(b) Repayment. Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing thereafter on each Payment Date, Borrowers shall make consecutive
monthly payments of equal principal, which would fully amortize the principal amount of the Term Loans by the Term Loan Maturity Date,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, provided that if the Amortization Date is extended to April 1, 2025, the monthly payments shall be recalculated
in equal amounts according to the remaining number of Payment Dates through the Term Loan Maturity Date. Any and all unpaid outstanding
principal and accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Term Loans, the Final Payment, and other fees and other outstanding Obligations
with respect to the Loans, if any, shall be due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date. The Term Loans may only be prepaid
in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) or (d).
(c) Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration. If the Loans are accelerated following the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the sum of:

(ii) the Prepayment Fee, plus
the Final Payment, plus
(iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate, if applicable.
(d) Permitted Prepayment of Loans. Borrowers shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Loans, provided
Borrower Representative provides written notice to Agent (whereupon Agent shall promptly provide written notice thereof to Lenders) of
its election to prepay the Loans at least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment, and pay, on the date of such prepayment, to Agent, for
the ratable benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the sum of:
(i) all outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus
(ii) the Prepayment Fee, plus
the Final Payment, plus
(iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate, if applicable.
(e) Use of Proceeds. Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Loans for working capital and general corporate purposes.
2.3 Payment of Interest.
Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall accrue interest from
and after its Funding Date, at the Applicable Rate, and Borrowers shall pay such interest monthly in arrears on each Payment Date commencing
on March 15, 2022; provided that, Borrowers agree to pay, on the Funding Date of each Term Loan, any partial monthly interest payment
otherwise due for the period between the Funding Date of such Term Loan and the first Payment Date thereof.
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 five percentage points (5.0%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the "Default
Rate"). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrowers pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation,
Lender Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations.
Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) 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 Agent or Lenders.
Payment; Interest Computation. Interest is payable monthly in arrears on the Payment Date of the following month and shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In computing interest, (i) all payments received after
11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on any day may, at Agent's discretion, be deemed received at the opening of business on the next Business
Day, and (ii) the date of the making of any Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded. Changes to the Applicable
Rate based on changes to the applicable Reference Rate shall be effective as of the Payment Date immediately following such change.
Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the parties' intent
not to contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (the "Maximum Rate"). If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally
determine that a Borrower has actually paid to or for the benefit of Lenders an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would
have been payable if all of the Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid
by Borrowers shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of principal outstanding in respect of the Loans; second, after all principal
is repaid, to the payment of accrued interest, third, to the payment of Lender Expenses and any other Obligations; and fourth, after all
Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrowers or paid to whomsoever may be legally entitled thereto, provided
