2.1.2 Procedures for Notes Issuance. Eargo shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed Issuance Request no later than
11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period permitted by the Administrative Agent and the Noteholders holding the applicable Commitments) prior to the First Tranche Closing Date or the Second Tranche Closing Date, as applicable,
with respect to the applicable Notes. Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such Issuance Request, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Noteholder of the proposed issuance. The Administrative Agent and each Noteholder
(A) may act without liability upon the basis of written or facsimile notice believed by the Administrative Agent or such Noteholder in good faith to be from Eargo (or from any Responsible Officer thereof designated in writing purportedly from
Eargo to the Administrative Agent or such Noteholder), (B) shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any Responsible Officer’s authority to request the purchase of Notes on behalf of Eargo until Administrative Agent or such Noteholder receives
written notice to the contrary, and (C) shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Issuance Request. 

2.1.3 Evidence of Debt; Register; Treatment of Interest; Notes. 

(a) Evidence of Debt. The Issuer shall maintain on its internal records in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the Obligations of Issuer to the Noteholders. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such
recordation, shall not in any manner affect Issuer’s Obligations in respect of any Notes; provided, further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Issuer’s records, the recordations in the Register
shall govern in the absence of manifest error. 
 (b) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Noteholders (including any successor or assign of any Noteholder), the Commitments, and the principal amounts of the Notes (and stated interest thereon) purchased by each Noteholder pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Issuer and any Noteholder at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. The Administrative Agent
shall record in the Register the Notes, each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Notes, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Issuer and each Noteholder, absent manifest error; provided, that failure to
make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Noteholder’s Obligations in respect of any Note. The Issuer hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as Issuer’s
non-fiduciary agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.1.3(b). 

(c) Treatment of Interest. The parties intend that any interest in or with respect to the Notes under this Agreement be treated as
being issued and maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any regulations thereunder (and any successor provisions), including under United States
Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) of Proposed Regulations Section 1.163-5 (and any successor provisions), and the provisions of this Agreement shall be
construed in a manner that gives effect to such intent. 

  
 4 

 (d) Exchange. Any Note may be exchanged at the option of any Noteholder holding such
Note for Notes of a like aggregate principal amount, but in different denominations, which in no event shall be less than $1,000. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, Eargo, at its expense, will execute and deliver the Notes that the
Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 (e) Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to Eargo, or if
any Note is lost or stolen and Eargo receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and the destruction, loss or theft of such Note, Eargo shall issue a replacement Note. If required by Eargo, an unsecured indemnity shall be supplied by the
applicable Noteholder that is sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Eargo to protect Eargo from any material loss that it may suffer if a Note is replaced. 

(f) Restrictive Securities Legend. Upon original issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Notes (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall bear the following legend: 

“THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). THE HOLDER MAY NOT OFFER, SELL,
TRANSFER, ASSIGN, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATE, OR OTHERWISE DISPOSE OF OR ENCUMBER THIS NOTE EXCEPT (I) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR PROSPECTUS UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER AND IN
COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, RESPECTIVELY, OR WITH AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION OR PROSPECTUS REQUIREMENT AND (II) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THAT CERTAIN NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED JUNE 24, 2022, AMONG THE
ISSUER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE NOTEHOLDERS PARTY THERETO AND THE OTHER PARTIES PARTY THERETO.” 
 2.2 Interest.

 (a) Interest Rate. Except as increased during an Event of Default pursuant to clause (d) below, interest shall be
payable on the principal amount of the Notes (including any PIK Interest and, to the extent not paid when due, the Repayment Value Excess) from the First Tranche Closing Date (with respect to the First Tranche Notes) or the Second Tranche Closing
Date (with respect to the Second Tranche Notes) to and including the date of repayment thereof at a rate of 12.00% per annum. 
 (b)
Interest Payment Dates. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on the first (1st) calendar day of each calendar quarter, on the Maturity Date and on any Optional Redemption Date (if applicable) (each, an “Interest Payment
Date”), and shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360)-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues. In computing interest, all
payments received after 1:00 p.m. New York time on any day shall be deemed received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. 

(c) PIK Interest. Other than on the Maturity Date or any Optional Redemption Date (if applicable), accrued interest shall be paid on
each Interest Payment Date by capitalizing on the applicable Interest Payment Date any accrued interest (all such accrued interest capitalized from time to time, “PIK Interest”) and adding such PIK Interest to the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes. PIK Interest which is added to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest in accordance with this Section 2.2 and shall otherwise be treated as principal of such
Notes for purposes of this Agreement, including being payable in cash in full on the Maturity Date and with respect to the accrual of interest on the PIK Interest amounts, in each case, through payment of the applicable Repayment Value. Accrued
interest payable pursuant hereto shall be paid in cash in full on the Maturity Date and on any Optional Redemption Date (if applicable), in each case, through payment of the applicable Repayment Value. 

  
 5 

 (d) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is twelve percent (12.0%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”, and any such interest “Default
Interest”). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Issuer pursuant to the Note Documents but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Notes. Payment or acceptance
of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.2(d) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or
remedies of the Secured Parties. 
 2.3 Fees. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or in a separate writing by the
applicable Secured Party, Issuer shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate, or repayment of any fees earned by such Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement. 

2.4 Payments; Application of Payments; Debit of Accounts. 

2.4.1 Payments on the Maturity Date. The Notes, together with all other amounts owed to the Noteholders hereunder with respect
thereto (including accrued interest pursuant to Section 2.2, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Notes which have been converted pursuant to Section 2.5 or redeemed pursuant to
Section 2.6), shall be paid in full in cash on the Maturity Date in the amount of the Repayment Value. The Repayment Value shall also be payable (without duplication) in connection with the acceleration of the Obligations
in accordance with Section 9 following the occurrence of any Event of Default (whether or not such payment occurs before or after (or as a result of) an Event of Default, acceleration or an insolvency proceeding). To the
extent that the Issuer fails to pay the Repayment Value when due pursuant to this Section 2.4.1, without waiving any rights or remedies of the Secured Parties, the Repayment Value Excess shall be capitalized and added to
the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, shall bear interest in accordance with Section 2.2, and shall otherwise be treated as principal of such Notes for purposes of this Agreement. 

2.4.2 No prepayments of the Notes shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Noteholder whose Notes are being prepaid,
except upon conversion pursuant to Section 2.5 in accordance with the terms thereof or upon redemption pursuant to Section 2.6 in accordance with the terms thereof. 

2.4.3 All payments related to the Notes to be made by Issuer under any Note Document shall be made to the Administrative Agent (or as
otherwise directed by the applicable Noteholder, so long as the Issuers provides written notice to the Administrative Agent that any such payment has been made and the amount thereof (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such notice of the Issuers in all respects, including, without limitation, with respect to updating the Register or calculating interest or other payments unless the applicable Noteholder notifies the
Administrative Agent within two (2) Business Days of the date that such payment was due that such payment was not received by it) for the account of the applicable Noteholder, in immediately available funds in Dollars, without setoff or
counterclaim except as otherwise contemplated by Section 2.7, before 1:00 p.m. New York time on the date when due. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 1:00 p.m. New York time shall be deemed received at the
opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be due the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid. 

  
 6 

 2.5 Conversion and Redemption of Notes Upon Rights Offering. 

2.5.1 Rights Offering. As soon as practicable following the Stockholders Meeting and in any event within one hundred eighty
(180) days of the First Tranche Closing, but only if the Stockholder Approvals are obtained, Eargo shall take all necessary action to initiate, execute and consummate a Rights Offering. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the Rights
Offering shall include Rights to purchase 375,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a Rights Offering Price of $0.50 per share, adjusted as needed pursuant to Section 2.5.4 or 2.5.5 below. Eargo shall provide the
Noteholders and their counsel with reasonable opportunity (in the case of draft filings with the SEC, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such filing) to review and comment on drafts of the disclosure, transaction and other documentation
related to the Rights Offering and shall consider in good faith and incorporate reasonable comments from Noteholders and their counsel. 

2.5.2 Redemption and Conversion Between Five and Six Months. If a Rights Offering is consummated after the 150th day following the First Tranche Closing but on or prior to the 180th day following the First Tranche Closing, then, subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement, the Second Tranche Notes will be issued and (a) the total gross proceeds of the Rights Offering will be immediately used to repay in cash a portion of the Notes at the Repayment Value of the Notes to be redeemed, with
the principal amount of the Notes redeemed being equal to the total gross proceeds of the Rights Offering divided by 1.50, and (b) the remaining amount of the Notes (including any accrued interest or principal comprised of PIK Interest)
that are not redeemed in cash pursuant to clause (a) will immediately convert into a number of shares equal to 375,000,000 less the number of shares actually subscribed for and purchased in the Rights Offering. Attached hereto as
Annex I under the heading “$187.5 Million Rights Offering After Month Five” is an illustrative calculation of the foregoing. 

2.5.3 Redemption and Conversion Within Five Months. If a Rights Offering is consummated within one hundred fifty (150) days
following the First Tranche Closing, then the Notes will automatically convert into (i) a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 375,000,000 less the number of shares actually subscribed for and purchased with the Rights Offering, and
(ii) cash in an amount equal to (x) the Repayment Value of Notes outstanding less (y) the Rights Offering Shortfall Amount, which cash shall immediately be paid by the Issuer to the applicable Noteholders. The
“Rights Offering Shortfall Amount” shall be an amount equal to the product of (a) 375,000,000 less the number of shares of Common Stock subscribed for and actually purchased in the Rights Offering, multiplied by (b)
$0.50. Attached hereto as Annex I under the heading “$187.5 Million Rights Offering Before Month Five” is an illustrative calculation of the foregoing. 

2.5.4 Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If Eargo shall at any time or from time to time prior to the Rights
Offering, subdivide the shares of Common Stock as to which the Notes may be converted into pursuant to Section 2.5.2 or Section 2.5.3 (such shares, the “Conversion Shares”), by
stock dividend, stock split or otherwise, or combine the Conversion Shares, the Rights Offering Price and number of Rights subject to the Rights Offering shall be adjusted such that the total potential gross proceeds from the Rights Offering is the
same and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon any such conversion shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of such subdivision, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Any adjustment under this
Section 2.5.4 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. Eargo shall provide Administrative Agent and the Noteholders written notice within ten
(10) Business Days after any such subdivision or combination together with copies of duly executed documents evidencing the same from Eargo or its successor. 

2.5.5 Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in
the capital stock of Issuer (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination provided for in Section 2.5.4 above) at any time or from time to time prior to the date of the consummation of the Rights Offering, then,
as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Noteholders so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any
shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon conversion pursuant to Section 2.5.2 or Section 2.5.3, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Rights Offering Price and
number of Rights to be issued in the Rights Offering such that the total potential gross proceeds from the Rights Offering are the same. Eargo shall provide the Noteholders written notice within ten (10) Business Days after any such
reclassification, reorganization or change, together with copies of duly executed documents evidencing the same from Eargo or its successor. 

  
 7 

 2.5.6 No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued pursuant to Section 2.5.2 or Section 2.5.3, but in lieu of such fractional shares Eargo shall make a cash payment therefor to the Noteholders equal to
the Rights Offering Price multiplied by such fraction. 
 2.5.7 Stockholder Approval; Authorized Shares; Listing
Matters. Eargo shall take all action necessary to hold a meeting of its stockholders within one hundred twenty (120) days of the First Tranche Closing (the “Stockholders Meeting”) and shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause to be obtained the Stockholder Approvals at the Stockholders Meeting. Thereafter, so long as the Notes are outstanding, Eargo shall take all action necessary, including amending Eargo’s governing documents to authorize and
reserve and keep reserved the requisite number of shares of capital stock such that the requisite number of shares of Common Stock shall be duly and validly authorized, reserved (to the extent applicable) and available for issuance at the time of
the conversion of the Notes, as applicable, and upon issuance in accordance with the terms hereof, as applicable, the Conversion Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of restrictions on transfer, other than
restrictions on transfer set forth in (w) the Investor Rights Agreement, as applicable, (x) Eargo’s governing documents, (y) applicable federal and state securities Laws or (z) liens or encumbrances created by or imposed by
the Investors. Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) obtain any approvals of Nasdaq necessary for the issuance of the Conversion Shares and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement,
including to cause the Conversion Shares to be approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, and (b) maintain the listing of all of its shares of Common Stock, including the Conversion Shares. Eargo shall pay all fees
and expenses in connection with satisfying the obligations under this Section 2.5.8. 
 2.5.8 Antitrust
Approvals. If any notifications, filings or approvals are required to be obtained under any Antitrust Laws that are applicable to the conversion of the Notes pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.5.2 or
Section 2.5.3, then each of Eargo and the applicable Noteholders shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or desirable under
any applicable Laws to make such notifications or filings and to obtain such approvals as promptly as reasonably practicable. In such event, each of Eargo and the applicable Noteholders shall cooperate with the other party’s legal advisors in
the preparation and filing of any documentation, notifications, filings, registrations, submissions and other materials required or necessary under any applicable Antitrust Law and providing, within a reasonable time, all documents and information
necessary to prepare and make any such filing. Eargo and the applicable Noteholders shall timely provide all information, documents and statements required by the applicable Governmental Authorities for the analysis of any such filing. All filings
made pursuant to any applicable Antitrust Laws shall be made in substantial compliance with the requirements of such Antitrust Laws and any other applicable Laws. To the extent available, each of Eargo and the applicable Noteholders shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause any required filings under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and any other applicable Antitrust Laws to be considered for
grant of “early termination” or the equivalent thereof. Eargo and the applicable Noteholders shall cooperate with each other in connection with the foregoing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of any
Governmental Authority under any applicable Antitrust Law. The parties acknowledge and agree that no conversion of Notes into Common Stock will be consummated until any waiting period prescribed under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act
of 1976, as amended, or any other applicable Antitrust Law has elapsed. 

  
 8 

 2.5.9 Upon the consummation of the Rights Offering, each Noteholder shall present its
Note to the Issuer for cancellation and the Issuer shall cancel such Note as of the date of the consummation of the Rights Offering. 

2.5.10 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, other than as set forth in the second sentence of this
Section 2.5.10, the Administrative Agent shall have no duties under this Section 2.5 and shall have no responsibility or obligation, or be deemed to have any knowledge, with respect to the Rights
Offering (including, without limitation, Annex I hereto) or the calculation of any amounts related thereto or any other matter described in this Section 2.5 or in the definition of Second Tranche Commitment. The
Issuer and the Noteholders shall, jointly upon the consummation of the Rights Offering, direct the Administrative Agent to update the Register to reflect the cancellation of the Notes of such Noteholders specified in such direction, and the
Administrative Agent shall so update the Register in conclusive reliance upon such direction. 
 2.6 Optional Redemption. The
Issuer may, at its option, repay all (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not a portion) of the Notes outstanding upon three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent (with the consent of the Required Noteholders)
may agree) prior written notice to the Administrative Agent at a price equal to the Repayment Value of the Notes outstanding (the date of such redemption, the “Optional Redemption Date”). 

2.7 Withholding. 

2.7.1 Payments received (or deemed for applicable tax purposes to be received or accrued) by any Secured Party from the Issuer under
this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority (including any
interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto) (collectively, “Taxes”), except as required by applicable Law. Specifically, however, if at any time any Governmental Authority, applicable Law, regulation or international
agreement requires Issuer or the Administrative Agent to make any withholding or deduction from any such payment or other sum payable hereunder to any Secured Party (or requires a Secured Party to make any withholding or deduction from a direct or
indirect owner of a Secured Party in respect of any such payment or accrual), the Issuer hereby covenants and agrees that (a) if such withheld or deducted Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the amount due from Issuer with respect to such payment or
other sum payable hereunder will be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such required withholding or deduction, such Secured Party (and each such direct or indirect owner of a Secured Party) receives a net sum equal
to the sum which it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required, and (b) Issuer or any other applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted by Issuer or such other applicable withholding
agent, as applicable, to the relevant Governmental Authority. 
 2.7.2 The Issuer will, upon request, furnish any Secured Party with
proof reasonably satisfactory to such Secured Party indicating that the Issuer has made such withholding payment. 
 2.7.3 The Issuer
shall indemnify each Secured Party (or direct or indirect owner of a Secured Party) within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes described in this section (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Secured Party (or by a direct or indirect owner of a Secured Party) or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment or accrual to such Secured Party (or
in respect of any payment or accrual to a direct or indirect owner of a Secured Party) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Issuer by a Secured Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Noteholder,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

in this Section 2.7.4(c) (other than the documentation set forth in Section 2.7.4(a) or (b)) shall not be required if in the applicable Noteholder’s reasonable judgment such completion,
execution or submission would subject such Noteholder to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or would require the Noteholder to disclose the identity of its direct
or indirect investors.

otherwise has a valid and enforceable right to use all Intellectual Property used in its business, except where the failure to own or have the right to use such Intellectual Property would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. To Issuer’s knowledge, each registration for Intellectual Property which it owns or purports to own and which is material to Issuer’s business is subsisting, valid and enforceable, and no part of the
Intellectual Property which Issuer owns or purports to own and which is material to Issuer’s business has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part. To the best of Issuer’s knowledge, no claim has been made or threatened
that any part of the Intellectual Property infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

this Agreement creates in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a valid and, together with such filings, perfected, so far as perfection is possible under relevant Laws through making such filings, first priority
security interest in such Collateral of the Issuer (subject to Permitted Liens), securing the payment of the Obligations and (ii) the taking of possession or control by the Administrative Agent of the Collateral with respect to which a security
interest may be perfected only by possession or control, all actions necessary to perfect the security interest, so far as perfection is possible under relevant Laws, in such Collateral of the Issuer created under this Agreement with respect to
which a Lien may be perfected by taking of possession or control shall have been duly made or taken, and this Agreement creates in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a valid and, together with possession or
control so far as perfection is possible under relevant Laws through such possession or control, first priority security interest in such Collateral of the Issuer (subject to Permitted Liens), securing the payment of the Obligations. 

(f) The Issuer represents and warrants that all certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the equity interests constituting
Collateral in existence on the date hereof have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in suitable form for transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed undated instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, and that (assuming
continuing possession by the Administrative Agent) the Administrative Agent has a perfected first priority security interest therein. 

5.3 Litigation. Except as set forth in Section 5.3 of the Disclosure Schedule or other than those of
which Issuer has notified the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.2(i), there are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer, threatened in writing by or against the Issuer that
could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Issuer involving more than, individually or in the aggregate, $250,000. Neither the Issuer nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree,
ruling or decision of any court, commission, board or other government agency that is expressly applicable to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, which would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 5.4 Financial Statements; Financial Condition. All consolidated financial statements for the Issuer delivered to
the Noteholders fairly present in all material respects Issuer’s consolidated financial condition and Issuer’s consolidated results of operations as of the dates and for the periods set forth therein. There has not been any material
deterioration in Issuer’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agent or otherwise filed with the SEC. 

5.5 Solvency. The fair salable value of Issuer’s consolidated assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds
the fair value of Issuer’s liabilities. Issuer is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and Issuer is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature (“Solvent”). The
Noteholders have provided the Issuer with reasonably equivalent value with respect to the Collateral and the Liens and security interests granted hereunder. The Repayment Value Excess shall be disregarded for purposes of any determination made
pursuant the first sentence of this Section 5.5.

 5.6 Regulatory Compliance. Issuer is not, and immediately after giving effect

company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Issuer is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of
Governors). Except as set forth in Section 5.6 of the Disclosure Schedule, Issuer (a) has complied in all material respects with all Requirements of Law, and (b) has not violated any Requirements of Law the
violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of Issuer’s properties or assets has been used by Issuer or, to the best of Issuer’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing,
treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than in compliance in all material respects with Requirements of Law. The Issuer 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 to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.7 Subsidiaries; Investments. The Issuer does not own any stock, partnership, or other ownership interest or other equity
securities except for Permitted Investments. The Issuer, directly or indirectly, owns of record and beneficially free and clear of all Liens, all of the issued and outstanding capital stock or equity interests of each of its Subsidiaries. All of the
issued and outstanding capital stock or equity interest of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries has been duly authorized and validly issued, and in the case of corporations, is fully paid and non-assessable. There
are no outstanding rights, options, warrants, preemptive rights, conversion rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights for the purchase or acquisition from any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries of any securities of such Subsidiaries nor are
there any commitments to issue or execute any such rights, options, warrants, preemptive rights, conversion rights or rights of first refusal. 

5.8 Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions. The Issuer is not a U.S. real property holding corporation within the
meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the IRC. Except as set forth in Section 5.8 of the Disclosure Schedule, the Issuer has timely filed (taking into account valid extensions to file) all required tax returns and reports,
and Issuer has timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Issuer except (a) to the extent such taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted
and diligently conducted, so long as such reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor, or (b) if such taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions do not,
individually or in the aggregate, exceed $150,000. 
 To the extent Issuer defers payment of any contested taxes, Issuer shall
(i) notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, and (ii) post bonds or take any other steps reasonably required to prevent the governmental authority levying such
contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is more than $150,000 (other than a Permitted Lien). Issuer is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Issuer’s prior tax years which could result in
additional taxes becoming due and payable by Issuer in excess of $150,000. Issuer has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Issuer has not withdrawn
from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any material liability of Issuer,
including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency. 
 5.9 Use
of Proceeds. Issuer shall use the proceeds of the Notes solely as working capital, to fund its general business requirements and to repay Indebtedness of the Issuer outstanding pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement, and not for personal,
family, household or agricultural purposes.

posts such documents to EDGAR (or such other free, publicly-accessible internet database that may be established and maintained by the SEC as a substitute for or successor to EDGAR), in each case of clauses (x) and (y), so long as
the Issuer immediately notifies the Administrative Agent and the Noteholders in writing (which may be by electronic mail) of the posting of any such documents and provides a link thereto.

such payments, and pay all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms. 

6.5 Insurance. 

(a) Keep its business and the Collateral insured for risks in amounts standard for companies in the Issuer’s industry and location and as
the Required Noteholders may reasonably request. Insurance policies shall be in a form, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies that are not Affiliates of Issuer, and in amounts that are reasonably satisfactory to the Required
Noteholders. All property policies shall have a lender’s loss payable endorsement showing the Administrative Agent as the sole loss payee. All liability policies shall show, or have endorsements showing, the Administrative Agent as an
additional insured. The Administrative Agent shall be named as loss payee and/or additional insured with respect to any such insurance providing coverage in respect of any Collateral. 

  
 28 

 (b) Ensure that proceeds payable under any property policy are, at the Noteholders’
option, payable to the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer shall have the option of applying the proceeds of any
casualty policy up to $500,000 with respect to any loss, but not exceeding $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all losses under all casualty policies in any one year, toward the replacement or repair of destroyed or damaged property, provided
that any such replaced or repaired Collateral (A) shall be of equal or like value as the replaced or repaired Collateral and (B) shall be deemed Collateral in which the Administrative Agent has been granted a first priority security
interest (subject to Permitted Liens) and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds payable under such casualty policy shall, at the option of Noteholders, be payable to the Administrative Agent
on account of the Obligations. 
 (c) At the Administrative Agent’s request (at the direction of the Required Noteholders), the Issuer
shall deliver certified copies of insurance policies and evidence of all premium payments. Each provider of any such insurance required under this Section 6.5 shall agree, by endorsement upon the policy or policies issued
by it or by independent instruments furnished to the Administrative Agent, that it will give the Administrative Agent thirty (30) days prior written notice (or ten (10) days for cancellation as a result of nonpayment of premium) before any
such policy or policies shall be canceled. If the Issuer fails to obtain insurance as required under this Section 6.5 or to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons and the Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent or the Required Noteholders may make all or part of such payment or obtain such insurance policies required in this Section 6.5 and take any action, or direct the Administrative Agent to take
any action, under the policies that the Required Noteholders deem prudent. 
 6.6 Operating Accounts. For each Collateral
Account that the Issuer at any time maintains, the Issuer shall cause the applicable bank or financial institution at or with which any Collateral Account is maintained to execute and deliver a Control Agreement with respect to such Collateral
Account to perfect the Administrative Agent’s Lien in such Collateral Account in accordance with the terms hereunder, which Control Agreement may not be terminated without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (acting at the
direction of the Required Noteholders); provided, that, with respect to any Collateral Account existing on the Closing Date, the Issuer shall not be considered to have breached this Section 6.6 until the date that is
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date (or such later date as is approved in writing by the Required Noteholders). The provisions of the previous sentence shall not apply to (a) deposit accounts exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes
and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of the Issuer’s employees and identified to the Administrative Agent by the Issuer as such and (b) accounts that are maintained at all times on a “zero balance”
basis. The Issuer shall also be permitted to maintain merchant accounts (including Stripe, Ally Financial, Bread, PayPal, CareCredit, LLC, CyberSource / Visa and Covered Care (the foregoing being as described in the Perfection Certificate)
(collectively, the “Merchant Accounts”)), provided that Merchant Accounts shall automatically sweep on a daily basis to a Collateral Account subject to a Control Agreement. 

6.7 Cash Management. Maintain cash and Cash Equivalents on deposit in Collateral Accounts (which, for the avoidance of doubt,
are subject to Control Agreements in accordance with Section 6.6) in an aggregate amount of no less than $40,000,000 at all times. The Issuer agrees, at any time and from time to time, upon the request of the Required
Noteholders, to provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Person or Persons of the Issuer’s compliance with this Section 6.7.

account the projected cost of such proceedings versus the expected benefit thereof), by initiating opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties, (ii) maintain and protect the secrecy or confidentiality of its
material Trade Secrets and (iii) otherwise protect, defend and preserve Issuer’s rights in, and the validity or enforceability of, its material Intellectual Property.

other similar governmental body) that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the value of, or the Administrative Agent’s ability to dispose of its rights and remedies related to, Issuer’s Intellectual Property, and
take such actions that, in Issuer’s commercially reasonable business judgment, are reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property (including collecting damages for such infringement, misappropriation or
other violation). 
 (c) Not allow any Intellectual Property material to Issuer’s business to lapse or be abandoned, forfeited or
dedicated to the public without the Required Noteholder’s prior written consent.

Patent, registered Trademark, registered Copyright, registered mask work, registered Domain Name or any pending application for any of the foregoing, as owner or an exclusive licensee or (ii) applies for any Patent or the registration of any
Trademark, Copyright or mask work, then the Issuer shall immediately provide written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and shall execute such intellectual property security agreements (or a supplement to the IP Agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to the Required Noteholders) and other documents and take such other actions as the Required Noteholders may request to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent in
such property. If the Issuer decides to register any Patent or Trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or Copyright or mask work with the United States Copyright Office, the Issuer shall: (x) provide the Administrative

property security agreement (or a supplement to the IP Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Noteholders) and such other documents and take such other actions as the Required Noteholders may request to perfect and maintain a
first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent in such Intellectual Property intended to be registered with the applicable office; and (z) record such intellectual property security agreement (or such supplement
to the IP Agreement) with the applicable office contemporaneously with the filing of the Intellectual Property with the applicable office. The Issuer shall promptly provide to the Administrative Agent copies of all applications that it files for
Patents or for the registration of Trademarks or Copyrights or mask works, together with evidence of the recording of the intellectual property security agreement required for the perfection or maintenance of perfection of the Administrative
Agent’s first priority perfected security interest in such property.

continuing, in which case, the foregoing may occur as often as the Administrative Agent or such Noteholder reasonably deems necessary) and shall be at Issuer’s expense.

not limited to) determinations in respect of interest accruals or payments on the Notes and a conversion, redemption, sale or exchange, or other disposition of the Note, in whole or in part. The Noteholders, in making such determination, shall
in good faith consult with the Issuer and consider any comments from the Issuer regarding such determination. The parties hereto agree to treat and report the Notes consistent therewith in any and all filings with any U.S. federal, state or local
taxing authority, except as required by a “determination” within the meaning of IRC section 1313(a) (or similar state or local tax provision). The inclusion of this Section 6.14 is not an admission by any
Noteholder that it is subject to United States taxation. The Issuer and the Noteholders agree that this Section 6.14 shall survive termination of this Agreement and/or the repayment or conversion of the Notes, and, to the
extent that any Noteholder no longer constitutes a “Noteholder” after the date hereof, such Noteholder shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 6.14.

(f) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. The Administrative
Agent is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable (until termination of this Agreement) license or other right to use, without charge, Issuer’s
labels, Intellectual Property, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral or, otherwise in connection with the Administrative
Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, provided that the Issuer’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to the Administrative Agent’s benefit; 

(g) deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or
similar agreements providing control of any Collateral; 
 (h) demand and receive possession of the Issuer’s Books; and 

(i) exercise all rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent under the Note Documents or at Law or equity, including all
remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof). 
 9.2 Repayment Value. 

(a) The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that the Repayment Value is not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Issuer for
any such redemption, prepayment, repayment or other event or occurrence. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement
or any other Note Document, it is understood and agreed that if the Obligations are accelerated as a result of the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default (including as a result of the commencement of any insolvency proceeding or by
operation of Law or otherwise), the Repayment Value determined as of the date of such acceleration will also be due and payable (without duplication of any other Obligations) and will be treated and deemed as though the Notes were redeemed as of
such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations for all purposes herein. 

  
 37 

 (c) The Repayment Value shall be presumed to be equal to the liquidated damages sustained by
the Noteholders as the result of the occurrence of such acceleration, and the Issuer agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Repayment Value shall also be payable in the event the Obligations are satisfied or
released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. THE ISSUER EXPRESSLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR
LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE ACCRUAL OR COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING REPAYMENT VALUE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Issuer expressly agrees that (i) the Repayment Value is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s
length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the Repayment Value shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) there has been a course of
conduct between the Noteholders and the Issuer giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Repayment Value, (iv) the Issuer shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this
Section 9.2, (v) the agreement to pay the Repayment Value is a material inducement to the Noteholders to purchase the Notes, and (vi) the Repayment Value represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of
the lost profits or damages of the Noteholders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Noteholders or profits lost by the Noteholders as a result of any acceleration. 

9.3 Power of Attorney. The Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints (without obligation) the Administrative Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse the Issuer’s name on any checks or other forms
of payment or security; (b) sign the Issuer’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for
amounts and on terms the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders) determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under the Issuer’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any
Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of the
Administrative Agent or a third party as the Code permits. The Issuer hereby appoints (without obligation) the Administrative Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to
sign the Issuer’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other
than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in full in cash and the Commitments have been terminated. The Administrative Agent’s foregoing appointment as the Issuer’s attorney in fact, and all of the Administrative
Agent’s rights and powers are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid in cash and all Commitments have been terminated. The powers conferred on the
Administrative Agent under this Section 9.3 are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such
powers. 
 9.4 Protective Payments. If the Issuer fails to obtain the insurance called for by
Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which the Issuer is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Note Document or which may be required to preserve the Collateral, the
Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders) may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid shall be immediately due and payable in cash, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to
the Obligations and secured by the Collateral. The Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders) will make reasonable efforts to provide the Issuer with notice of the Administrative Agent obtaining such insurance. No
payments by the Administrative Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or the Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s waiver of any Event of Default. 

  
 38 

 9.5 Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default. If an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (upon the direction of the Required Noteholders), after payment of any fees, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and any other Note
Document, to apply in any order any funds in its possession, whether from the Issuer’s account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the
Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall pay any surplus to the Issuer by credit to a deposit account designated in writing by the Issuer to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Issuer shall remain liable to the
Administrative Agent for any deficiency. If the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders), directly or indirectly, enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of
Collateral, the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders) shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of
the Obligations (other than Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent) until the actual receipt by the Administrative Agent of cash therefor. 

9.6 Administrative Agent’s Liability for Collateral. So long as the Administrative Agent deals with the Collateral in its
possession in the same manner as it deals with similar property held by it as a third party agent, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the
Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. The Issuer bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral. 

9.7 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s failure, at any time or
times, to require strict performance by the Issuer of any provision of this Agreement or any other Note Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party thereafter to demand strict
performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Noteholders) and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for
which it is given. The Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Note Documents are cumulative. The Administrative Agent and each Secured Party has all rights and remedies
provided under the Code, by Law, or in equity. The Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude the Administrative Agent from exercising any other remedy
under this Agreement or other remedy available at Law or in equity, and the Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. The Administrative Agent’s or any other Secured
Party’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. 
 9.8 Demand Waiver. Except as
otherwise set forth in the Note Documents, the Issuer waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts,
documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by the Administrative Agent on which the Issuer is liable. 
 9.9
Issuer Liability. Each Issuer hereby appoints each other Issuer as agent for such appointing Issuer for all purposes hereunder. Each Issuer hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Obligations, regardless of which
Issuer actually receives the proceeds of any Notes, as if each Issuer directly received all such proceeds. Each Issuer waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to such Issuer under the Code or any other applicable Law, including the benefit
of California Civil Code Section 2815 permitting revocation as to future transactions and the benefit of California Civil Code Sections 1432, 

  
 39 

 
2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, and 2899 and 3433, and (b) any right to require the Administrative Agent to: (i) proceed against any Issuer or any other Person;
(ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. The Administrative Agent may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Issuer or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose
by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Issuer’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, each Issuer irrevocably waives all rights that
it may have at Law or in equity (including any Law subrogating the Issuer to the rights of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Issuer or any other
Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by the such Issuer with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit
from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by such Issuer with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or
any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void. If any payment is made to an Issuer in contravention of this Section, such Issuer shall hold such payment in trust for the Administrative Agent and, at the election of the
Noteholders, such payment shall be promptly delivered to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 

9.10 Pledged Equity; Voting. 

(a) The Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders) shall have the right, at any time upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, without notice to the Issuer, to endorse, assign or otherwise transfer to or to register in the name of the Administrative Agent or any of its nominees or endorse for negotiation any or all of the
equity interests constituting Collateral, without any indication that such equity interests are subject to the security interest hereunder, and the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders) shall have the right to
exchange certificates representing or evidencing such Equity Interests for certificates of smaller or larger denominations. 
 (b) The
Administrative Agent and the Noteholders agree that, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Issuer may, to the extent the Issuer has such right as a holder of the Collateral consisting of equity interests or other
securities or Indebtedness owed by any obligor, vote and give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect thereto, except to the extent that any such vote, consent, ratification or waiver would diminish the value thereof as Collateral or which
would result in any violation of any provision of this Agreement or the other Note Documents. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent and the
Noteholders agree that the Issuer may, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, receive and retain all distributions with respect to the Collateral consisting of equity interests or other securities or indebtedness owed by
any obligor; provided, however, that any and all such distributions consisting of securities that would otherwise constitute Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and be promptly (but in any
event within five (5) Business Days after receipt thereof) delivered to the Administrative Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). 

  
 40 

 (d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default: 

(i) all rights of the Issuer to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to
Section 9.10(b) shall immediately cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights; and 

(ii) all rights of the Issuer to receive distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to
Section 9.10(c) shall immediately cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole right to receive and hold such distributions as Collateral. 

10. NOTICES 
 All
notices, consents, requests, approvals, demands, or other communication by any party to this Agreement or any other Note Document must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of
actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, registered or certified mail return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (b) upon transmission, when sent by electronic mail; (c) one

 11. CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE 

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the state of New York, without giving effect to any
choice of Law or conflict of Law rules or provisions (whether of the state of New York) or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the applicable of the Laws of any other jurisdiction other than the state of New York. Each party hereto submits to
the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in New York County, New York; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude any Secured Party from bringing suit or taking other
legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of such Secured Party. The Issuer expressly submits and consents in advance to such
jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and the Issuer hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such
legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. The Issuer hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other
process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Issuer at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by the Issuer in accordance with, Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be
deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of the Issuer’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid. 

  
 42 

 (b) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR
THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL. 
 (c) This
Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 12. GENERAL PROVISIONS 

12.1 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Generally. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. The Issuer may not
assign this Agreement or any other Note Document or any rights or obligations under such Note Document without the Noteholders’ prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in the Noteholders’ discretion). Each Noteholder has
the right, without the consent of or notice to Issuer, to sell, transfer, assign or grant participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Noteholder’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Note
Documents (including all or any portion of the Notes), pursuant to an assignment agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Required Noteholders; provided, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no
Noteholder shall consummate any such sale, transfer, assignment or grant prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, except as permitted under the Investor Rights Agreement;
provided, further, with respect to any participation by a Noteholder in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Noteholder’s obligations, rights, and benefits, (A) such Noteholder’s obligations under this Agreement
shall remain unchanged, (B) such Noteholder shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) the Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the other Noteholders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) Each
Noteholder that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuer, maintain a register complying with the requirements of Sections 163(f), 871(h) and 881(c)(2)
of the IRC and the Treasury regulations issued thereunder on which is entered the name and address of each participant described in Section 12.1(a) above and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
participant’s interest in the Notes or other obligations under the Note Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Issuer 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, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Note 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 the Code or Treasury Regulations, including Section 5f.103-1(c) of the
United States Treasury Regulations, or is otherwise required thereunder; provided, further, (A) such Noteholder’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Noteholder shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) the Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the other Noteholders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Noteholder in connection with such
Noteholder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Noteholder 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 Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility with respect to
any participation by a Noteholder, including, without limitation, for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 43 

 12.2 Indemnification. 

12.2.1 IN ADDITION TO THE PAYMENT OF EXPENSES PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.9, WHETHER OR NOT THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE CONSUMMATED, EACH ISSUER AGREES TO DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH NOTEHOLDER, THEIR AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, PARTNERS, MEMBERS, INVESTORS, ADVISORS, REPRESENTATIVES,
DIRECTORS, TRUSTEES, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS (EACH, AN “INDEMNITEE”), FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES; PROVIDED, NO ISSUER SHALL HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO ANY INDEMNITEE HEREUNDER WITH RESPECT TO ANY
INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES TO THE EXTENT SUCH INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES ARISE FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL,
NON-APPEALABLE ORDER, OF THAT INDEMNITEE. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE UNDERTAKINGS TO DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 12.2.1 MAY BE UNENFORCEABLE IN WHOLE OR
IN PART BECAUSE THEY ARE VIOLATIVE OF ANY LAW OR PUBLIC POLICY, THE ISSUER SHALL CONTRIBUTE THE MAXIMUM PORTION THAT IT IS PERMITTED TO PAY AND SATISFY UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, WITHOUT ANY FURTHER LIABILITY, TO THE PAYMENT AND SATISFACTION OF ALL
INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES INCURRED BY INDEMNITEES OR ANY OF THEM. THIS SECTION 12.2.1 SHALL NOT APPLY WITH RESPECT TO ANY TAXES, OTHER THAN ANY TAXES THAT REPRESENT LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, ETC. ARISING FROM ANY
NON-TAX CLAIM, WHICH SHALL BE EXCLUSIVELY GOVERNED BY SECTION 2.7.3. THE AGREEMENTS IN THIS SECTION 12.2.1 SHALL SURVIVE REPAYMENT OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS
PAYABLE UNDER THE NOTE DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 

12.2.2 To the extent permitted by applicable Law, no party hereto shall assert, and each other party hereto hereby waives, any claim
against any other party and such party’s respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or
not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Note Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Note or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each party hereto
hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim (for the sake of clarification amounts in respect of any damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party or for any out-of-pocket expenses shall be deemed to be direct, actual damages) or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 

12.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement. 

12.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the
enforceability of any provision. 
 12.5 Correction of Note Documents. The Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of
the Required Noteholders) may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Note Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties so long as the Administrative Agent provides Issuer with written notice of such correction and allows
Issuer at least five (5) days to object to such correction. In the event of such objection, such correction shall not be made except by an amendment signed by both the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Noteholders)
and Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to enter into any such amendment or make any such correction that affects its rights, obligations, protections, immunities or indemnities. 

  
 44 

 12.6 Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration. No purported amendment or
modification of any Note Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Note Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by the Issuer and the
Required Noteholders; provided that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Note Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any
other effect on any Note Document. Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence,
any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver. The Note Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties,
and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of the Note Documents merge into the Note Documents. 
 12.7
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email or other electronic means (including a “.pdf” or “.tif” file) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 12.8 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, each Secured Party shall exercise the same degree of care
that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to such Secured Party’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates, directors (or equivalent managers), officers, employees, independent auditors, or
other agents, experts and advisors, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Notes (provided, however, that such Secured Party shall use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain any prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by Law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to such Secured Party’s regulators or as
otherwise required in connection with such Secured Party’s examinations or audits; (e) as such Secured Party considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Note Documents or performing its obligations under the Note Documents; and
(f) to third-party service providers of such Secured Party so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with such Secured Party with terms no less restrictive than those
contained herein. Confidential information does not include information that is either: (i) in the public domain or in any Secured Party’s possession when disclosed to such Secured Party, or becomes part of the public domain (other than as
a result of its disclosure by such Secured Party in violation of this Agreement) after disclosure to any Secured Party or (ii) disclosed to any Secured Party by a third party, if such Secured Party does not know that the third party is
prohibited from disclosing the information. The Secured Parties and their Affiliates may use anonymous forms of confidential information for aggregate datasets, for analyses or reporting, and for any other uses not expressly prohibited in writing by
Issuer. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
 12.9 Expenses.
The Issuer agrees to pay the Administrative Agent such fees as set forth in the Agent Fee Letter. The Issuer agrees to pay promptly (and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days of the Administrative Agent’s or any Noteholder’s
request; provided, that any costs and expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date, the First Tranche Closing Date or the Second Tranche Closing Date shall be paid on the Closing Date, the First Tranche Closing Date or the Second Tranche
Closing Date to the extent invoiced on or prior to such date, as applicable) (a) all of Administrative Agent’s and the 

  
 45 

 
Noteholders’ reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of preparation of the Note Documents
and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (b) all the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, expenses and disbursements of one
primary external counsel to Administrative Agent (and, if necessary, any regulatory or subject matter expert counsel and one additional counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction) and one primary external counsel to the Noteholders (and, if
necessary, any regulatory or subject matter expert counsel and one additional counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Note Documents and any consents,
amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (c) all of the actual costs and documented out-of-pocket expenses of creating and perfecting Liens in favor of
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, including filing and recording fees, expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search fees, title insurance premiums and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, expenses and disbursements of one counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction providing customary legal opinions that Administrative Agent or Required Noteholders may request in respect
of the Collateral or the Liens created pursuant to the Collateral Documents; (d) all of Administrative Agent’s and the Noteholders’ reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket fees and expenses for, and disbursements of any of Administrative Agent’s auditors, accountants, consultants or appraisers; (e) all the actual,
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any appraisers, consultants, advisors and agents
employed or retained by Administrative Agent, the Noteholders and their respective counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the Collateral; (f) all the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and Noteholders in connection with the attendance at any meetings in connection with this Agreement and the other Note Documents; (g) all other
and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and the Noteholders in connection with the negotiation, preparation and
execution of the Note Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and the transactions contemplated thereby; and (h) all actual and documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs of settlement, incurred by Administrative Agent and Noteholders in enforcing any Obligations
of or in collecting any payments due from any Issuer hereunder or under the other Note Documents by reason of such Default or Event of Default (including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the
Collateral) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings or otherwise. The agreements in
this Section 12.9 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Note Documents, the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent.

of its Subsidiaries. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent agrees that, upon receipt of any notice, report, financial statement, certificate or
other written communication from the Issuer (other than such communications that that has been contemporaneously provided by the Issuer or such Subsidiary to the Noteholders or that has been deemed to have been delivered by posting on or provision

(b) Exculpatory Provisions. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be
liable to Noteholders or any other Person for any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the Note Documents except to the extent caused by the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order; provided that, no action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to and in
accordance with the direction of the Required Noteholders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any
action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Note Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until the Administrative Agent

exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions, and shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Note Documents in accordance with a request of
the Required Noteholders; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action at the direction of the Required Noteholders unless it is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent with respect thereto or that is contrary to this Agreement, any other Note Document or applicable Law. For purposes of clarity, but without limiting any rights, protections, immunities or indemnities afforded to the
Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Note Document, phrases such as “satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,” “approved by the Administrative Agent,” “acceptable to the Administrative Agent,” “as
determined by the Administrative Agent,” “in the Administrative Agent’s discretion,” “selected by the Administrative Agent,” “elected by the Administrative Agent,” “requested by the Administrative
Agent,” and phrases of similar import that authorize or permit the Administrative Agent to approve, disapprove, determine, act or decline to act in its discretion shall be subject to the Administrative Agent receiving written direction from the
Required Noteholders to take such action or to exercise such rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Note Documents shall require the Administrative Agent to exercise any discretionary acts. 

(c) Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely, and shall be
fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to conclusively rely and shall be protected in
relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Issuer and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Person shall have any right of action whatsoever against
Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Note Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Noteholders. 

(d) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be responsible in any manner for maintenance of any insurance required under this Agreement or any other Note Document or for the creation, perfection or priority of any

 49 

 (e) The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to ascertain or to inquire as
to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or the satisfaction of any conditions of, this Agreement or any other Note Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Issuer or any other Person.

part of the world or acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), civil or military disturbances or hostilities, nuclear or natural catastrophes, political unrest, explosion, earthquake, terrorism, fire, riot, labor disturbances,
strikes or work stoppages for any reason, embargo, epidemics or pandemics or other health crises, government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations or the like (whether domestic, federal, state, county or municipal or foreign) which

computer facilities, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility, or any other causes beyond the Administrative Agent’s control whether or not of the same class or kind as specified
above. 
 (g) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation,
its right to be indemnified, in this Agreement are extended to, and shall be enforceable: (i) by the Administrative Agent in each Note Document and any other document related hereto or thereto to which it is a party and (ii) the entity
serving as the Administrative Agent in each of its capacities hereunder and in each of its capacities under any Note Document whether or not specifically set forth therein and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder and
under any Note Document or related document, as the case may be. 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other
Note Document to the contrary, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable for confirming or monitoring any Issuer’s or any Noteholder’s compliance with state or federal securities laws, including without
limitation, (i) whether any Noteholder is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act, (ii) whether the Issuer or any Noteholder has complied with any transfer restrictions required by state
or federal securities laws, or (iii) whether any conditions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act have been complied with. 

13.3 General Immunity. 

(a) No Responsibility for Certain Matters. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Noteholder for the value,
execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or of any other Note Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral
statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to the Noteholders or by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Administrative Agent or any
Noteholder in connection with the Note Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of the Issuer or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall the Administrative
Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Note Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Notes or as to the
existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Notes or the
component amounts thereof. 

  
 50 

 (b) Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge
or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to Defaults or Events of Default in the payment of principal and interest required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Noteholders, unless
(x) Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Noteholder or the Issuer referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” or (y) an
officer of the Administrative Agent with direct responsibility for the administration of this Agreement has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. The Administrative Agent will notify the Noteholders of its receipt of any such notice
within one (1) Business Day of such receipt of such written notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any such Default or Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Noteholders (or such other Noteholders
as may be required to give such instructions pursuant to the terms hereof); provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)
take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable. 

13.4 Administrative Agent Entitled to Act as Noteholder. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the
rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Noteholder hereunder, if applicable. With respect to its participation in the Notes, the Administrative Agent shall have the
same rights and powers hereunder as any other Noteholder and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Noteholder” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise
indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other
business with the Issuer or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Issuer for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for
the same to Noteholders. 
 13.5 Right to Indemnity. EACH NOTEHOLDER, IN PROPORTION TO ITS PRO RATA SHARE, SEVERALLY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ITS AFFILIATES AND ITS RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, PARTNERS, DIRECTORS, TRUSTEES, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (EACH, AN “INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY”), TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY SHALL NOT
HAVE BEEN REIMBURSED BY THE ISSUER, FOR AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES (INCLUDING COUNSEL FEES AND DISBURSEMENTS) OR DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE
WHATSOEVER WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY IN EXERCISING ITS POWERS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OR PERFORMING ITS DUTIES HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS OR OTHERWISE IN ITS CAPACITY AS SUCH
INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY, OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH
INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY; PROVIDED, THAT NO NOTEHOLDER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY PORTION OF SUCH LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, 

  
 51 

 
ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES OR DISBURSEMENTS RESULTING FROM SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF
COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE ORDER. IF ANY INDEMNITY FURNISHED TO ANY INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY FOR ANY PURPOSE SHALL, IN THE OPINION OF SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY, BE INSUFFICIENT OR BECOME
IMPAIRED, SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY MAY CALL FOR ADDITIONAL INDEMNITY AND CEASE, OR NOT COMMENCE, TO DO THE ACTS INDEMNIFIED AGAINST UNTIL SUCH ADDITIONAL INDEMNITY IS FURNISHED; PROVIDED, IN NO EVENT SHALL THIS SENTENCE REQUIRE ANY
NOTEHOLDER TO INDEMNIFY ANY INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY AGAINST ANY LIABILITY, OBLIGATION, LOSS, DAMAGE, PENALTY, ACTION, JUDGMENT, SUIT, COST, EXPENSE OR DISBURSEMENT IN EXCESS OF SUCH NOTEHOLDER’S PRO RATA SHARE THEREOF; AND PROVIDED
FURTHER, THIS SENTENCE SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO REQUIRE ANY NOTEHOLDER TO INDEMNIFY ANY INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY AGAINST ANY LIABILITY, OBLIGATION, LOSS, DAMAGE, PENALTY, ACTION, JUDGMENT, SUIT, COST, EXPENSE OR DISBURSEMENT DESCRIBED IN THE
PROVISO IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE. THE AGREEMENTS IN THIS SECTION 13.5 SHALL SURVIVE REPAYMENT OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE UNDER THE NOTE DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 
 13.6 Successor Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving sixty (60) days’ (or such shorter period as shall be agreed by the
Required Noteholders) prior written notice thereof to the Noteholders and the Issuer. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Noteholders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Issuer, to appoint a
successor Administrative Agent subject (to the extent that such successor Administrative Agent is not a Noteholder or an Affiliate of an Noteholder and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) to the written consent of the
Issuer (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Noteholders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent
gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Noteholders appoint a successor Administrative Agent from among the Noteholders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Administrative Agent all sums, securities or equity interests and other items of Collateral in its possession, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in
connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Note Documents and (ii) at the reasonable request for the Issuer or the Required Noteholders, execute and deliver to such successor Administrative
Agent such amendments to financing statements (as prepared by the Issuer or the Required Noteholders), and take such other actions as reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Required Noteholders, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection
with the assignment to such successor Administrative Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent hereunder.

  
 52 

 (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its
rights and duties as the Administrative Agent, as applicable, hereunder to an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of, or prior written notice to, the Issuer or the Noteholders; provided that the Issuer and
the Noteholders may deem and treat such assigning Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent for all purposes hereof, unless and until such assigning Administrative Agent provides written notice to the Issuer and the Noteholders of such
assignment. Upon such assignment such Affiliate shall succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Note Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or in any related document, any corporation or entity into which the Administrative Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Administrative Agent shall be a party, or any corporation or entity succeeding to the business of the Administrative Agent shall be the successor of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under any related document to
which the Administrative Agent is a party without the execution or filing of any paper with any Person or any further act on the part of any Person. 

(c) The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other
Note Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of
its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Agreement shall apply to any of the Affiliates and
sub-agents of the Administrative Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative
Agent. All of the rights, benefits and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Agreement shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third party
beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights, benefits and privileges of a third party beneficiary, including an
independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Issuer and the
Noteholders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and
(iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to Administrative Agent and not to any Issuer, Noteholder or any other Person and no Issuer, Noteholder or any other Person shall have the rights, directly
or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent. 
 13.7
Collateral Documents. 
 (a) Administrative Agent under Collateral Documents. Each Noteholder hereby further authorizes the
Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral and the Collateral Documents. Without further written consent or
authorization from the Noteholders (other than as specified herein), the Administrative Agent may execute any documents or instruments prepared by the Issuer (and in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) necessary to release
any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted hereby or to which the Required Noteholders have otherwise consented. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any
other Note Document to the contrary, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to execute or deliver any document evidencing any release, subordination or reconveyance without receipt of a certificate executed by an authorized officer
of Eargo certifying that such release, subordination or re-conveyance, as applicable, complies with this Agreement and the Note Documents, and that all conditions precedent to such release, subordination or re-conveyance have been complied with. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Noteholders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release, subordinate or re-convey its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 13.7. 

  
 53 

 (b) Right to Realize on Collateral. Anything contained in any of the Note Documents
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer, other than as set forth in Section 12.16, the Administrative Agent and each Noteholder hereby agree that (i) no Noteholder shall have any right individually to realize upon
any of the Collateral, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Noteholders in accordance with the terms hereof, and all powers, rights and
remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or any sale of the
Collateral in a case under the Bankruptcy Code, the Administrative Agent or any Noteholder may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale, and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties
(but not any Noteholder or Noteholders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Noteholder shall otherwise agree in writing) (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) shall, at the direction of the
Required Noteholders, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any or all of the Obligations (other
than Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent) as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale 

13.8 Agency for Perfection. The Administrative Agent and each Noteholder hereby appoints each other Noteholder as agent
and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and Liens upon the Collateral in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, can be perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a secured
party with possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured party), and the Administrative Agent and each Noteholder hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the
benefit of the Secured Parties. Should any Noteholder obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Noteholder shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefore, shall deliver
such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions. In addition, Administrative Agent shall also have the power and authority hereunder to appoint such other
sub-agents as may be necessary or required under applicable state Law or otherwise to perform its duties and enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral and under the Note Documents. Each Issuer by its
execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing. 
 13.9 Reports and Other Information; Confidentiality;
Disclaimers. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Noteholder: 
 (a) is deemed to have requested that the Administrative
Agent furnish such Noteholder, promptly after it is received by the Administrative Agent from any Issuer, a copy of each audit, examination or report with respect to the Issuer or its Subsidiaries (each a “Report” and collectively,
“Reports”) prepared by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries at the request of the Administrative Agent shall so furnish each Noteholder with such Reports; 

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy
of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; 

  
 54 

 (c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or
examinations, that any party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon the Issuer and its Subsidiaries’ books and records, as well as on
representations of such Person’s personnel; 
 (d) agrees to keep all Reports and other material,
non-public information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with
Section 12.8; and

Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Administrative Agent and any other Noteholder preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Noteholder may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Noteholder may reach or draw
from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Noteholder has made or may make to the Issuer, or the indemnifying Noteholder’s participation in, or the indemnifying Noteholder’s purchase
of, a loan or loans or notes of the Issuer, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent, and any such other Noteholder preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages,
costs, expenses, and other amounts (including attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by Administrative Agent and any such other Noteholder preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any
Report through the indemnifying Noteholder. 
 13.10 Erroneous Payments. If a payment is made by the Administrative Agent (or
its Affiliates) in error (whether known to the recipient or not) or if a Noteholder or another recipient of funds is not otherwise entitled to receive such funds at such time of such payment or from such Person in accordance with the Note Documents,
then such Noteholder or recipient shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such payment that was made in error (or otherwise not intended (as determined by the Administrative Agent) to be received) in the amount
made available by the Administrative Agent (or its Affiliate) to such Noteholder or recipient. Each Noteholder and other party hereto waives the discharge for value defense in respect of any such payment. 

14. NOTEHOLDER REPRESENTATIONS.

INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT AGREEMENT 

This Indemnification and Advancement Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of ________ __, 2022 by and between Eargo, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ______________, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Indemnitee”). This Agreement supersedes and replaces any and all previous Agreements between the Company
and Indemnitee covering indemnification and advancement. 
 RECITALS 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) believes that highly competent persons have become more
reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors, officers, or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification and advancement of expenses against inordinate risks of
claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation; 
 WHEREAS, the Board has
determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain
liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends, such
insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to
expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself. The Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation of the Company require
indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company. Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). The Bylaws, Certificate of
Incorporation, and the DGCL expressly provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the board of directors, officers and
other persons with respect to indemnification and advancement of expenses; 
 WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance, to
indemnification, and to advancement of expenses may increase the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons; 
 WHEREAS, the Board
has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased
certainty of such protection in the future; 
 WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate
itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; 

 

 WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Bylaws, Certificate of
Incorporation and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and is not a substitute therefor, nor diminishes or abrogates any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and 

WHEREAS, Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the Bylaws, Certificate of Incorporation, DGCL and insurance as adequate in
the present circumstances, and may not be willing to serve or continue to serve as an officer or director without adequate additional protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee to serve or continue to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is
willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that Indemnitee be so indemnified and be advanced expenses. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree
as follows: 
 Section 1. Services to the Company. Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director of the Company. Indemnitee may at
any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by operation of law).

Owner (as defined below), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifteen percent (15%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities unless the change in relative beneficial
ownership of the Company’s securities by any Person results solely from a reduction in the aggregate number of outstanding shares of securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; 

ii. Change in Board of Directors. During any period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the execution
of this Agreement), individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director (other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in
Sections 2(b)(i), 2(b)(iii) or 2(b)(iv)) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in
office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; 

iii. Corporate Transactions. The effective date of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other entity, other than a merger
or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the
surviving entity) more than 51% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and with the power to elect at least a majority of the board of directors or
other governing body of such surviving entity;

Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its
favor. Pursuant to this Section 3, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other
charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any
claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal Proceeding had no reasonable cause to
believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. 
 Section 4. Indemnity in Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company.
The Company will indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in
its favor. Pursuant to this Section 4, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with
such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. The Company will not indemnify Indemnitee for
Expenses under this Section 4 related to any claim, issue or matter in a Proceeding for which Indemnitee has been finally adjudged by a court to be liable to the Company, unless, and only to the extent that, the Delaware Court or any court in
which the Proceeding was brought determines upon application by Indemnitee that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. 

Section 5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding the extent that Indemnitee is successful,
on the merits or otherwise. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company will indemnify
Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with or related to each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter to the fullest extent permitted by law. For purposes of
this Section 5 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, will be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter. In the event that any
Proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, suit or proceeding with or without payment of money or other
consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such action, suit or proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear
and convincing evidence.

 Section 6. Indemnification For Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with any
Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party but to which Indemnitee is a witness, deponent, interviewee, or otherwise asked to participate. 

Section 7. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the
Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. 

Section 8. Additional Indemnification. Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, the Company will indemnify
Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including but not limited to, the DGCL and any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of this Agreement that expand the Company’s ability to indemnify its
officers and directors) if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor). 

Section 9. Exclusions. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company is not obligated under this Agreement to make
any indemnification payment to Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding: 
 (a) for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf
of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except to the extent provided in Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and except with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity
provision; or 
 (b) for (i) an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of
securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law, (ii) any reimbursement of the Company by the Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or
equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by the Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the
Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of
Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) or (iii) any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any compensation pursuant to any compensation recoupment or clawback policy adopted by the Board or the compensation committee of the Board,
including but not limited to any such policy adopted to comply with stock exchange listing requirements implementing Section 10D of the Exchange Act; or 

  
 6 

 (c) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding)
initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Proceeding or part of any Proceeding is to enforce Indemnitee’s rights to indemnification or advancement, of Expenses,
including a Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement, (ii) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (iii) the Company provides
the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law. 
 Section 10.
Advances of Expenses. 
 (a) The Company will advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in
connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) not initiated by Indemnitee or any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee if (i) the Proceeding or part of any Proceeding is to enforce Indemnitee’s
rights to obtain indemnification or advancement of Expenses from the Company or Enterprise, including a proceeding initiated pursuant to Section 14 or (ii) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its
initiation. The Company will advance the Expenses within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding.

 (b) Advances will be unsecured and interest free. Indemnitee undertakes to repay the amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent
that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company, but that Indemnitee qualifies for advances upon the execution of this Agreement and delivery to the Company. No other form of undertaking is required
other than the execution of this Agreement. The Company will make advances without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions
of this Agreement. 
 (c) To the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board, the Company may at any time and from time to time
provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the
prior written consent of the Indemnitee. 
 (d) The Company shall not seek from a court, or agree to, a “bar order” which would
have the effect of prohibiting or limiting the Indemnitee’s rights to receive advancement of Expenses under this Agreement. 

Section 11. Procedure for Notification of Claim for Indemnification or Advancement. 

(a) Indemnitee will notify the Company in writing of any Proceeding with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or
advancement of Expenses hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof. Indemnitee will include in the written notification to the Company a description of the nature of the Proceeding and
the facts underlying the Proceeding and provide such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine 

  
 7 

 
whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such Proceeding. Indemnitee’s failure to notify the Company will not relieve the
Company from any obligation it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company will not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company will, promptly upon
receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification or advancement. 

(b) The Company will be entitled to participate in (but not control the defense with respect to) the Proceeding at its own expense. 

Section 12. Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification. 

(a) Unless a Change of Control has occurred, the determination of Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification will be made: 

i. by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board; 

ii. by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of
the Board; 
 iii. if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by written opinion provided
by Independent Counsel selected by the Board; or 
 iv. if so directed by the Board, by the stockholders of the Company. 

(b) If a Change in Control has occurred, the determination of Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification will be made by written opinion
provided by Independent Counsel selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee requests such selection be made by the Board). 
 (c) The party
selecting Independent Counsel pursuant to subsection (a)(iii) or (b) of this Section 12 will provide written notice of the selection to the other party. The notified party may, within ten (10) days after receiving written notice of
the selection of Independent Counsel, deliver to the selecting party a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not
meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection will set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so
selected will act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or the Delaware Court has
determined that such objection is without merit. If, within thirty (30) days after the later of submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof and the final disposition of the Proceeding,
Independent Counsel has not been selected or, if selected, any objection to has not been resolved, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Delaware Court for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by such court or by
such other person as such court designates. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel will be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in
such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing). 

  
 8 

 (d) Indemnitee will cooperate with the person, persons or entity making the determination
with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure
and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. The Company will advance and pay any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making the indemnification
determination irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. The Company promptly will advise Indemnitee in writing of the
determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied and providing a copy of any written opinion provided to the Board by Independent
Counsel. 
 (e) If it is determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company will make payment to Indemnitee within ten
(10) days after such determination. 
 Section 13. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings. 

(a) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such
determination will, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 11(a) of this
Agreement, and the Company will, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption. Neither the failure of the Company (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination
prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its
directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, will be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 

(b) If the determination of the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification has not made pursuant to Section 12 within sixty
(60) days after the latter of (i) receipt by the Company of Indemnitee’s request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a) and (ii) the final disposition of the Proceeding for which Indemnitee requested Indemnification
(the “Determination Period”), the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification will, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee will be entitled to such indemnification,
absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a
prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law. The Determination Period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to
entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, the Determination Period may be extended an additional fifteen
(15) days if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 12(a)(iv) of this Agreement; provided, that the Board will promptly cause a special meeting of the stockholders to be
convened and held for the purpose of making such determination. 

  
 9 

 (c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment,
order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a
presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause
to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. 
 (d) For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee will be deemed to
have acted in good faith if Indemnitee acted based on the records or books of account of the Company, its subsidiaries, or an Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors or officers of the
Company, its subsidiaries, or an Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Company, its subsidiaries, or an Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Company or an Enterprise by an
independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser, financial advisor or other expert selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company, its subsidiaries, or an Enterprise. Further, Indemnitee will be deemed to have acted in a
manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company,” as referred to in this Agreement if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the participants and beneficiaries
of an employee benefit plan. The provisions of this Section 13(d) is not exclusive and does not limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this
Agreement. 
 (e) The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary,
agent or employee of the Enterprise may not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining Indemnitee’s right to indemnification under this Agreement. 

Section 14. Remedies of Indemnitee. 

(a) Indemnitee may commence litigation against the Company in the Delaware Court to obtain indemnification or advancement of Expenses provided
by this Agreement in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) the Company does not advance Expenses pursuant to
this Agreement, (iii) the determination of entitlement to indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement within the Determination Period, (iv) the Company does not indemnify Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5
or 6 or the second to last sentence of Section 12(d) of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, (v) the Company does not indemnify Indemnitee pursuant to Section 3, 4, 7, or
8 of this Agreement within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vi) in the event that the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this
Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other 

  
 10 

 
action or Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at
Indemnitee’s option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee must commence such Proceeding seeking an adjudication
or an award in arbitration within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such Proceeding pursuant to this Section 14(a); provided, however, that the foregoing clause does not apply in
respect of a Proceeding brought by Indemnitee to enforce Indemnitee’s rights under Section 5 of this Agreement. The Company will not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration. 

(b) If a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial
proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 will be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee may not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 the Company will have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be and will not introduce evidence of
the determination made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement. 
 (c) If a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this
Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company will be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a
material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

 (d) The Company is, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration
commenced pursuant to this Section 14 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and will stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the
provisions of this Agreement. 
 (e) It is the intent of the Company that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Indemnitee not be
required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract
from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee hereunder. The Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, will (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor) advance to Indemnitee such
Expenses which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action concerning this Agreement, Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or advancement of Expenses from the Company, or concerning any directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance policies maintained by the Company, and will indemnify Indemnitee against any and all such Expenses unless the court determines that each of the Indemnitee’s claims in such Proceeding were made in bad faith or were frivolous or are
prohibited by law. Without limitation of the foregoing, in the event that Indemnitee seeks a judicial adjudication of his or her rights under, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, the Company shall
pay on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is
determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance recovery. 

  
 11 

 Section 15. Establishment of Trust. 

(a) In the event of a Potential Change in Control or a Change in Control, the Company will, upon written request by Indemnitee, create a trust
for the benefit of Indemnitee (the “Trust”) and from time to time upon written request of Indemnitee will fund such Trust in an amount sufficient to satisfy the reasonably anticipated indemnification and advancement obligations of
the Company to the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding for which Indemnitee has demanded indemnification and/or advancement prior to the Potential Change in Control or Change in Control (the “Funding Obligation”). The
trustee of the Trust (the “Trustee”) will be a bank or trust company or other individual or entity chosen by the Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to the Company. Nothing in this Section 15 relieves the Company of any of its
obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) The amount or amounts to be deposited in the Trust pursuant to the Funding Obligation will be
determined by mutual agreement of the Indemnitee and the Company or, if the Company and the Indemnitee are unable to reach such an agreement, by Independent Counsel selected in accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement. The terms of the
Trust will provide that, except upon the consent of both the Indemnitee and the Company, upon a Change in Control: (i) the Trust may not be revoked, or the principal thereof invaded, without the written consent of the Indemnitee; (ii) the
Trustee will advance Expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, within two (2) business days of a request by the Indemnitee; (iii) the Company will continue to fund the Trust in accordance with the Funding Obligation;
(iv) the Trustee will promptly pay to the Indemnitee all amounts for which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise; and (v) all unexpended funds in such Trust revert to the Company upon mutual
agreement by the Indemnitee and the Company or, if the Indemnitee and the Company are unable to reach such an agreement, by Independent Counsel selected in accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement, that the Indemnitee has been fully
indemnified under the terms of this Agreement. New York law (without regard to its conflicts of laws rules) governs the Trust and the Trustee will consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of Delaware Court, in accordance with Section 25 of this
Agreement. 
 Section 16. Non-exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation.

 (a) The indemnification and advancement of Expenses provided by this Agreement are not exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee
may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. The indemnification and advancement of Expenses provided by this
Agreement may not be limited or restricted by any amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement in any way with respect to any action taken or omitted by Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s Corporate Status occurring prior to any amendment,
alteration or repeal of this Agreement. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be 

  
 12 

 
afforded currently under the Bylaws, Certificate of Incorporation, or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so
afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy is cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy. 

(b) The Company hereby acknowledges that Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of Expenses and/or insurance
provided by one or more Persons with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, Patient Square Capital, LP and certain of its affiliates, collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). 

i. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees: 

1) the Company is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to any request for indemnification or advancement of Expenses made pursuant to
this Agreement concerning any Proceeding arising from or related to Indemnitee’s Corporate Status with the Company; 
 2) the Company
is primarily liable for all indemnification and indemnification or advancement of Expenses obligations for any Proceeding arising from or related to Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, whether created by law, organizational or constituent documents,
contract (including this Agreement) or otherwise; 
 3) any obligation of any other Persons with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated
(including, without limitation, any Fund Indemnitor) to indemnify Indemnitee and/or advance Expenses to Indemnitee in respect of any proceeding are secondary to the obligations of the Company’s obligations; 

4) the Company will indemnify Indemnitee and advance Expenses to Indemnitee hereunder to the fullest extent provided herein without regard to
any rights Indemnitee may have against any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, any Fund Indemnitor) or insurer of any such Person; and 

ii. the Company irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases (A) any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated
(including, without limitation, any Fund Indemnitor) from any claim of contribution, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification, or any other recovery of any kind in respect of amounts paid by the Company to Indemnitee pursuant to
this Agreement and (B) any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Indemnitee against any Fund Indemnitor (or former Fund Indemnitor), whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law,
including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Fund Indemnitor (or former Fund Indemnitor), directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment
or security on account of such claim, remedy or right. 

  
 13 

 iii. In the event any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated
(including, without limitation, any Fund Indemnitor) or their insurers advances or extinguishes any liability or loss for Indemnitee, the payor has a right of subrogation against the Company or its insurers for all amounts so paid which would
otherwise be payable by the Company or its insurers under this Agreement. In no event will payment by any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Fund Indemnitor) or their insurers affect the
obligations of the Company hereunder or shift primary liability for the Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance of Expenses to any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Fund
Indemnitor). 
 iv. Any indemnification or advancement of Expenses provided by any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be
associated (including, without limitation, any Fund Indemnitor) is specifically in excess over the Company’s obligation to indemnify and advance Expenses or any valid and collectible insurance (including but not limited to any malpractice
insurance or professional errors and omissions insurance) provided by the Company. 
 v. The Company and Indemnitee agree that the Fund
Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 16(b). 
 (c) To the extent that
the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents of the Enterprise, the Company will obtain a policy or policies covering Indemnitee to the maximum extent of the
coverage available for any such director, officer, employee or agent under such policy or policies, including coverage in the event the Company does not or cannot, for any reason, indemnify or advance Expenses to Indemnitee as required by this
Agreement. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to this Agreement, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company will give prompt notice of such claim or of the commencement of a
Proceeding, as the case may be, to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company will thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee,
all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. Indemnitee agrees to assist the Company efforts to cause the insurers to pay such amounts and will comply with the terms of such policies, including
selection of approved panel counsel, if required. 
 (d) The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to
Indemnitee for any Proceeding concerning Indemnitee’s Corporate Status with an Enterprise will be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such Enterprise. The Company and
Indemnitee intend that any such Enterprise (and its insurers) be the indemnitor of first resort with respect to indemnification and advancement of Expenses for any Proceeding related to or arising from Indemnitee’s Corporate Status with such
Enterprise. The Company’s obligation to indemnify and advance Expenses to Indemnitee is secondary to the obligations the Enterprise or its insurers owe to Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees to take all reasonably necessary and desirable action to
obtain from an Enterprise indemnification and advancement of Expenses for any Proceeding related to or arising from Indemnitee’s Corporate Status with such Enterprise. 

(e) In the event of any payment made by the Company under this Agreement, the Company will be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all
of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee from any Enterprise or insurance carrier. Indemnitee will execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the
Company to bring suit to enforce such rights. 

  
 14 

 Section 17. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement continues until and terminates
upon the later of: (a) ten (10) years after the date that Indemnitee ceases to serve as a director of the Company or (b) one (1) year after the final termination of any Proceeding then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is granted
rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of any Proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement relating thereto. The indemnification and advancement of Expenses rights provided by or
granted pursuant to this Agreement are binding upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or
substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or of any other Enterprise, and inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and
Indemnitee’s spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators and other legal representatives. 
 Section 18.
Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement
(including without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) will not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby and remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions will be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the
parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) will be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby. 

Section 19. Interpretation. Any ambiguity in the terms of this Agreement will be resolved in favor of Indemnitee and in a manner
to provide the maximum indemnification and advancement of Expenses permitted by law. The Company and Indemnitee intend that this Agreement provide to the fullest extent permitted by law for indemnification in excess of that expressly provided,
without limitation, by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, vote of the Company stockholders or disinterested directors, or applicable law. 

Section 20. Enforcement. 

(a) The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in
order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or officer of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving or continuing to serve as a director or officer of the Company.

 (b) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Agreement is a supplement to and in
furtherance of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws and applicable law, and is not a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder. 

Section 21. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement is binding unless executed in
writing by the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be deemed or constitutes a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement nor will any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. 

Section 22. Notice by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with any summons,
citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The failure of Indemnitee to so notify the Company
does not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise. 
 Section 23.
Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given if (a) delivered by hand to the other party, (b) sent by reputable overnight courier
to the other party or (c) sent by facsimile transmission or electronic mail, with receipt of oral confirmation that such communication has been received: 

(a) If to Indemnitee, at the address indicated on the signature page of this Agreement, or such other address as Indemnitee provides to the
Company. 
 (b) If to the Company to:

 or to any other address as may have been furnished to Indemnitee by the Company. 

Section 24. Contribution. 

(a) Whether or not the indemnification provided for herein is available, in respect of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such action, suit or
proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have against Indemnitee. 

  
 16 

 (b) Without diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company set forth in the
preceding subparagraph, if, for any reason, Indemnitee shall elect or be required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with
Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in
proportion to the relative benefits received by the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one
hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, from the transaction or events from which such action, suit or proceeding arose; provided, however, that the proportion determined on the basis of relative benefit may, to the extent necessary
to conform to law, be further adjusted by reference to the relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit
or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with the transaction or events that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable considerations which applicable
law may require to be considered. The relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on
the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the degree to which their actions were motivated by intent to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary
or secondary and the degree to which their conduct is active or passive. 
 (c) The Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify and hold
Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be brought by officers, directors, or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee. 

(d) To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee
for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, will contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in
connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits
received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) and Indemnitee in
connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s). 
 Section 25. Applicable Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement
and the legal relations among the parties are governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with respect to any arbitration commenced by Indemnitee
pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, the Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any action or Proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement may be brought only in the Chancery
Court of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court sitting in the State
of Delaware and any federal appellate court therefrom) (the “Delaware Court”) and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for purposes of any action or Proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or Proceeding in the Delaware Court,
and (iv) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or Proceeding brought in the Delaware Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum.

produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement. 
 Section 27. Headings. The headings of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and do not constitute part of this Agreement or affect the construction thereof.
