-4-

(d)No Set-Offs. All payments of principal, interest and other amounts under this Note shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind for any reason.

4.    Interest.

(a)This Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 8.5% (the “Interest Rate”). Such interest shall be calculated as simple interest on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, and shall accrue from and including the Effective Date through the date the Loan is paid in full in immediately available funds. Interest shall not compound or be capitalized.

(b)Beginning December 31, 2026, and again on the last Business Day of any calendar quarter between December 31, 2026, and the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall make a quarterly remittance to the Lender consisting of the then outstanding accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan. All accrued and unpaid interest remaining outstanding on the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(c)However, notwithstanding the forgoing, the provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Borrower and Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of demand or acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or retention of the money loaned under this Note exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision shall be due, exceed the limit for interest prescribed by law or otherwise transcend the limit of validity prescribed by applicable law, then ipso facto the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall be reduced to such limit and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, Lender shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing under this Note in the inverse order of its maturity (whether or not then due) or at the option of Lender be paid over to Borrower, and not to the payment of interest. All interest (including any amounts or payments deemed to be interest) paid or agreed to be paid to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal balance of this Note so that the interest thereof for such full period will not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law.

5.    Voluntary Prepayment.Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the principal or interest of the Loan in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. All prepayments made pursuant to this Section 5shall be applied, first, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid and, thereafter, to the reduction of the unpaid principal amount of the Loan.

(b)Further Assurances. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9(b)shall be construed to grant any rights to the Borrower or to impose any duties on Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Note or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 9(b). Moreover, as set forth in subsection 10(c)-(d) below, any alleged waiver by Lender of any right, remedy, power or privilege under

-8-

this Note shall not be effective unless it is delivered in writing pursuant to the notice provisions in Section 10(g) below and signed by the Lender.

10.    Miscellaneous.

(a)Indemnity. The Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless the Lender from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, fines or penalties, whether direct or indirect, and related expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel in any matter, whether involving a third party or between the Borrower and the Lender) arising from (i) the execution or delivery of this Note or any agreement or instrument contemplated in connection herewith or therewith, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) the Loan as evidenced by this Note or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds thereof; (iii) any actual or prospective claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower; (iv) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Borrower contained herein; (v) any failure by the Borrower to comply with, or any breach or non-fulfillment by the Borrower of, any covenant or obligation of the Borrower set forth in this Note; or (vi) any liability or obligation of the Borrower or the failure by the Borrower to pay, perform or discharge when due any such liability or obligation; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not be available to the Lender to the extent that such claims, damages, losses, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of the Lender.

(b)Taxes; Withholding.

(i)Payments to be Free and Clear. All sums payable by the Borrower under this Note shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”).

(ii)Withholding of Taxes. If the Borrower is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable under this Note, (X) the Borrower shall notify Lender of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the Borrower becomes aware of it; (Y) the Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on the Borrower) for its own account or (if the liability is imposed on Lender) on behalf of and in the name of Lender; and (Z) the amount payable by the Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after any such deduction, withholding or payment of Taxes, Lender receives on the due date an amount equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; provided, however, that to the extent Lender is refunded any portion of such excess, Lender shall remit such amount to the Borrower.

-9-

(c)Assignment.

(i)This Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Neither party may assign or otherwise transfer this Note or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party.

(ii)All references to the Borrower shall include the Borrower as debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for the Borrower in any Insolvency Proceeding.

(d)Delay or Omission; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or omission on the part of Lender to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to or delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise by Lender of any right, power or remedy hereunder, nor any abandonment or discontinuance by Lender of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(e)Amendment; Waiver. No amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of this Note shall (i) be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the party to be bound thereby, (ii) constitute a waiver of any other provision of this Note, whether or not similar, or (iii) constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided in writing and signed by the party to be bound thereby. The Borrower waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest, and any or all other notices or demands in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or endorsement of this Note. The liability of the Borrower hereunder shall be unconditional and shall not be in any manner affected by any indulgence whatsoever granted or consented to by Lender, including but not limited to any extension of time, renewal, waiver or other modification. Any failure of Lender to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any time and from time to time thereafter. Lender may accept late payments, or partial payments, even though marked “payment in full” or containing words of similar import or other conditions, without waiving any of its rights.

(f)Governing Law; Service of Process. This Note shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. The Borrower hereby agrees that any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note shall be brought, if by Borrower, only in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the County of New York, submits to the jurisdiction of such court in the event that any such action or proceeding shall be brought, and expressly waives any objections as to venue in any of such court, including, without limitation, the defense of forum non conveniens. Nothing in this Note shall be deemed to operate to preclude Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to enforce its rights and remedies under this Note including, without limitation, to enforce any judgment obtained in connection therewith. The Borrower hereby agrees that all service of process in any such action or proceedings in any such court may be effected by mailing a copy of such process to it by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address set forth on the signature page hereto (or at such other address of which Lender shall have been notified in accordance with clause (h) below), such service being hereby acknowledged by the Borrower to be effective and binding service in every respect.

(g)Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to waive its respective rights to a jury trial of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising hereunder or under any of the other credit documents or any dealings between them relating to the subject matter of this loan transaction or the lender/borrower relationship that is being established.
