I. Definitions.

A. Use of Definitions. Except as expressly set forth in this Second Amendment, all terms which have an initial capital letter where not required by the rules of grammar are defined in the Loan Agreement.

Second Amendment Effective Date”: shall mean March 25, 2022.

Accordingly, effective as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, the definitions of “Benchmark”, “Benchmark Replacement”, “Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes”, “Benchmark Transition Event”, “Early Opt-in Election”, “LIBOR Loan”, and “LIBOR Rate”, are hereby deleted in their entirety.

II. Amendment to Loan Agreement. Effective as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

A.Interest Rates. Section 2.3(A) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 2.3(A) in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:

“(A) Interest Rates.

1.Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loan as provided in Section 3.1 below at the floating per annum rate of interest equal to the greater of (a) the Index Rate plus the Applicable Margin, or (b) two and one-half of one percent (2.5%) per annum, until the date such Loans are paid in full.

2.Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of Term Loan A as provided in Section 3.1 below at the floating per annum rate of interest equal to the



greater of (a) the Index Rate plus the Applicable Margin, or (b) two and one-half of one percent (2.5%) per annum, until the date such Loans are paid in full.

3.Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the unpaid principal amount of the Loans shall, at Lender’s option bear interest at the Default Rate.

4.With respect to any Index Rate Loan:

a. The Index Rate is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index Rate upon Borrower’s request. The interest rate on the Loans is subject to change from time to time based on changes in the Index Rate which such interest rate changes will not occur more often than each day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well.

b.If Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that the Index Rate has become unavailable or unreliable, either temporarily, indefinitely, or permanently, during the term of this Loan Agreement, Lender may amend this Loan Agreement by designating a substantially similar substitute index. Lender may also amend and adjust the Applicable Margin to accompany the substitute index. The change to the Applicable Margin may be a positive or negative value, or zero. In making these amendments, Lender may take into consideration any then-prevailing market convention for selecting a substitute index and margin for the specific Index Rate that is unavailable or unreliable. Such an amendment to the terms of this Loan Agreement will become effective and bind on Borrower ten (10) Business Days after Lender gives written notice to Borrower without any action or consent of Borrower. Under no circumstances will the interest rate on the Loans be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

c.If any Regulatory Change (whether or not having the force of law) shall (1) impose, modify or deem applicable any assessment, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds or disbursements by, Lender; (2) subject Lender or the Index Rate Loans to any tax or change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of principal or interest due from Borrower to Lender hereunder (other than a change in the taxation of the overall net income of Lender); or (3) impose on Lender any other condition regarding the Index Rate Loans or Lender’s funding thereof, and Lender shall determine in its sole discretion (which determination shall be conclusive, absent any manifest error) that the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Index Rate Loans or to reduce the amount of principal or interest received by Lender hereunder, then Borrower shall pay to Lender, on demand, such additional amounts as Lender shall, from time to time, determine in its sole discretion are sufficient to compensate and indemnify Lender from such increased cost or reduced amount.”

B. Financial Covenant. Section 9.4(A) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 9.4(A) of the Loan Agreement in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:



“(A) Minimum Liquidity. Borrower shall maintain Liquidity, tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter beginning March 31, 2022, of not less than (i) $13,000,000, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022, through and including the last day of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2022, and (ii) $12,000,000 as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023, and as of the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter. For purposes of clarification, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall not be tested from and after the Second Amendment Effective date.”

III. Lender’s Consent to the Merger. Borrower intends to complete the Merger on or before December 31, 2022 (the “Merger Date”). Notwithstanding Section 9.3(B) of the Loan Agreement and subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section V of this Second Amendment, based upon the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, Lender hereby consents to the Merger; provided, however, such consent is conditioned upon (a) no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default existing as of the Merger Date or being caused by the Merger, and (b) the Merger is consummated on or before the Merger Date.

IV. Release of Bona Vida as a Guarantor. Borrower hereby represents, warrants and covenants unto Lender that Bona Vida (i) is, has been for the previous 12 months, and will be through the date of its dissolution, a dormant company with de minimus assets and no operations, (ii) currently does not have, and shall not at any time hereafter have, any assets that are that are used or useful in Borrower’s business in any respect (excluding assets that will be transferred to Borrower prior to Bona Vida’s dissolution), and (iii) has not within the previous 12 months, and will not at any time hereafter, transact or conduct any business with Borrower of any kind. In reliance upon the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants, effective upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section IV above, Lender hereby (y) releases Bona Vida from its covenants, duties and obligations under the Guaranty, and (z) releases its security interest in the de minimus assets of Bona Vida existing as of the date hereof. To the extent any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Section III are inaccurate or misleading in any respect, or any covenant set forth in this Section III is violated, the releases and terminations set forth herein shall be null and void ab initio, and all of Bona Vida’s obligations, liabilities and liens under the Guaranty, shall be reinstated. Except as expressly set forth above with respect to Bona Vida and its assets, nothing herein shall be deemed a release or termination by Lender of any other liabilities, obligations, liens, agreements, documents or instruments.

D. There shall have been no material or adverse change in the business, financial condition or results of operations since the date of Borrower’s most recently delivered financial statements to Lender.

VII. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Second Amendment shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and enforceable under applicable law, but if any provision of this Second Amendment is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be severed herefrom and such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Second Amendment, the balance of which shall remain in and have its intended full force and effect.

XI. Choice of Law. This Second Amendment has been delivered and accepted in Chicago, Illinois, and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law as to all matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies.

XII. Counterpart. This Second Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
