) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 11.3(b)
without the written consent of such Lender; (C) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the
assignment or transfer by the Loan Parties of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release
all or substantially all of the Collateral or release a Loan Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents, in each case without
the written consent of all Lenders; or (D) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11.18 or Addendum 3 without the written consent
of Agent. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding
upon the applicable Loan Parties, the Lenders, Agent and all future holders of the Loans.

 

11.4
No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event
an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto
and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of
this Agreement.

 

    	50

     

    

 

11.5
No Waiver. The powers conferred upon Agent and the Lenders by this Agreement are solely to protect their rights hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents and its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or the Lenders to exercise any such
powers. No omission or delay by Agent or the Lenders at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to them, or to require performance
of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by Borrower at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any such right or remedy
to which Agent or the Lenders is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of Agent or the Lenders to enforce such provisions
thereafter.

 

11.6
Survival. All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in any document
delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall be for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders and shall survive the execution and delivery of
this Agreement. Sections 6.3, 11.9, 11.10, 11.11, 11.15 and 11.18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

11.7
Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on
Borrower and its permitted assigns (if any). No Loan Party shall assign its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents without Agent’s express prior written consent, and any such attempted assignment shall be void and of no effect. Agent
and the Lenders may assign, transfer, or endorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with no obligation to provide
notice to Borrower, and all of such rights shall inure to the benefit of Agent’s and the Lenders’ successors and assigns;
provided that (i) as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, neither Agent nor any Lender may assign, transfer or
endorse its rights hereunder or under the Loan Documents to any party that is a direct competitor of Borrower (as identified in writing
by Borrower to Agent as of the Closing Date and as may be identified in writing from time to time after the Closing Date by Borrower
to Agent with the Agent’s written consent), it being acknowledged that in all cases, any transfer to an Affiliate of any Lender
or Agent shall be allowed and (ii) in the case of an assignment to any Person other than an Affiliate of Hercules Capital, Inc., Agent
shall use reasonable efforts to provide prior or concurrent written notice to Borrower of such assignment (but, for the avoidance of
doubt, such assignments may be made without such prior notice to Borrower and the absence of such notice shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of such assignment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) in connection with any assignment by a Lender as a result of
a forced divestiture at the request of any regulatory agency, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply and Agent and the Lenders
may assign, transfer or indorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to any Person or party and (y) in connection
with a Lender’s own financing or securitization transactions, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply and Agent and the
Lenders may assign, transfer or indorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to any Person or party providing such
financing or formed to undertake such securitization transaction and any transferee of such Person or party upon the occurrence of a
default, event of default or similar occurrence with respect to such financing or securitization transaction; provided that no such sale,
transfer, pledge or assignment under this clause (y) shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such Person or party for such Lender as a party hereto until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement
from such Person or party in form satisfactory to Agent executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto, and
shall have received such other information regarding such assignee as Agent reasonably shall require. Agent, acting solely for this purpose
as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States of America a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lender(s), and the Term Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each
Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent
manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and the Lender(s) shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and
any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

    	51

     

    

 

11.8
Participations. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain
a register complying with the requirements of Sections 163(f), 871(h) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations issued
thereunder on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s
interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender
shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any
information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any
Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation
is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such
participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its
capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. Borrower agrees that each participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of the provisions in Addendum 1 attached hereto (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including
the requirements under Section 7 of Addendum 1 attached hereto (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 7 of
Addendum 1 attached hereto shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired
its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.7; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Addendum 1 attached hereto, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive,
except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the participant acquired
the applicable participation.

 

11.9
Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been negotiated and delivered to Agent and the Lenders in the State of
California, and shall have been accepted by Agent and the Lenders in the State of California. Payment to Agent and the Lenders by Borrower
of the Secured Obligations is due in the State of California. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed
and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application
of laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

11.10
Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. All judicial proceedings (to the extent that the reference requirement of Section 11.11 is not applicable)
arising in or under or related to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents may be brought in any state or federal court located
in the State of California. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents
to nonexclusive personal jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, State of California; (b) waives any objection as to jurisdiction or venue
in Santa Clara County, State of California; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue in the aforesaid
courts; and (d) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
Service of process on any party hereto in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if given in accordance
with the requirements for notice set forth in Section 11.2, and shall be deemed effective and received as set forth in Section 11.2.
Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of either party
to bring proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

 

    	52

     

    

 

11.11
Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial / Judicial Reference.

 

(a)
Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced
and expert Person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire
that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. EACH OF BORROWER, AGENT AND THE LENDERS SPECIFICALLY WAIVES
ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM
(COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY BORROWER AGAINST AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEE OR BY AGENT, THE LENDERS
OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEE AGAINST BORROWER. This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve Persons other than
Agent, Borrower and the Lenders; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship among Borrower, Agent and the
Lenders; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, tort, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising
out of this Agreement, or any other Loan Document.

 

(b)
If the waiver of jury trial set forth in Section 11.11(a) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be
resolved by reference to a private judge sitting without a jury, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, before a mutually acceptable
referee or, if the parties cannot agree, a referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California. Such proceeding
shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, California, with California rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such proceeding.

 

(c)
In the event Claims are to be resolved by judicial reference, either party may seek from a court identified in Section 11.10, any prejudgment
order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding
that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by judicial reference.

 

11.12
Professional Fees. Borrower promises to pay Agent’s and the Lenders’ fees and expenses necessary to finalize the loan documentation,
including but not limited to reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, UCC search fees, filing costs, and other
miscellaneous out-of-pocket expenses. In addition, Borrower promises to pay any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’
and other professionals’ fees and expenses incurred by Agent and the Lenders after the Closing Date in connection with or related
to: (a) the Loan; (b) the administration, collection, or enforcement of the Loan; (c) the amendment or modification of the Loan Documents;
(d) any waiver, consent, release, or termination under the Loan Documents; (e) the protection, preservation, audit, field exam, sale,
lease, liquidation, or disposition of Collateral or the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral; (f) any legal, litigation,
administrative, arbitration, or out of court proceeding in connection with or related to Borrower or the Collateral, and any appeal or
review thereof; and (g) any bankruptcy, restructuring, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, workout, foreclosure,
or other action related to Borrower, the Collateral, the Loan Documents, including representing Agent or the Lenders in any adversary
proceeding or contested matter commenced or continued by or on behalf of Borrower’s estate, and any appeal or review thereof.

 

    	53

     

    

 

11.13
Confidentiality. Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that certain items of Collateral and information provided to Agent and the Lenders
by Borrower are confidential and proprietary information of Borrower, if and to the extent such information either (i) is marked as confidential
by Borrower at the time of disclosure, or (ii) should reasonably be understood to be confidential (the “Confidential Information”).
Accordingly, Agent and the Lenders agree that any Confidential Information it may obtain shall not be disclosed to any other Person or
entity in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Borrower, except that Agent and the Lenders
may disclose any such information: (a) to its Affiliates and its partners, investors, lenders, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors, counsel, accountants, counsel, representative and other professional advisors if Agent or the Lenders in their reasonable discretion
determines that any such party should have access to such information in connection with such party’s responsibilities in connection
with the Loan or this Agreement and, provided that such recipient of such Confidential Information either (i) agrees to be bound by the
confidentiality provisions of this paragraph or (ii) is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions consistent with the terms of
this Section 11.13 that reasonably protect against the disclosure and use of Confidential Information; (b) if such information is generally
available to the public or to the extent such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section
or becomes available to Agent or any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than
Borrower and not in violation of any confidentiality obligations known to Agent or such Lender; (c) if required or appropriate in any
report, statement or testimony submitted to any governmental authority having or claiming to have jurisdiction over Agent or the Lenders
and any rating agency; (d) if required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, to
the extent permitted or deemed advisable by Agent’s or the Lenders’ counsel; (e) to comply with any legal requirement or
law applicable to Agent or the Lenders or demanded by any governmental authority; (f) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection
with the exercise of, or preparing to exercise, or the enforcement of, or preparing to enforce, any right or remedy under any Loan Document,
including Agent’s sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral after default, or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan
Document; (g) to any participant or assignee of Agent or the Lenders or any prospective participant or assignee; provided, that such
participant or assignee or prospective participant or assignee is subject to confidentiality restrictions that reasonably protect against
the disclosure of Confidential Information; (h) to any investor or potential investor (and each of their respective Affiliates or clients)
in Agent or the Lenders (or each of their respective Affiliates); provided that such investor, potential investor, Affiliate or client
is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to the Confidential Information; (i) otherwise to the extent consisting of general
portfolio information that does not identify Borrower; or (j) otherwise with the prior consent of Borrower; provided, that any disclosure
made in violation of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any guarantor under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligations under this Section 11.13 shall supersede all
of their respective obligations under the Non-Disclosure Agreement.

 

11.14
Assignment of Rights. Borrower acknowledges and understands that Agent or the Lenders may, subject to Section 11.7, sell and assign all
or part of its interest hereunder and under the Loan Documents to any Person or entity (an “Assignee”). After such assignment
the term “Agent” or “Lender” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean and include such Assignee, and such Assignee
shall be vested with all rights, powers and remedies of Agent and the Lenders hereunder with respect to the interest so assigned; but
with respect to any such interest not so transferred, Agent and the Lenders shall retain all rights, powers and remedies hereby given.
No such assignment by Agent or the Lenders shall relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder. The Lenders agree that in the
event of any transfer by it of any promissory notes, it will endorse thereon a notation as to the portion of the principal of such promissory
notes, which shall have been paid at the time of such transfer and as to the date to which interest shall have been last paid thereon.

 

Each
Assignee (i) consents to the terms and provisions of the Side Letter, (ii) agrees that it is and will be bound (as Agent or a Lender,
as applicable) by the terms and conditions of the Side Letter, whether or not such Assignee executes such agreement and (iii) authorizes
the Agent to enter into the Side Letter and (iv) will not take any actions contrary to the provisions of the Side Letter.

 

    	54

     

    

 

11.15
Termination; Revival of Secured Obligations; Release.

 

(a)
Other than as set forth in Section 11.6, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall terminate upon the payment in full in Cash
of all Secured Obligations (other than any inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive
the termination of this Agreement). This Agreement and the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective
if any petition is filed by or against Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, if Borrower becomes insolvent or makes an assignment
for the benefit of creditors, if a receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s assets, or if
any payment or transfer of Collateral is recovered from Agent or the Lenders. The Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations and Collateral
security shall continue to be effective, or shall be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance
of the Secured Obligations or any transfer of Collateral to Agent, or any part thereof is rescinded, avoided or avoidable, reduced in
amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by, or is recovered from, Agent, the Lenders or by any obligee of the Secured Obligations,
whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment, performance,
or transfer of Collateral had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, avoided, avoidable,
restored, returned, or recovered, the Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations shall be deemed, without any further action or documentation,
to have been revived and reinstated except to the extent of the full, final, and indefeasible payment to Agent or the Lenders in Cash.

 

(b)
Each of the Lenders agree that upon request by the Agent at any time to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction
not prohibited by any Loan Document (after written request therefore from the Borrower, which written request shall be reasonably detailed
and include a summary of the permitted transaction for which such release or subordination is sought as well as a description of the
subject Collateral which is to be released or subordinated), the Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall
be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release or subordinate
their interests in the Liens granted hereunder to secure the Secured Obligations. Thereafter, the Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably
authorizes the Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as the Borrower
may reasonably request in writing to evidence such release or subordination for such permitted transaction.

 

11.16
Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts,
and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which
counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 

    	55

     

    

 

11.17
No Third Party Beneficiaries. No provisions of the Loan Documents are intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party
beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any Person other than Agent, the Lenders and Borrower unless specifically provided
otherwise herein, and, except as otherwise so provided, all provisions of the Loan Documents will be personal and solely among Agent,
the Lenders and the Loan Parties which are a party thereto.

 

11.18
Agency. Agent and each Lender hereby agree to the terms and conditions set forth on Addendum 3 attached hereto. Borrower acknowledges
and agrees to the terms and conditions set forth on Addendum 3 attached hereto.

 

11.19
Publicity. None of the parties hereto nor any of its respective member businesses and Affiliates shall, without the other parties’
prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), publicize or use (a) the other party’s name (including
a brief description of the relationship among the parties hereto), logo or hyperlink to such other parties’ web site, separately
or together, in written and oral presentations, advertising, promotional and marketing materials, client lists, public relations materials
or on its web site (together, the “Publicity Materials”); (b) the names of officers of such other parties in the Publicity
Materials; and (c) such other parties’ name, trademarks, servicemarks in any news or press release concerning such party; provided
however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such consent shall be required (i) to the extent necessary to comply with
the requests of any regulators, legal requirements or laws applicable to such party, pursuant to any listing agreement with any national
securities exchange (so long as such party provides prior notice to the other party hereto to the extent reasonably practicable) and
(ii) to comply with Section 11.13.

 

11.20
Multiple Borrowers. Each Borrower party hereto from time to time hereby agrees to the terms and conditions set forth on Addendum 4 attached
hereto.

 

11.21
Electronic Execution of Certain Other Documents. The words “execution,” “execute,” “signed,” “signature,”
and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby (including without limitation assignments, assumptions, amendments, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic
signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by Agent, or the keeping
of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature
or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including
the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the California Uniform Electronic Transaction Act, or any other
similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

AMENDMENT
TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

This
Amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain First Amendment Employment Agreement by and between Provention
Bio, Inc. (the “Provention”) and Ashleigh Palmer (“Executive”) dated May 19, 2020 (as amended,
the “Employment Agreement”), is effective as of September 9, 2022.

 

WHEREAS,
Provention and Executive are parties to that certain Employment Agreement;

 

WHEREAS,
Executive and Provention desire to amend the Employment Agreement as set forth herein;

 

WHEREAS,
this Amendment provides for the potential for increased benefits as compared to the benefits provided in the Employment Agreement, including,
without limitation, the increased severance compensation set forth herein in the event of termination of the Employment Agreement (the
“Additional Severance”);

 

WHEREAS,
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the opportunity to receive Additional Severance is fair and reasonable consideration for the execution
of this Amendment that is independent of the Executive’s continued employment with the Company; and

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, Executive and Provention hereby agree that the Employment Agreement shall be amended as follows:

 

		1.	Section
                                            4.1 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended as follows: Sections 4.1(d) and (e) are
                                            hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with:
	 	 	 
		d)	If
                                            the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4.1(a), other than during
                                            the Post-Change in Control Period (as defined in Section 4.1(e)), the Executive shall, in
                                            full discharge of all of the Company’s obligations to the Executive, be entitled to
                                            receive, and the Company’s sole obligation to the Executive under this Agreement or
                                            otherwise shall be to pay or provide to the Executive, the following:

 

		i.	the
                                            Accrued Obligations (as defined in Section 4.2(b));

 

		ii.	each
                                            outstanding stock option held by the Executive under the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive
                                            Plan (or any successor plan) (the “Equity Plan”) that provides for vesting solely
                                            based on continued service (“time-based” vesting ) shall become fully vested,
                                            and all of the Executive’s outstanding vested stock options (whether providing time-based
                                            or performance-based vesting) shall remain exercisable for a period of twelve (12) months
                                            following the Termination Date (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term
                                            thereof); and

 

    	 

     

    

 

		iii.	subject
                                            to Section 4.4, Section 4.5, Section 4.6, Section 4.7, and compliance with the terms of the
                                            Covenants Agreement: (A) payments equal to eighteen (18) months of Executive’s Base
                                            Salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date (provided that if
                                            such salary has been reduced, the pre-reduction Base Salary); and (B) eighteen (18) months
                                            of COBRA premiums, in each case less applicable withholdings and authorized deductions (the
                                            “Pre-CIC Severance Payments”), to be paid (subject to Section 5.16) in
                                            equal installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, commencing
                                            on the next regular payroll date that occurs on or after the sixtieth (60th) day following
                                            the Termination Date; provided, however, that payments under subsection (B) of this section
                                            will cease in the event that Executive secures substantially gainful employment from a new
                                            employer prior to the expiration of the time such payments are to be paid, and Executive
                                            agrees to immediately inform the Company in writing if he becomes employed by a new employer.
                                            In addition, Executive shall (X) receive accelerated vesting of any equity awards (other
                                            than stock options) to the extent such awards would have become vested during the nine (9)
                                            months period following the Termination Date had Executive continued to be employed by the
                                            Company, and (Y) be eligible to receive the pro rata portion of the Executive’s Annual
                                            Bonus based on objectives achieved at the termination date, which shall be paid on the date
                                            the subject annual bonus would have been paid had Executive’s employment continued.

 

		e)	If
                                            the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4.1(a) within twelve (12)
                                            months following a Change in Control (as defined below) (the “Post-Change in Control
                                            Period”), the Executive shall, in full discharge of all of the Company’s
                                            obligations to the Executive (and in lieu of any payments and benefits set forth in Section
                                            4.1(d)), be entitled to receive, and the Company’s sole obligation to the Executive
                                            under this Agreement or otherwise shall be to pay or provide to the Executive, the following:

 

		i.	the
                                            Accrued Obligations; and
	 	 	 
		ii.	subject
                                            to Section 4.4, Section 4.5, Section 4.6, Section 4.7, and compliance with the terms of the
                                            Covenants Agreement, (A) payments equal to twenty-four (24) months of Executive’s Base
                                            Salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date (provided that if
                                            such salary has been reduced, the pre-reduction Base Salary), (B) twenty-four (24) months
                                            of COBRA premiums, and (C) the pro rata portion of the Executive’s Target Bonus over
                                            the twenty-four (24) month severance period, in each case less applicable withholdings and
                                            authorized deductions (the “Post-CIC Severance Payments”), to be paid
                                            (subject to Section 5.16) in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s regular
                                            payroll schedule, commencing on the next regular payroll date that occurs on or after the
                                            sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date; provided, however, that payments under
                                            subsection (B) of this section will cease in the event that Executive secures substantially
                                            gainful employment from a new employer prior to the expiration of the time such payments
                                            are to be paid, and Executive agrees to immediately inform the Company in writing if he becomes
                                            employed by a new employer. In addition, Executive shall be deemed to be fully vested in
                                            any and all outstanding equity awards of Executive, and each of Executive’s outstanding
                                            stock options shall remain exercisable until the expiration date of the term of such option.

 

		2.	Except
                                            as amended herein, the Employment Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in all
                                            respects.
	 	 	 
		3.	This
                                            Amendment is subject to the applicable terms and conditions and of the Employment Agreement.
	 	 	 
		4.	This
                                            Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original
                                            but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Amendment may
                                            be delivered via facsimile or scanned “PDF” which shall be an original for all
                                            purposes.
