Lender shall not be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Agreement as a result of the unavailability of SOFR or the absence of a designated SOFR Successor Rate, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. ARTICLE II CREDIT EXTENSIONS SECTION 2.01 TERM LOAN. (a) Term Loans. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon Borrower’s request, during the Draw Period, Lender shall make term loan advances not exceeding the Term Loan Commitment Amount (each such advance is referred to herein as a “Term Loan” and, collectively, as the “Term Loans”). Any Term Loan made hereunder shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire remaining undrawn amount of the Term Loan Commitment Amount), and shall be made pursuant to a Borrowing Request, duly completed and given by Borrower to Lender not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the tenth (10th) Business Day prior to the date upon which the applicable Term Loan is requested to be made, or such shorter time as Lender may agree. (ii) Limits on Credit Extensions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01(a), Lender will not be required and shall have no obligation to make any Term Loan or other advances hereunder if a Default or Event of Default then exists or would result by virtue of the making thereof. No Credit Extension borrowed under this Section 2.01(a) (or any portion thereof) that has been repaid or prepaid may be reborrowed. SECTION 2.02 INTEREST. (a) Interest. Subject to the provisions hereof (including Sections 2.02(c), 2.02(d) and 2.02(e)), the outstanding principal balance of each Loan shall bear interest from the date advanced until such Loan is Repaid in Full at the Base Rate applicable to such Loan. (i) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall pay in kind (and not in cash) all or any portion of the interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans with respect to such Interest Payment Date by capitalizing such interest as additional principal, which interest shall constitute PIK Interest hereunder. PIK Interest (A) shall be compounded quarterly in arrears and shall increase, and shall thereafter constitute and be

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -31- considered a portion of, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans (except for purposes of calculating availability under the Term Loan Commitment Amount) on and as of the Interest Payment Date it otherwise would have been paid, and (B) shall bear interest at the applicable rate set forth in Section 2.02(a). As of the applicable date such PIK Interest is capitalized in accordance with the preceding clause (A), (x) the principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding at any time shall be composed of the original principal amount of the Term Loans, and the aggregate amount of PIK Interest through such time (as each such amount may be decreased as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.03), and all references herein or in any other Loan Document to the principal amount of the Term Loans shall include all PIK Interest (except for purposes of calculating availability under the Term Loan Commitment Amount). Any interest paid in the form of PIK Interest shall be deemed paid when due for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To the extent not previously paid in cash, all PIK Interest shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days of such request, cause to be issued to Lender a new Note, duly executed and delivered by Borrower, evidencing the Borrower’s obligation to pay the increased principal amount of the Notes resulting from the interest capitalization pursuant to this Section 2.02(a)(i). Unless otherwise elected in writing by Lender, if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in cash in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. (ii) If a Market Disruption Event occurs, then Lender shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, use commercially reasonable efforts to give notice thereof in accordance with Section 8.02 to Borrower and Lender. (b) Payment Dates. Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof both before and after judgment, and both before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law. Subject to the provisions hereof, Borrower shall pay accrued and unpaid interest under Section 2.02(a) to Lender, as follows: (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in cash, on each Interest Payment Date; (ii) upon payment or prepayment of the principal balance of the Loans or any portion thereof, on the amount so paid or prepaid; and (iii) on the Maturity Date. (c) Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.02(a), at any time that an Event of Default exists, then, without affecting any of Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, unless otherwise elected by Lender in writing, (i) all of the Obligations shall automatically bear interest at the Default Rate, and (ii) such interest at the Default Rate shall be payable in cash upon demand therefor by Lender. (d) Compounding. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.02, without affecting any of Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, all interest (including interest at the Default Rate) on the Loans that is not paid when due shall, be added to the outstanding principal balance thereof and thereafter bear interest at the rate then applicable to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans and be PIK Interest. (e) Inability to Determine Rates. (i) If, in connection with any request for a Loan based on the SOFR Index Rate, (A) Lender determines, that (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the SOFR Index Rate with respect to any such proposed or existing Loan, and (y) the circumstances described in clause (iii)(A) below do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i)(A), “Impacted

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -32- Loans”), or (B) Lender determines, for any reason, that the SOFR Index Rate with respect to such a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of making and maintaining such Loan, Lender will promptly notify Borrower in writing. Thereafter, (1) the obligation of Lender to make or maintain Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans), and (2) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the SOFR Index Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the SOFR Index Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Lender revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate (to the extent of the affected Loans). (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender has made the determination described in clause (i)(A) above, Lender, in consultation with Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative interest rate shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (A) Lender revokes the notice delivered in writing with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (i)(A) above, (B) Lender notifies in writing Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of the Impacted Loans, or (C) Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate of interest or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of Lender to do any of the foregoing, and provides Lender and Borrower written notice thereof. (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if Lender determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that: (A) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the SOFR Index Rate, including, without limitation, because the SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; (B) the administrator of the SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which SOFR or the SOFR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or (C) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.02(e), are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace SOFR; then, reasonably promptly after such determination by Lender, Lender and Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace SOFR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) (any such proposed rate, a “SOFR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes, and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Lender shall have notified Borrower of such proposed amendment unless Borrower shall have objected thereto by written notice to Lender prior to such effective time. Such SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Lender, such SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Lender.

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -33- If no SOFR Successor Rate has been determined and either the circumstances under clause (iii)(A) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), Lender will promptly so notify Borrower in writing. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of Lender to make or maintain Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans), and (y) the SOFR Index Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate (to the extent of the affected Loans). Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of SOFR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such SOFR Successor Rate be less than the Floor for purposes of this Agreement. SECTION 2.03 PAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL Subject to the provisions hereof: (a) Payment on Maturity Date. Subject to Section 2.05(b), Borrower shall repay in full the Credit Outstandings and all other Obligations on the Maturity Date. (b) Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may voluntarily prepay the Outstanding Amount of the Loans, in whole or in part, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice to Lender (or such shorter period as Lender may otherwise agree); provided, that any prepayment of the Loans shall be in a principal amount of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire Outstanding Amount of the Loans). In connection with any such voluntary prepayment, Borrower shall pay the sum of: (i) the Outstanding Amount of the Loans being paid or prepaid; plus (ii) the Prepayment Fee; plus (iii) accrued and unpaid interest (at the rate then applicable to the applicable Loans being prepaid) on the amounts on the Outstanding Amount of the Loans being paid or prepaid through and including the prepayment date. All prepayments of the Term Loans shall be applied to the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans in inverse order of maturity. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.03(b) if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of the Loans or other contingent transaction, which refinancing or transaction shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed (in which case, a new notice shall be required to be sent in connection with any subsequent prepayment). (c) Mandatory Prepayments. (i) [reserved] (ii) [reserved] (iii) [reserved] (iv) [reserved] (v) Excess Cash Flow. Commencing with the first full Fiscal Quarter after Borrower has achieved positive consolidated operating cash flow, as determined under GAAP, for two consecutive Fiscal Quarters, and continuing thereafter for each Fiscal Quarter through the Maturity Date, within ten (10) days after the date delivery to Lender of its quarterly financial statements is required pursuant to Section 5.01(b), Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.03(e) in an amount equal to [***] of the Excess Cash Flow of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for each such Fiscal Quarter; provided however, that no payment

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -34- shall be required to the extent such payment would not exceed $1,000,000; provided further that to avoid duplication, any amounts required to be prepaid pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be excluded from the calculation of Excess Cash Flow for the applicable Fiscal Quarter. (vi) VP-315 Proceeds Sweep. Within ten (10) days after Borrower receives any VP- 315 Net Cash Proceeds from any VP-315 sublicense, co-development, or strategic partnership, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.03(e) in an amount equal to [***] of the aggregate amount of all such VP-315 Net Cash Proceeds. (vii) YCANTH Proceeds Sweep. Within ten (10) days after Borrower receives any net upfront payments from any YCANTH commercialization partnership, license, or co-promotion agreement for YCANTH generated outside the United States and Japan, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.03(e) in an amount equal to [***] of the aggregate amount of all such YCANTH Net Cash Proceeds. (viii) Liquidity Event. Borrower shall repay in full the Credit Outstandings and all other Obligations on the Liquidity Event Date. (d) Payments Under Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon (i) the prepayment of all or any part of the principal balance of any Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(b), (ii) [reserved], or (iii) acceleration of the Obligations prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, including in the event that the Obligations are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by other similar means (each of clauses (i) and (iii) referred to herein as a “Prepayment Event”), then, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Lender or profits lost by the Lender as a result of such Prepayment Event, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lender, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender, in immediately available funds, measured as of the date of the occurrence of such Prepayment Event, the applicable Prepayment Fee. The Prepayment Fee payable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by Lender as the result of the early termination, and Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, as set forth in clause (iii) of the definition of “Prepayment Event”, if the Obligations are accelerated prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Prepayment Fee, determined as of the date of acceleration, will also be due and payable as though said Obligations were voluntarily prepaid as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations. The Prepayment Fee 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 similar means. Borrower expressly agrees that: (A) the Prepayment Fee is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated parties, ably represented by counsel, (B) the Prepayment Fee shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (C) there has been a course of conduct between Lender and Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Fee, and (D) Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Prepayment Fee as herein described is a material inducement to Lender to make the Loans. Without affecting any of Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if Borrower fails to pay the applicable Prepayment Fee when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until Paid in Full at the Default Rate.

Subject to Section 7.02(d), all amounts prepaid on account of the Outstanding Amount of the Loans shall be applied to the remaining installments of the Loans in the inverse order of their maturities. (f) Notice of Payments. Borrower shall provide written notice of any payments made pursuant to Section 2.03(b) or (c) by 12:00 p.m. (noon) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed prepayment date, which notice shall state pursuant to which paragraph of Section 2.03(b) or (c) the prepayment is being made. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, Lender may reject all or a portion of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.03(c) (except for prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(viii)) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed prepayment date. Each Rejection Notice from Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Loans to be rejected by Lender. If Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Borrower within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Loans. Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrower. SECTION 2.04 FINAL PAYMENT. (a) Final Payment. Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee equal to the Final Payment Amount (the “Final Payment”). Such Final Payment (i) shall be paid substantially concurrently with the Liquidity Event Date, but in any event shall be paid within five (5) Business Days following the Liquidity Event Date; and (ii) shall be fully earned and payable in cash on the Liquidity Event Date, and once paid, shall be non-refundable for any reason whatsoever. Borrower’s obligation to pay such Final Payment shall survive repayment of the Obligations, as well as termination of this Agreement. SECTION 2.05 MANNER OF PAYMENTS (a) Invoices. Lender agrees to endeavor to provide Borrower with an invoice setting forth the Outstanding Amount of the Loans and stating the amount of interest due on any Interest Payment Date in reasonable detail, not later than five (5) days prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided that (i) Lender shall have no liability for failing to do so and (ii) any failure by Lender to provide any such invoice shall not affect Borrower’s (or any other Loan Party’s) obligation to pay when due any amounts owing hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof. (b) Payments on Business Days. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day (including an Interest Payment Date) that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day; provided that interest and fees shall continue to accrue during the period of any such extension. (c) Computations. All interest and fees owing hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and calculated in each case for the actual number of days elapsed. (d) Evidence of Debt. The Credit Extensions made by Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by Lender in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Lender shall be conclusive, except for notice of objection which Borrower may send to Lender within fifteen (15) days from the date upon which the monthly invoice is sent, absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by Lender to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -36- Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. Upon the request of Lender, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a Note, which shall evidence Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. SECTION 2.06 INCREASED COSTS (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, Lender; (ii) subject Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes contained herein) on any Credit Extension made by it, its Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or (iii) impose on Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement and the Loans made by Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Lender or such other Person of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or to increase the cost to Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. (b) [reserved] (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 2.06, as well as the basis for determining such amount or amounts, and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.06 shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.06 for any reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six month period referred to in this subsection (d) shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). (e) Survival. All obligations of each Loan Party under this Section 2.06 shall survive termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations and the earlier resignation or removal of Lender.

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -37- SECTION 2.07 PAYMENTS FREE OF TAXES. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.07), the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. (b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Borrower shall, and shall cause each Loan Party and each of their Subsidiaries to, timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, or, at the option of Lender, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. (c) Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify Lender or any other recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any obligation of Borrower or any Loan Party hereunder or under any Loan Document, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to the amounts payable under this Section 2.07) payable or paid by such Person or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Person and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including reasonable attorneys’ and tax advisors’ fees and expenses), whether or not such Indemnified 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 Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.07, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender. (e) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.07 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.07), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.07 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party incurred in obtaining such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after- Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection (e) shall not be

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -38- construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. (f) Survival. All obligations of Borrower and its Subsidiaries under this Section 2.07 shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment in full of all other Obligations and the earlier resignation or removal of Lender. (g) Tax Mitigation. If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document it shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding, or as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not the Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Lender’s foregoing appointment as the attorney-in-fact for Borrower, and all of Lender’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully paid and performed when due (as applicable). (c) Protective Advances. At any time (A) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (B) that Lender, in its sole discretion, deems it necessary or desirable to make advances (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (2) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations, or (C) if any Loan Party fails to obtain the insurance required by the terms hereof or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which such Loan Party is obligated to pay under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, Lender, in its sole discretion, may obtain such insurance or make such payment or other advances (any such amount so paid by Lender, a “Protective Advance”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall be authorized, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances on behalf of Borrower (or any Loan Party), if and to the extent that Lender deems such Protective Advances are necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral or to enhance the collectability or repayment of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Lender have any duty or obligation to make any Protective Advance(s). All Protective Advances paid shall constitute expenses reimbursable under Section 8.04, shall be immediately due and payable, shall bear cash interest until paid at the then highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations and shall be secured by the Collateral. Lender will use good faith commercially reasonable efforts (with no liability for failing to do so) to provide Borrower with notice of Lender obtaining any insurance on behalf of Borrower or any other Loan Party at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. The making of any Protective Advances shall not be or be deemed to be an agreement to

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -73- make Protective Advances in similar or different circumstances in the future and shall not operate or be deemed to operate as a waiver by Lender of any Event of Default. (d) Application of Funds. (i) Borrower shall have no right to specify the order or the accounts to which Lender shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by any Loan Party to Lender or otherwise received by Lender under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement. (ii) All payments, prepayments, and proceeds of collateral (including the Collateral) and any other amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied until exhausted as elected by Lender or, in the absence of such election, in the following order: (A) first, to Lender, to pay all fees, costs, expenses and indemnification payments then due to Lender under the Loan Documents (excluding all Protective Advances made by Lender); (B) second, pro rata, to Lender if it has made a Protective Advance, to pay all Protective Advances and all unpaid interest on such Protective Advances; (C) third, pro rata, to the Lender, to pay all accrued but unpaid interest and fees (including interest at the Default Rate and any Prepayment Fee) on the Loans owing to Lender; (D) fourth, pro rata, to the Lender to pay the Outstanding Amount of the Loans until such time as the Outstanding Amount of the Loans has been Paid in Full; and (E) fifth, pro rata, to the Lender, to pay all remaining Credit Outstandings and other Obligations owing to Lender. After payment in full of all Obligations (other than Unasserted Obligations), any surplus remaining shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; if any deficiency exists, Borrower shall remain jointly and severally liable to Lender for such deficiency. If Lender, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of any collateral (including the Collateral), Lender 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 until the actual receipt by Lender of cash therefor. (e) Lender’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Lender complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of any collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents, Lender shall not be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of all or any such collateral; (ii) any loss or damage to all or any such collateral; (iii) any diminution in the value of all or any such collateral; or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of any collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents. (f) No Waiver. Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by any Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. Lender has all rights and remedies provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. Any amounts paid by

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -74- Lender on any Loan Party’s behalf as provided herein are expenses reimbursable under Section 8.04 and shall bear interest at the highest interest rate then applicable to any of the Obligations and shall be secured by the collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents. No payments by Lender shall be deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or a waiver of any Event of Default by Lender. (g) [reserved] (h) Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of Lender under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. In addition to the other rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents, Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Lender of any Default or Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. ARTICLE VIII GENERAL PROVISIONS SECTION 8.01 AMENDMENTS, ETC. No purported amendment or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, shall be effective unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by each party hereto; provided that a Loan Document may otherwise be amended in accordance with its terms. 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 Loan 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.

SECTION 8.06 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender and any attempted assignment or transfer by Borrower made without Lender’s prior written consent shall be null and void. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligation hereunder without the prior written consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided however, that no consent of Borrower shall be required for assignments by Lender to one or more of its Affiliates, or for any pledges or collateral assignments made by Lender in connection with its own financing arrangements. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (b) of this Section 8.06 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. (b) Participations. Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than any Loan Party or any Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 2.07(c) with respect to any payments made by Lender to its Participant(s). Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.06 and Section 2.07, (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.07(d) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.06 or Section 2.07, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender. If Lender sells a participation, it shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED -79- Register”); provided that Lender shall not 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 or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form for the purposes of the Code. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. SECTION 8.07 TREATMENT OF CERTAIN INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY. Lender agrees to treat the Information in a confidential manner and to not disclose the Information to Persons not party to this Agreement (or Affiliates thereof), except that Information may be disclosed (including by means of the Electronic Platform): (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, representatives and funding and financing sources (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and agree to keep such Information confidential on the same terms as provided herein); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) provided that Lender will use commercially reasonable efforts to give Borrower advance notice of such disclosure (to the extent not prohibited and reasonably possible); provided further that no such advance notice shall be required to be delivered with respect to any routine audit or examination conducted by any banking authority, auditor, or any governmental agency or other authority exercising examination or regulatory authority over Lender which such examination is not directly focused on a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process; provided that Lender will use commercially reasonable efforts to give Borrower advance notice of such disclosure (to the extent not prohibited and reasonably possible); provided further that no such advance notice shall be required to be delivered with respect to any routine audit or examination conducted by any banking authority, auditor, or any governmental agency or other authority exercising examination or regulatory authority over Lender which such examination is not directly focused on a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) to “Gold Sheets” or other similar bank trade publications announcements; provided that such information consist solely of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; (g) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 8.07 to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (h) with the consent of Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information: (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.07; or (ii) becomes available to Lender, Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other any a Loan Party and not in contravention of this Section 8.07. For purposes of this Section 8.07, “Information” means all material non-public information (including financial information) received from any Loan Party relating to such Loan Party or its business, other than any such information that is available to Lender on a non-confidential basis, and not in contravention of this Section 8.07, prior to disclosure by such Loan Party. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 8.07: (A) shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information; and (B) shall not disclose any financial information concerning any Loan Party or its business (including any information based on any such financial information) or use any such financial information for commercial purposes without the prior written consent of the applicable Loan Party.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender and its Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations to Lender or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such obligations. The rights of Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 8.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Lender or its Affiliates may have. Lender agrees to notify Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. SECTION 8.09 INTEREST RATE LIMITATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the Maximum Rate. If Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws: (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
