    	 	-16-

and, subject to the satisfaction of the Tranche 2 Term Loan Requirements, Lenders will severally (and not jointly) make one or

The aggregate principal amount
of outstanding Term Loan Advances may be up to the Maximum Term Loan Amount.

 

(b)          Advance
Request. To obtain a Term Loan Advance, Borrower shall complete, sign and deliver an Advance Request (at least five (5) Business
Days before the Advance Date, other than with respect to the Term Loan Advance on the Closing Date, for which such Advance Request
shall be delivered at least one (1) Business Day before the Closing Date, or such shorter period of time as the Agent may

    	 	-17-	 

     

    

 

(d)          Payment.
Borrower will pay interest on each Term Loan Advance on the first Business Day of each month, beginning the month after the corresponding
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 any inchoate indemnity
obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) 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. Lender will initiate debit entries to the Parent’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 11.11 of this
Agreement; provided that, with respect to clause (i) above, in the event that the Lenders or Agent informs Parent that the
Lenders will not initiate a debit entry to the Parent’s account for a certain amount of the periodic obligations due on a
specific payment date, Borrower shall pay to 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 the Lenders or Agent informs the Parent
in writing in advance that the Lenders 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 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 the Lenders or Agent notifies the Parent of such;
provided, further, that, with respect to clause (ii) above, in the event that the Lenders or Agent informs the Parent in writing
in advance that the Lenders will not initiate a debit entry to the Parent’s account for certain amount of such out-of-pocket
legal fees and costs incurred by Agent or the Lenders, Borrower shall pay to the Lenders such amount 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 Lender’s 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 Parent.

 

    	 	-18-	 

     

    

 

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 unpaid Secured Obligations, including principal, interest, compounded interest, and professional fees, shall bear interest
at a rate per annum equal to the Term Loan Interest Rate, 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 Term
Loan Interest Rate or the rate set forth in Section 2.4, as applicable.

 

2.5       Prepayment.
At its option upon at least seven (7) Business Days prior notice to Agent (or such shorter notice period as agreed to by Agent),
Borrower may prepay all, but not less than all, or a portion (in minimum increments of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000)), of the
outstanding Advances by paying the entire principal balance (or such portion thereof) plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
together with a prepayment charge equal to the following percentage of the Advance amount being prepaid: if such notice of prepayment
is made (a) on or prior to the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date, 3.0%; (b) after the date
that is six (6) months following the Closing Date, but on or prior to the date that is twenty-four (24) months following the
Closing Date, 2%; or (c) after the date that is twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date, 1% (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 Lender’s 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 the occurrence of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and the Lenders
agree to waive the Prepayment Charge if Agent and the Lenders (in its sole and absolute discretion) agree in writing to refinance
the Advances prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date. 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.

 

    	 	-19-	 

     

    

 

2.6       End
of Term Charge. On the earliest to occur of (i) the Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the date that Borrower prepays 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) in whole or in part, or (iii) the date that the Secured Obligations become
due and payable, Borrower shall pay Lenders a charge equal to 6.95% of the aggregate Term Loan Advances repaid or prepaid (the
 “End of Term Charge”). 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.

 

2.7       Taxes;
Increased Costs. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders each hereby agree to the terms and conditions set forth on Addendum 1
attached hereto.

 

2.8       Notes.
If so requested by the Lenders by written notice to Parent, then Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lenders (and/or, if
applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of Lender pursuant to Section 11.13) (promptly
after the Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence Lender’s Loans.

 

2.9       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 Lender.

 

2.10     Treatment
of Prepayment Charge and End of Term Charge. Borrower agrees that, subject to the terms and conditions hereto, 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, subject to the terms and conditions hereto,
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. Borrower 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, subject to the terms and conditions hereto, 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; (d) Borrower shall be estopped from claiming differently than as agreed to in this
paragraph. Borrower expressly acknowledges that their 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.

consigned by or to, or acquired by, Parent and wherever located, and any of Parent’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 court of competent jurisdiction (including a U.S. Bankruptcy Court) shall finally determine
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 Closing Date, include the Intellectual Property to the extent
necessary to permit perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Rights to Payment.

 

3.2       Notwithstanding
the broad grant of the security interest set forth in Section 3.1, above, the Collateral shall not include (a) nonassignable
licenses or contracts, which by their terms require the consent of the licensor thereof or another party, (b) any leasehold
real property interest, license, lease or other contract or agreement or any property subject to a purchase money security interest
or similar arrangement to the extent that a grant of a security interest therein would violate or invalidate such lease, license,
contract or agreement or purchase money arrangement or create a right of termination in favor of any other party thereto (but
only to the extent such prohibition on transfer or grant of a security interest is enforceable under applicable law, including,
without limitation, Sections 9406, 9407 and 9408 of the UCC), (c) any property to the extent that, and for as long as, such
grant of a security interest is prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation, (d) Excluded Accounts, (e) motor
vehicles or other assets in which a security interest may be perfected only though compliance with a certificate of title statute,
(f) any interest of Borrower as a lessee under an equipment lease or other capital assets constituting purchase money Liens
to the extent permitted pursuant hereto if Borrower is prohibited by the terms thereof from granting a security interest therein
or under which such an assignment or Lien would cause a default to occur thereunder; provided, however, that upon termination
or cessation of such prohibition, such interest shall immediately become Collateral without any action by Borrower, Agent or Lenders,
(g) the Royalty Interest (as defined in the HCR Agreement) and the right to receive Royalty Interest Payments (as defined
in the HCR Agreement) or (h) subject to the terms and limitations of Section 3.1, Intellectual Property.

 

    	 	-21-	 

     

    

 

3.3       Release
of Swedish Security. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement or in any Loan Document, the release of any duly perfected
Lien which is created or expressed to be created pursuant to a Loan Document which is governed by Swedish law or any disposal or
other transfer of any asset which is, or is expressed to be, the subject of any perfected Lien which is governed by Swedish law
will always be subject to the prior written consent of the Agent, such consent to be given at the Agent’s sole discretion
(acting reasonably, with such consent not to be unreasonably delayed) other than following the discharge in full of the Secured
Obligations. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to consent to and give effect to such release of such Lien at its discretion
without any further consent, sanction, authority from or notification or further reference to the Lenders.

 

3.4       At
such time as the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (other than any inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations
which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created
by the Loan Documents and the Agent shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, shall execute and deliver to the Borrower
all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent and the Lenders consent to the automatic release of any Lien
in Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof to any Person
in a transaction permitted by, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Loan Documents.

 

3.5       Swedish
law limitations. The obligations and liabilities of Albireo AB under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be limited
if and to the extent required by an application of the provisions of the Swedish Companies Act (Aktiebolagslagen (2005:551))
regulating (i) distribution of assets (Chapter 17, Sections 1-4 (or their equivalents from time to time)) (including profits
and dividends and any other form of transfer of value (värdeöverföring) within the meaning of the Swedish
Companies Act) and/or (ii) prohibited loans, guarantees and security (Chapter 21, Section 1-3 (or their equivalents from
time to time)) and it is agreed that the obligations and liabilities of Albireo AB only applies to the extent permitted by the
above mentioned provisions of the Swedish Companies Act.

SECTION 5.

REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES OF BORROWER

 

Borrower represents
and warrants that:

 

5.1       Corporate
Status. Albireo Pharma, Inc. is a corporation duly organized, legally existing and in good standing under the laws of the
State of Delaware, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation 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. Albireo AB is a private limited liability company duly incorporated and legally existing under the laws of Sweden.
Elobix AB is a private limited liability company duly incorporated and legally existing under the laws of Sweden. Borrower’s
present name, former names (if any), locations, place of formation, tax identification number (if any), organizational identification
number and other information are correctly set forth in Exhibit C, as may be updated by Parent in a written notice (including
any Compliance Certificate) provided to Agent after the Closing Date.

 

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

 

    	 	-24-	 

     

    

 

5.3       Consents.
Borrower’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, and the Parent’s execution
of the Warrant, (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of Borrower or the Parent, as applicable,
(ii) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon the Collateral, other than Permitted Liens and the Liens
created by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iii) do not violate any provisions of Borrower’s respective
Certificates or Articles of Incorporation or Association (as applicable), bylaws, or 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 any contract or agreement
or require the consent or approval of any other Person which has not already been obtained, except for consents and approvals the
failure of which to obtain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The individual or individuals executing
the Loan Documents and the Warrant 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.
Borrower is not aware of any event 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 Borrower, threatened in writing against or affecting Borrower or its property, that
are reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.6       Laws.
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 in any manner under any provision of any agreement or instrument
evidencing Indebtedness, or any other agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound that could reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

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 primary 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 nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding
company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” as each term is defined and used in the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Neither Borrower’s nor any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has
been used by Borrower or such Subsidiary or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing,
treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than in material compliance with applicable laws. Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all
notices to, all governmental authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted, except
where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	 	-25-	 

     

    

 

None of Borrower,
any of its Subsidiaries, or to the Borrower’s knowledge, any of Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ Affiliates or,
to the Borrower’s knowledge, any of their respective agents acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement is (i) in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law, (ii) engaging in or conspiring to engage
in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions
set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law, or (iii) is a Blocked Person. None of Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, or to the knowledge
of Borrower and any of their Affiliates or agents, acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, (x) conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services
to or for the benefit of any Blocked Person, or (y) deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property
or interest in property blocked pursuant to Executive Order No. 13224, any similar executive order or other Anti-Terrorism
Law. None of the funds to be provided under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, (a) for any activities in
violation of any applicable anti-money laundering, economic sanctions and anti-bribery laws and regulations or (b) for any
payment to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office,
or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage,
in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

 

5.7       Information
Correct and Current. No written information, report, Advance Request, financial statement, exhibit or schedule furnished (other
than financial or business projections or other information of a forward-looking nature), by or on behalf of Borrower to Agent
in connection with any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto contained, or, when taken as a whole, contains
or will contain any material misstatement of fact or, when taken together with all other such information or documents, omitted,
omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were, are or will be made, not materially misleading at the time such statement was made or deemed made. Additionally,
any and all financial or business projections provided by Borrower to Agent, whether prior to or after the Closing Date, shall
be (i) provided in good faith and based on the most current data and information available to Borrower, and (ii) the
most current of such projections provided to Borrower’s Board of Directors (it being understood that such projections are
subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Borrower, that no assurance is
given that any particular projections will be realized, and that actual results may differ).

 

5.8       Tax
Matters. Except as described on Schedule 5.8 and except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP,
(a) Borrower has filed all federal, state and local tax returns that it is required to file, (b) Borrower has duly paid
or fully reserved for all taxes or installments thereof (including any interest or penalties) as and when due, which have or may
become due pursuant to such returns, (c) Borrower has paid or fully reserved for any tax assessment received by Borrower for
the three (3) years preceding the Closing Date, if any (including any taxes being contested in good faith and by appropriate
proceedings) and (d) to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no proposed or pending Tax assessments, deficiencies, audits
or other proceedings with respect to Borrower or any Subsidiary have had, or could reasonably be expected to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	 	-26-	 

     

    

 

5.9       Intellectual
Property Claims. Except for Permitted Liens, Borrower is the sole owner of, or otherwise has the right to use, the Intellectual
Property that it uses in, and that is material to, Borrower’s business. Except as described on Schedule 5.9, (i) each
of the material Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents is, to the knowledge of Borrower, valid and enforceable, (ii) no material
part of the Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, by a court of competent jurisdiction,
and (iii) no claim has been made to Borrower in writing that any material part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights
of any third party except to the extent such claim could not reasonably be excepted to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Exhibit D
is a true, correct and complete list of each of Borrower’s registered Patents, registered Trademarks, registered Copyrights,
and material agreements under which Borrower licenses Intellectual Property from third parties (other than shrink-wrap software
licenses), together with application or registration numbers, as applicable, owned by Borrower or any Subsidiary, in each case
as of the Closing Date. Borrower is not in breach of, nor has Borrower failed to perform any obligations under, any of the foregoing
contracts, licenses or agreements and, to Borrower’s knowledge, no third party to any such contract, license or agreement
is in breach thereof or has failed to perform any obligations thereunder, in each case, except where such breach or failure to
perform could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.10     Intellectual
Property. Except as described on Schedule 5.10, Borrower has all material rights with respect to Intellectual Property necessary
in the operation or conduct of Borrower’s business as currently conducted by Borrower. 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, Borrower
has the right, to the extent required to operate Borrower’s business, to freely transfer, license or assign Intellectual
Property necessary or material in the operation or conduct of Borrower’s business as currently conducted by Borrower, without
condition, restriction or payment of any kind (other than license payments in the ordinary course of business) to any third party,
and Borrower 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 Borrower’s business and used in the design, development,
promotion, sale, license, manufacture, import, export, use or distribution of Borrower Products. Borrower is not a party to, nor
is it bound by, any Restricted License.

 

No material software or other
materials used by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or used in any Borrower Products or any Subsidiaries’ 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) (collectively, “Open Source Licenses”) 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 could require disclosure or distribution in source code form.

 

    	 	-27-	 

     

    

 

5.11     Borrower
Products. Except as described on Schedule 5.11, no Intellectual Property owned by Borrower or Borrower Product has been or is subject
to any actual or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened in writing 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 Borrower’s use, transfer or licensing thereof or that may affect the
validity, use or enforceability thereof, in each case, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To
the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, there is no decree, order, judgment, agreement, stipulation, arbitral award or other
provision entered into in connection with any litigation or proceeding that obligates Borrower to grant licenses or ownership interest
in any future Intellectual Property related to the operation or conduct of the business of Borrower or Borrower Products. Borrower
has not received any written notice or claim or, to the knowledge of Borrower, any oral notice or claim, challenging or questioning
Borrower’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 Borrower’s knowledge, in each case, is there a reasonable basis for any such claim.
To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, neither Borrower’s use of its Intellectual Property nor the production and sale
of Borrower Products infringes the Intellectual Property or other rights of others.

 

5.12     Financial
Accounts. Exhibit E, as may be updated by the Parent in a written notice provided to Agent after the Closing Date, is a true,
correct and complete list of (a) all banks and other financial institutions at which Borrower or any Subsidiary maintains
Deposit Accounts and (b) all institutions at which Borrower or any Subsidiary maintains an account holding Investment Property,
and such exhibit correctly identifies the name, address and telephone number of each bank or other institution, the name in which
the account is held, a description of the purpose of the account, and the complete account number therefor.

 

5.13     Employee
Loans. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.13, which may be updated from time to time by Parent, and subject to the review and approval
of Agent, Borrower has no outstanding loans to any employee, officer or director of the Borrower nor has Borrower guaranteed the
payment of any loan made to an employee, officer or director of the Borrower by a third party.

 

5.14     Subsidiaries.
Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other securities of any Person, except for Permitted Investments. Attached
as Schedule 5.14, as may be updated by Parent in a written notice provided after the Closing Date, is a true, correct and complete
list of each Subsidiary.

 

    	 	-28-	 

     

    

 

SECTION 6.

INSURANCE; INDEMNIFICATION

 

6.1            Coverage.
Borrower shall cause to be carried and maintained commercial general liability insurance, 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 indemnity found in
Section 6.3. Borrower must maintain a minimum of $2,000,000 of commercial general liability insurance for each occurrence.
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 (other than any inchoate indemnity obligations
and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement), 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.

 

6.2            Certificates.
Borrower shall deliver to Agent certificates of insurance that evidence Borrower’s compliance with its insurance obligations
in Section 6.1 and the obligations contained in this Section 6.2. Borrower’s insurance certificate shall state
Agent (shown as “Hercules Capital, Inc., as Agent”) is 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. 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; such endorsements to be provided to Agent no later than ten (10) Business
Days after the Closing Date; provided that the failure timely to so deliver such endorsements shall constitute an immediate, non-curable
Event of Default. 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
no later than concurrently with the monthly financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(a).

 

    	 	-29-	 

     

    

 

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 and documented 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. Borrower agrees to pay, and to save Agent and
the Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay by Borrower in paying, any and
all excise, sales or other similar taxes (excluding taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Agent or the Lenders) that
may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or this Agreement. In no event shall Borrower
or 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.

 

SECTION 7.

by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement), 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, nondisclosure
or confidentiality agreements, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to
the subject matter hereof or thereof (including Agent’s revised proposal letter dated April 16, 2020).

 

(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). The Required Lenders and Borrower party to the relevant Loan Document may, or,
with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agent and the Borrower 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 Borrower hereunder or thereunder or (ii) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the 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 Borrower 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 Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders and,
in relation to any release of Collateral which is governed by Swedish law only, the Agent in accordance with Section 3.4;
or (D) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11.17 or Addendum 3 without the written consent of the Agent.
Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding upon
Borrower, the Lenders, the 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.

 

    	 	-42-	 

     

    

 

11.5         No
Waiver. The powers conferred upon Agent and the Lenders by this Agreement are solely to protect its 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 it, 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, 11.13, 11.14 and 11.17 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). Borrower shall not 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 without prior notice to Borrower,
and all of such rights shall inure to the benefit of Agent’s and the Lenders’ successors and assigns; provided that
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 reasonably determined by
Agent), it being acknowledged that in all cases, any transfer to an Affiliate of any Lender or Agent shall be allowed. 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. The Agent, acting
solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders(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 the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders(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 the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice.

 

    	 	-43-	 

     

    

 

11.8         Governing
Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Swedish Pledge Agreement) 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.

 

11.9         Consent
to Jurisdiction and Venue. All judicial proceedings (to the extent that the reference requirement of Section 11.10 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.

 

11.10       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, any other Loan Document.

 

    	 	-44-	 

     

    

 

(b)               If
the waiver of jury trial set forth in Section 11.10(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 11.9,
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.

 

11.11       Professional
Fees. Borrower promises to pay Agent’s and the Lenders’ fees and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses necessary
to finalize the loan documentation, including but not limited to reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, UCC searches,
filing costs, and other miscellaneous expenses. In addition, Borrower promises to pay any and all reasonable and documented 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.

 

11.12       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 (x) is marked as confidential
by Borrower at the time of disclosure, or (y) should reasonably be understood to be confidential (the “Confidential
Information”). Accordingly, Agent and the Lenders agree that any Confidential Information it may obtain in the course of
acquiring, administering or perfecting Agent’s security interest in the Collateral 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, partners, investors, lenders, directors, officers, employees,
agents, advisors, accountants, counsel, representatives and other professional advisors if Agent or the Lenders in their sole 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
that reasonably protect against the disclosure 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 the Borrower; (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 Lender’s 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 an Event of 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; (h) to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrower; or
(i) 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 Lenders’ obligations under this Section 11.12 shall supersede all of their respective obligations
under the Non-Disclosure Agreement.

 

    	 	-45-	 

     

    

 

11.13       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 Eligible Assignee. After such assignment the term “Agent”
or “Lender” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean and include such Eligible Assignee, and such Eligible 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 the Note(s)(if any), it will endorse thereon a notation as to the portion of the principal
of the Note(s), 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.

 

11.14       Revival
of Secured Obligations. 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, Lender 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
and final payment to Agent or the Lenders in Cash.

 

    	 	-46-	 

     

    

 

11.15       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.

 

11.16       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, Lender 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 Borrower.

 

11.17      Agency.

 

(a)            Each
Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Hercules Capital, Inc. to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the
Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

 

(b)            Each
Lender agrees to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the
obligation of Borrower to do so), according to its respective Term Commitment percentage (based upon the total outstanding Term
Commitments) in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 11.17, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever
that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, this Agreement,
any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; The agreements
in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

(c)            Agent
in Its Individual Capacity. The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as
a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent and the term “Lender” shall,
unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include each such Person serving as Agent hereunder
in its individual capacity.

 

    	 	-47-	 

     

    

 

(d)            Exculpatory
Provisions. The Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall not:

 

		(i)	be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether any default or any Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

		(ii)	have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed
in writing by the Lenders, provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion
of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

 

		(iii)	except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose,
and the Agent shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates
that is communicated to or obtained by any Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

 

(e)           The
Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Lenders or
as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances or (ii) in the absence of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(f)           The
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation
made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any default or Event
of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere
herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

 

(g)           Reliance
by Agent. Agent may rely, and shall be fully protected in acting, or refraining to act, upon, any resolution, statement, certificate,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond or other paper or document that it has no reason to believe
to be other than genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties or, in the case of cables, telecopies
and telexes, to have been sent by the proper party or parties. In the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, Agent
may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates
or opinions furnished to Agent and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Agent may
consult with counsel, and any opinion or legal advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken, not taken or suffered by Agent hereunder or under any Loan Documents in accordance therewith. Agent
shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of the Collateral from any court of competent
jurisdiction. Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers granted to Agent by this Agreement,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at the request or direction of the Lenders unless Agent shall have been provided by
the Lenders with adequate security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by it in compliance
with such request or direction.

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

(b)            Waivers.
Borrower hereby waives: (i) any right to require the Agent to institute suit against, or to exhaust its rights and remedies
against, any other Borrower or any other person, or to proceed against any property of any kind which secures all or any part of
the Secured Obligations, or to exercise any right of offset or other right with respect to any reserves, credits or deposit accounts

the Agent to obtain, perfect, maintain or keep in force any Lien on, any property of any Borrower or any other person; (iv) any
defense based upon or arising out of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation
or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any other Borrower or any guarantor or any endorser, co-maker or other person,
including without limitation any discharge of, or bar against collecting, any of the Secured Obligations (including without limitation
any interest thereon), in or as a result of any such proceeding. Until all of the Secured Obligations have been paid, performed,
and discharged in full, nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of any Borrower hereunder except the full performance
and payment of all of the Secured Obligations. If any claim is ever made upon the Agent for repayment or recovery of any amount
or amounts received by the Agent in payment of or on account of any of the Secured Obligations, because of any claim that any such
payment constituted a preferential transfer or fraudulent conveyance, or for any other reason whatsoever, and the Agent repays
all or part of said amount by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over
the Agent or any of its property, or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Agent with any
such claimant (including without limitation the any other Borrower), then and in any such event, Borrower agrees that any such
judgment, decree, order, settlement and compromise shall be binding upon Borrower, notwithstanding any revocation or release of
this Agreement or the cancellation of any note or other instrument evidencing any of the Secured Obligations, or any release of
any of the Secured Obligations, and Borrower shall be and remain liable to the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement for the
amount so repaid or recovered, to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by the Agent or any Lender,
and the provisions of this sentence shall survive, and continue in effect, notwithstanding any revocation or release of this Agreement.
Borrower hereby expressly and unconditionally waives all rights of subrogation, reimbursement and indemnity of every kind against
any other Borrower, and all rights of recourse to any assets or property of any other Borrower, and all rights to any collateral
or security held for the payment and performance of any Secured Obligations, including (but not limited to) any of the foregoing
rights which Borrower may have under any present or future document or agreement with any other Borrower or other person, and including
(but not limited to) any of the foregoing rights which any Borrower may have under any equitable doctrine of subrogation, implied
contract, or unjust enrichment, or any other equitable or legal doctrine.

 

    	 	-50-	 

     

    

 

(c)            Consents.
Borrower hereby consents and agrees that, without notice to or by Borrower and without affecting or impairing in any way the obligations
or liability of Borrower hereunder, the Agent may, from time to time before or after revocation of this Agreement, do any one
or more of the following in its sole discretion: (i) accept partial payments of, compromise or settle, renew, extend the
time for the payment, discharge, or performance of, refuse to enforce, and release all or any parties to, any or all of the Secured
Obligations; (ii) grant any other indulgence to any Borrower or any other Person in respect of any or all of the Secured
Obligations or any other matter; (iii) accept, release, waive, surrender, enforce, exchange, modify, impair, or extend the
time for the performance, discharge, or payment of, any and all property of any kind securing any or all of the Secured Obligations
or any guaranty of any or all of the Secured Obligations, or on which the Agent at any time may have a Lien, or refuse to enforce
its rights or make any compromise or settlement or agreement therefor in respect of any or all of such property; (iv) substitute
or add, or take any action or omit to take any action which results in the release of, any one or more other Borrowers or any
endorsers or guarantors of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation one or more parties to this
Agreement, regardless of any destruction or impairment of any right of contribution or other right of Borrower; (v) apply
any sums received from any other Borrower, any guarantor, endorser, or co-signer, or from the disposition of any Collateral or
security, to any Indebtedness whatsoever owing from such person or secured by such Collateral or security, in such manner and
order as the Agent determines in its sole discretion, and regardless of whether such Indebtedness is part of the Secured Obligations,
is secured, or is due and payable. Borrower consents and agrees that the Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets
in favor of Borrower, or against or in payment of any or all of the Secured Obligations. Borrower further consents and agrees
that the Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities whatsoever with respect to any property securing any or all of the Secured
Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have no obligation to monitor, verify, audit, examine,
or obtain or maintain any insurance with respect to, any property securing any or all of the Secured Obligations.

 

(d)            Independent
Liability. Borrower hereby agrees that one or more successive or concurrent actions may be brought hereon against Borrower, in
the same action in which any other Borrower may be sued or in separate actions, as often as deemed advisable by Agent. Borrower
is fully aware of the financial condition of each other Borrower and is executing and delivering this Agreement based solely upon
its own independent investigation of all matters pertinent hereto, and Borrower is not relying in any manner upon any representation
or statement of the Agent or any Lender with respect thereto. Borrower represents and warrants that it is in a position to obtain,
and Borrower hereby assumes full responsibility for obtaining, any additional information concerning any other Borrower’s
financial condition and any other matter pertinent hereto as Borrower may desire, and Borrower is not relying upon or expecting
the Agent to furnish to it any information now or hereafter in the Agent’s possession concerning the same or any other matter.

 

    	 	-51-	 

     

    

 

(e)            Subordination.
All Indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter arising held by another Borrower is subordinated to the Secured Obligations and
the Borrower holding the Indebtedness shall take all actions reasonably requested by Agent to effect, to enforce and to give notice
of such subordination.

 

(f)            Service
of Process. The Borrower and each Subsidiary that is organized outside of the United States of America shall appoint Corporation
Service Company, or other agent acceptable to Agent, as its agent for the purpose of accepting service of any process in the United
States of America. Borrower shall take all actions, including payment of fees to such agent, to ensure that each such appointment
remains effective at all times.

 

11.20       Participations.
Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain
a register 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 United States 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, the 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.

To Purchase Shares of the Common Stock of

 

ALBIREO PHARMA, INC.

 

Dated as of ________________ __, 2020 (the
 “Effective Date”)

 

WHEREAS, Albireo Pharma, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), has entered into a Loan and Security Agreement of even date herewith (as amended
and in effect from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) with Hercules Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation,
in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent for itself and the Lender (as defined below) (the “Warrantholder”),
and the several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lender”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the
Company has agreed to issue to the Warrantholder this Warrant Agreement, evidencing the right to purchase shares of the Company’s
Common Stock (this “Warrant,” “Warrant Agreement,” or this “Agreement”);

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Warrantholder
having executed and delivered the Loan Agreement and provided the financial accommodations contemplated therein, and in consideration
of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the Company and the Warrantholder agree as follows:

 

 SECTION 1.     GRANT OF THE RIGHT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK.

 

(a)              
For value received, the Company hereby grants to the Warrantholder, and the Warrantholder is entitled, upon the terms and
subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to subscribe for and purchase, from the Company, up to the number of fully paid
and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) as determined pursuant to Section 1(b) below, at a purchase price
per share equal to the Exercise Price (as defined below). The number and Exercise Price of such shares are subject to adjustment
as provided in Section 8. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

    

     

    

 

“Act” means the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended.

 

“Charter” means the Company’s
Certificate of Incorporation or other constitutional document, as may be amended and in effect from time to time.

 

“Common Stock” means the
Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share and any class and/or series of Company capital stock for or into which
such common stock may be converted or exchanged in a reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction.

 

“Exercise Price” means
[the lower of: (i) the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on April 22, 2020 and (ii) the lowest three-day volume-weighted
average price (“VWAP”) between April 22, 2020 and the date of the Loan Agreement], subject to adjustment from
time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.1

 

“Liquid Sale” means the
closing of a Merger Event in which the consideration received by the Company and/or its stockholders, as applicable, consists solely
of cash, Marketable Securities or a combination thereof.

 

“Marketable Securities”
in connection with a Merger Event means securities meeting all of the following requirements: (i) the issuer thereof is then subject
to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), and is then current in its filing of all required reports and other information under the Act and the Exchange
Act; (ii) the class and series of shares or other security of the issuer that would be received by the Warrantholder in connection
with the Merger Event were the Warrantholder to exercise this Warrant on or prior to the closing thereof is then traded on a national
securities exchange or over-the-counter market; and (iii) following the closing of such Merger Event, the Warrantholder would not
be restricted from publicly re-selling all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities that would be received by the Warrantholder
in such Merger Event were the Warrantholder to exercise this Warrant in full on or prior to the closing of such Merger Event, except
to the extent that any such restriction (x) arises solely under federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, and (y)
does not extend beyond six (6) months from the closing of such Merger Event.

 

“Merger Event” means any
of the following: (i) a sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all assets of the Company, (ii) any merger or consolidation
involving the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity or in which the outstanding shares of the Company’s
capital stock are otherwise converted into or exchanged for shares of capital stock or other securities or property of another
entity and in which the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such
merger or consolidation do not hold a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the surviving entity or other entity
immediately following such merger or consolidation, or (iii) any sale by holders of the outstanding voting equity securities of
the Company in a single transaction or series of related transactions of shares constituting a majority of the outstanding combined
voting power of the Company.

 

 

1The
Exercise Price will be fixed, and inserted here, immediately prior to the Effective Date.

 

    2

     

    

 

“Purchase Price” means,
with respect to any exercise of this Warrant, an amount equal to the then-effective Exercise Price multiplied by the number of
shares of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is then exercised.

 

“Warrant Coverage” means
1% of $10,000,000 (the initial amount of the Tranche 1 Term Loan Advance, as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement).

 

(b)              
Number of Shares. This Warrant shall be exercisable for an aggregate of that number of shares of Common Stock equal
to the quotient of (i) the Warrant Coverage divided by (ii) the Exercise Price, subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance
with the provisions of this Warrant.

 

 SECTION 2.     TERM OF THE AGREEMENT.

 

The term of this Agreement and the right to
purchase Common Stock as granted herein shall commence on the Effective Date and, subject to Section 8(a) below, shall be exercisable
until 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Effective Date.

 

 SECTION 3.     EXERCISE OF THE PURCHASE RIGHTS.

 

(a)              
Exercise. The purchase rights set forth in this Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part,
at any time, or from time to time, prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2, by tendering to the Company at its
principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Notice of Exercise”),
duly completed and executed. Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase Price in accordance
with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than three (3) business days thereafter, the Company or its transfer agent
shall either (i) issue to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased or (ii) credit the
same via book entry to the Warrantholder, and the Company shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit II (the “Acknowledgment of Exercise”) indicating the number of shares which remain subject
to future purchases under this Warrant, if any.

 

The Purchase Price may be paid at the Warrantholder’s
election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii) by surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant for shares of Common Stock to be
exercised under this Agreement and, if applicable, an amended Agreement setting forth the remaining number of shares purchasable
hereunder, as determined below (“Net Issuance”). If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, the Company
will issue shares of Common Stock in accordance with the following formula:

 

    3

     

    

 

   X = Y(A-B)

A

 

		Where:	X =          the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder.

 

Y =          the number
of shares of Common Stock requested to be exercised under this Agreement.

 

A =          the then-current
fair market value of one (1) share of Common Stock at the time of exercise.

 

B =          the then-effective
Exercise Price.

 

For purposes of the above calculation, the
current fair market value of shares of Common Stock shall mean with respect to each share of Common Stock:

 

(i)           
at all times when the Common Stock shall be traded on a national securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system or over-the-counter
bulletin board service, the average of the closing prices over a five (5) trading day period ending two (2) trading days before
the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined;

 

(ii)          
if the exercise is in connection with a Merger Event, the per share value received by the holders of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock pursuant to such Merger Event as determined in accordance with the definitive transaction documents executed among
the parties in connection therewith; or

 

(iii)         
in cases other than as described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), as determined in good faith by the Company’s
Board of Directors.

 

Upon partial exercise by either cash or, upon
request of the Warrantholder and surrender of all or a portion of this Warrant, Net Issuance, prior to the expiration or earlier
termination hereof, the Company shall promptly issue an amended Agreement representing the remaining number of shares purchasable
hereunder. All other terms and conditions of such amended Agreement shall be identical to those contained herein, including, but
not limited to the Effective Date hereof. In no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

(b)          
Exercise Prior to Expiration. To the extent this Warrant is not previously exercised as to all shares subject hereto,
and if the then-current fair market value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, or, in
the case of a Liquid Sale, where the value per share of Common Stock (as determined as of the closing of such Liquid Sale in accordance
with the definitive agreements executed by the parties in connection with such Merger Event) to be paid to the holders thereof
is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, this Agreement shall be deemed automatically exercised on a Net Issuance basis
pursuant to Section 3(a) (even if not surrendered) as of immediately before its expiration determined in accordance with Section
2. For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock upon such expiration shall be determined
pursuant to Section 3(a). To the extent this Warrant or any portion hereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section
3(b), the Company agrees to promptly notify the Warrantholder of the number of shares of Common Stock if any, the Warrantholder
is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise, and to issue or cause its transfer agent to issue a certificate or a book-entry
credit to the Warrantholder evidencing such shares.

 

    4

     

    

 

 SECTION 4.    RESERVATION OF SHARES.

 

During the term of this Agreement, the Company
will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of
the rights to purchase Common Stock as provided for herein. If at any time during the term hereof the number of authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant in full, the Company will take such
corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be reasonably necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares
of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

 

 SECTION 5.    NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP.

 

No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

 

 SECTION 6.    NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER.

 

Without limitation of any provision hereof,
the Warrantholder agrees that this Agreement does not entitle the Warrantholder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder
of the Company prior to the exercise of any of the purchase rights set forth in this Agreement.

 

 SECTION 7.    THE WARRANTHOLDER REGISTRY.

 

The Company shall maintain a registry showing
the name and address of the registered holder of this Agreement. The Warrantholder's initial address, for purposes of such registry,
is set forth in Section 12(g) below. The Warrantholder may change such address by giving written notice of such changed address
to the Company.

 

 SECTION 8.    ADJUSTMENT RIGHTS.

 

The Exercise Price and the number of shares
of Common Stock purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time, as follows:

 

(a)             
Merger Event. In connection with a Merger Event that is a Liquid Sale, this Warrant shall, on and after the closing
thereof, automatically and without further action on the part of any party or other person, represent the right to receive the
consideration payable on or in respect of all shares of Common Stock that are issuable hereunder as of immediately prior to the
closing of such Merger Event less the Purchase Price for all such shares of Common Stock (such consideration to include both the
consideration payable at the closing of such Merger Event and all deferred consideration payable thereafter, if any, including,
but not limited to, payments of amounts deposited at such closing into escrow and payments in the nature of earn-outs, milestone
payments or other performance-based payments), and such Merger Event consideration shall be paid to the Warrantholder as and when
it is paid to the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. In connection with a Merger Event that is not a Liquid Sale,
the Company shall cause the successor or surviving entity to assume this Warrant and the obligations of the Company hereunder on
the closing thereof, and thereafter this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same number and type of securities or other property
as the Warrantholder would have received in consideration for the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder had it exercised this
Warrant in full as of immediately prior to such closing, at an aggregate Exercise Price no greater than the aggregate Exercise
Price in effect as of immediately prior to such closing, and subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with
the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 8(a) shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

 

    5

     

    

 

(b)         
Reclassification of Shares. Except for Merger Events subject to Section 8(a), if the Company at any time shall, by
combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase
rights under this Agreement exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes of securities,
this Agreement shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as
the result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Agreement immediately
prior to such combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change. The provisions of this Section 8(b) shall similarly
apply to successive combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change.

 

(c)         
Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time shall combine or subdivide its Common Stock, (i)
in the case of a subdivision, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares for which this Warrant
is exercisable shall be proportionately increased, or (ii) in the case of a combination, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately
increased and the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately decreased.

 

(d)         
Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Agreement is outstanding and unexpired shall:

 

(i)        
pay a dividend with respect to the Common Stock payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall
be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend, to that price determined
by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of
which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B)
the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution,
and the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately increased; or

 

    6

     

    

 

(ii)       
make any other dividend or distribution on or with respect to Common Stock, except any dividend or distribution specifically
provided for in any other clause of this Section 8, then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that
the Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant a proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution
as though it were the holder of the Common Stock (or other stock for which the Common Stock is convertible) as of the record date
fixed for the determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution.

 

(e)         
Notice of Certain Events. If: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or distribution upon its outstanding Common
Stock, payable in stock, cash, property or other securities (provided that the Warrantholder in its capacity as lender under the
Loan Agreement consents to such dividend); (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common
Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) there shall be any Merger Event; or (iv) there shall be
any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall
give the Warrantholder notice thereof at the same time and in the same manner as it gives notice thereof to the holders of outstanding
Common Stock. In addition, if at any time the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities of any other class or classes
of securities of the Company for which this Warrant is then exercisable) outstanding is reduced such that the number of shares
of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall exceed five percent (5%) of the then outstanding
class of such securities, then, within three (3) business days of such event, the Company shall give the Warrantholder written
notice thereof.

 

 SECTION 9. REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

 

(a)          
Reservation of Common Stock. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock that may be issued
upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid
and non-assessable, and will be free of any taxes, liens, charges or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever; provided, that the
Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities
laws. The Company has made available to the Warrantholder true, correct and complete copies of its Charter and bylaws currently
in effect. The issuance of certificates or book-entry credit for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
made without charge to the Warrantholder for any issuance tax in respect thereof, or other cost incurred by the Company in connection
with such exercise and related issuance of shares of Common Stock. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will,
at all times during the term hereof, have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of
Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

 

    7

     

    

 

(b)         
Due Authority. The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the performance of all obligations
of the Company hereunder, including the issuance to the Warrantholder of the right to acquire the shares of Common Stock, have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. This Agreement: (i) does not violate the Company's
Charter or current bylaws; (ii) does not contravene any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable to the Company;
and (iii) (except as may be described in Schedule 5.3 to the Loan Agreement), does not and will not contravene any provision of,
or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which
it is bound. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by general principles of equity,
regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

(c)         
Consents and Approvals. No consent or approval of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other
action in respect of any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery
and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

(d)

all such required reports, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to the information rights contained in Section 7.1(b) – (f)

been repaid. All information provided by the Company to the Warrantholder pursuant to this Section 9(e) shall constitute Confidential

 SECTION 10.            REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE WARRANTHOLDER.

 

This Agreement has been entered into by the
Company in reliance upon the following representations and covenants of the Warrantholder:

 

(a)          
Investment Purpose. This Warrant and the shares issued on exercise hereof will be acquired for investment and not
with a view to the sale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of applicable federal and state securities laws, and the
Warrantholder has no present intention of selling or engaging in any public distribution of the same except pursuant to an effective
registration statement or an exemption therefrom.

 

(b)          
Private Issue. The Warrantholder understands that (i) the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Agreement is
not, as of the Effective Date, registered under the Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws, and (ii) the Company’s
reliance on exemption from such registration is predicated on the representations set forth in this Section 10.

 

    9

     

    

 

(c)          
Financial Risk. The Warrantholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable
of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of its investment.

 

(d)         
Accredited Investor. The Warrantholder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of
Regulation D promulgated under the Act, as presently in effect (“Regulation D”).

 

(e)          
No Short Sales. The Warrantholder has not at any time on or prior to the Effective Date engaged in any short sales
or equivalent transactions in the Common Stock. The Warrantholder agrees that at all times from and after the Effective Date and
on or before the expiration or earlier termination of this Warrant, it shall not engage in any short sales or equivalent transactions
in the Common Stock.

 

 SECTION 11.           TRANSFERS.

 

Subject to compliance with applicable federal
and state securities laws, this Agreement and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, without charge to the
holder hereof (except for transfer taxes) upon surrender of this Agreement properly endorsed. Each taker and holder of this Agreement,
by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that this Agreement, when endorsed in blank, shall be deemed negotiable, and
that the holder hereof, when this Agreement shall have been so endorsed and its transfer recorded on the Company’s books,
shall be treated by the Company and all other persons dealing with this Agreement as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose
and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented by this Agreement. The transfer of this Agreement shall be recorded
on the books of the Company upon receipt by the Company of a notice of transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit III (the
 “Transfer Notice”), at its principal offices and the payment to the Company of all transfer taxes and other
governmental charges imposed on such transfer. Until the Company receives such Transfer Notice, the Company may treat the registered
owner hereof as the owner for all purposes. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any legend to the contrary, the Company shall
not require an opinion of counsel in connection with any sale, assignment or other transfer by the Warrantholder of this Warrant
(or any portion hereof or any interest herein) or of any shares of Common Stock issued upon any exercise hereof to an affiliate
(as defined in Regulation D) of the Warrantholder, provided that such affiliate is an “accredited investor” as defined
in Regulation D.

 

 SECTION 12.            MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a)          
Effective Date. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and shall be given effect in all respects as
if it had been executed and delivered by the Company on the date hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successors or
assigns of the Company.

 

    10

     

    

 

(b)         
Remedies. In the event of any default hereunder, the non-defaulting party may seek to protect and enforce its rights
either by suit in equity and/or by action at law, including but not limited to an action for damages as a result of any such default,
and/or an action for specific performance for any default where the Warrantholder will not have an adequate remedy at law and where
damages will not be readily ascertainable.

 

(c)          
No Impairment of Rights. The Company will not, by amendment of its Charter or through any other means, avoid or seek
to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the
carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the
rights of the Warrantholder against impairment.

 

(d)         
Additional Documents. The Company agrees to supply such other documents as the Warrantholder may from time to time
reasonably request.

 

(e)          
Attorneys’ Fees. In any litigation, arbitration or court proceeding between the Company and the Warrantholder
relating hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses and all
reasonable and documented costs of proceedings incurred in enforcing this Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 12(e), attorneys’
fees shall include without limitation fees incurred in connection with the following: (i) contempt proceedings; (ii) discovery;
(iii) any motion, proceeding or other activity of any kind in connection with an insolvency proceeding; (iv) garnishment, levy,
and debtor and third party examinations; and (v) post-judgment motions and proceedings of any kind, including without limitation
any activity taken to collect or enforce any judgment.

 

(f)          
Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired, and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and enforceable provision, which comes closest to the intention
of the parties underlying the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

(g)

of process or other communication that is required, contemplated, or permitted under this Agreement or with respect to the subject

(h)            
Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto
in respect of the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, letters,
negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. None of the
terms of this Agreement may be amended except by an instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.

 

    12

     

    

 

(i)           
Headings. The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning
or interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.

 

(j)           
Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed (or had an opportunity
to discuss) with its counsel this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 12(n), 12(o), 12(p), 12(q) and 12(r).

 

(k)          
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.

 

(l)           
No Waiver. No omission or delay by the Warrantholder at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to it, or
to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by the Company at any time designated, shall be a waiver
of any such right or remedy to which the Warrantholder is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of the Warrantholder
to enforce such provisions thereafter during the term of this Agreement.

 

(m)         
Survival. All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered
pursuant hereto shall be for the benefit of the Warrantholder or the Company, as the context requires, and shall survive the execution
and delivery of this Agreement and the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.

 

(n)          
Governing Law. This Agreement has been negotiated and delivered to the Warrantholder in the State of California,
and shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Warrantholder in the State of California. Delivery of Common Stock to the Warrantholder
by the Company under this Agreement is due in the State of California. This Agreement 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.

 

(o)         
Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. All judicial proceedings arising in or under or related to this Agreement may
be brought in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California. By execution and delivery
of this Agreement, each party hereto generally and unconditionally: (i) consents to personal jurisdiction in Santa Clara County,
State of California (solely with respect to matters arising under or relating to this Agreement); (ii) waives any objection as
to jurisdiction or venue in Santa Clara County, State of California; (iii) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction
or venue in the aforesaid courts; and (iv) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this
Agreement. 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 12(g), and shall be deemed effective and received
as set forth in Section 12(g). 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.

 

    13

     

    

 

(p)         
Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. 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 arising under or in connection with this Warrant
be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE WARRANTHOLDER 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 THE COMPANY AGAINST THE WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE OR BY THE WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE
AGAINST THE COMPANY RELATING TO THIS WARRANT. This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve persons or
entities other than the Company and the Warrantholder; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship
between the Company and the Warrantholder; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, specific performance, or any equitable
or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement.

 

(q)         
Arbitration. If the Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial set forth in Section 12(p) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties
agree that all Claims shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of JAMS (the
 “Rules”), such arbitration to occur before one arbitrator, which arbitrator shall be a retired California state judge
or a retired Federal court judge. Such proceeding shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, State of California, with California
rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on the parties,
and shall be final and nonappealable to the maximum extent permitted by law. Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered
in a court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by the prevailing party as a final judgment of such court.

 

(r)          
Pre-arbitration Relief. In the event Claims are to be resolved by arbitration, either party may seek from a court
of competent jurisdiction identified in Section 12(o), 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 binding arbitration.

 

    14

     

    

 

(s)         
Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number
of counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic delivery (PDF), 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.

 

(t)          
Specific Performance. The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which
will accrue to the Warrantholder by reason of the Company’s failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement
and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by the Warrantholder. If the Warrantholder institutes
any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought
hereby waives the claim or defense therein that the Warrantholder has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer
in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.

 

(u)         
Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company
may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include
the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.
Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen,
mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

(v)         
Legends. To the extent required by applicable laws, this Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder
(and the securities issuable, directly or indirectly, upon conversion of such shares of Common Stock, if any) may be imprinted
with a restricted securities legend in substantially the following form:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY”
LAWS AND MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED ONLY PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
UNDER THE ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF
THE ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”
