The Loan is not a revolving credit loan, and Borrower is not entitled to reborrow any portion of the Loan that has been repaid or prepaid from time to time.

2.1.2Commitment Amount. The maximum aggregate principal amount of the Loan (the “Commitment Amount”) shall be EIGHT MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($8,000,000.00).

(b)Borrower agrees that the Loan and each Loan Advance shall be used solely to pay the costs and expenses set forth in the Budget (subject to permitted variances) and for no other purpose.

(c)After the initial Loan Advance, Borrower shall be entitled to receive further successive Loan Advances upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section B of Schedule 2.1, or the waiver thereof pursuant to Section 9.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Borrower shall not be entitled to receive any Loan Advance after the Commitment Termination Date, upon which date the Unused Commitment shall terminate.

2.2.3Interest Calculation. Interest on the Principal Balance shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as then applicable, expressed as an annual rate divided by three hundred sixty (360)) by (c) the Principal Balance. Borrower acknowledges this will result in a higher rate of interest than if interest were calculated based on a 365-366-day year and waives any right to object to said basis of calculation.

2.2.4Interest Payments. Interest shall accrue with respect to each Loan Advance comprising the Loan, from the day on which such Loan Advance was made by Lender. Commencing on September 1, 2020, and on each subsequent Monthly Payment Date thereafter, Lender shall calculate interest accrued on the Principal Balance since the immediately preceding Monthly Payment Date at the Interest Rate and provide an invoice with respect thereto to Borrower.

Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received by Lender on the next following Business Day. All such payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars, in immediately available funds, in each case without set-off or counterclaim.

If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to Lender to fully pay the amounts then due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of fees, indemnities and expense reimbursements then due hereunder, (ii) second, towards payment of interest then due hereunder, and (iii) third, towards the Principal Balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the existence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to apply any payments received and proceeds of Collateral to the repayment of Debt in any order, in its sole discretion.

(a)Payments Free of Withholding. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then Borrower or such paying Person 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 Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower 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 clause (a)), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall pay Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on, or attributable to, amounts payable under clause (a) above) payable or paid by Lender or required to be

(c)Evidence of Payments. If Borrower pays any Taxes as described in this Section 2.2.7, it shall deliver to Lender official tax receipts evidencing such payment or certified copies thereof, if any, or such other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender on or before the thirtieth (30^th) day after payment.

(f)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive any assignment of rights by Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

. Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Debt in whole or in part from time to time without fee, premium, or penalty upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ Notice, provided that no prepayment shall be in an amount less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00).

After Borrower has satisfied all conditions precedent set forth in Section A of Schedule 2.1 for the initial Loan Advance (whether or not the initial Loan Advance is actually made), so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Lender shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cause the Denizbank Pledges to be in full force and effect beyond February 28, 2021 in furtherance of Borrower obtaining concessions from Denizbank A.S. under the Denizbank Credit Agreement, which may include, without limitation, an extension of maturity, a decrease of required amortization payments, an amortization payment holiday, and/or any other concessions to improve the liquidity situation of Borrower.

. As collateral security for the prompt payment and performance in full when due of the Debt, Borrower hereby pledges to and grants to Lender a security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in the Collateral. Subject to, and upon, the extension of the effectiveness of the Denizbank Pledges beyond February

Any of the Loan Documents, for any reason, ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared to be null and void by a court of competent jurisdiction, only if such failure or declaration results in the Lien purported to be created hereunder on the Collateral to cease being enforceable against a material portion of the Collateral, or Borrower or any Guarantor denies that it has any further liability under any Loan Document to which it is party, or gives notice to such effect.

(v)Termination or Invalidity of Merger Agreement. Borrower terminates the Merger Agreement.

(vi)Invalidity of Lien. Lender shall cease to have a first-priority perfected security interest (subject to Permitted Encumbrances) in a material portion of the Collateral.

(B)Borrower fails to comply with Section 6.1.4 (Financial Reporting) and such failure continues for ten (10) days after Notice from Lender;

(xiv)Other Defaults Under this Agreement. Borrower shall continue to be in default or breach under any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement not specified in this Section 8.1, for ten (10) days after Notice to Borrower from Lender, in the case of any Default which can be cured by the payment of a sum of money, or thirty (30) days after Notice from Lender in the case of any other Default;

provided, however, that if such non-monetary Default is susceptible of cure, but cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and provided further that Borrower shall have commenced to cure such Default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower to cure such Default; provided, however, that in no event shall such additional period exceed sixty (60) days.

(a)When any Event of Default (other than those described in Section 8.1(a)(ii), Section 8.1(a)(iii) or Section 8.1(a)(v) with respect to Borrower) has occurred and is continuing, Lender may exercise any of the following rights and remedies: (a) terminate the Unused Commitment and all other obligations of Lender hereunder; (b) declare the Debt to be forthwith due and payable and thereupon the Debt shall be and become immediately due and payable together with all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents without further demand, presentment, protest or notice, of any kind, (c) use and apply against the Debt, to the extent thereof and as permitted by applicable Law, all amounts on deposit in the Accounts, cash, letters of credit or other assets in which Lender has been granted a security interest pursuant to any Loan Document, or (d) any other rights and remedies afforded by this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or at Law or in equity.

(b)When any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(a)(ii), Section 8.1(a)(iii) or Section 8.1(a)(v) has occurred and is continuing, the Debt shall immediately become due and payable together with all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and the Unused Commitment shall immediately terminate.

(c)When any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and without notice to Borrower, to transfer to or to register on the books of the Pledged Companies (or of any other Person maintaining records with respect to the Pledged Stocks) in the name of Lender or its nominee any or all of the Pledged Stocks. In addition, Lender shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Stocks for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. Borrower shall have no further voting rights or the right to receive and retain cash dividends or distributions with respect to the Pledged Stocks and Lender shall have, at Lender’s option, the right but not the obligation to exercise all voting rights and all other rights associated with the Pledged Stocks and receive and retain cash dividends or distributions with respect to the Pledged Stocks. With respect to the actions, voting rights, and other rights and powers in connection with the Pledged Stocks available to Lender at his election upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as described above in this Section 8.2(c), Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender as their proxy and attorney-in-fact with full power

of substitution and acknowledge that the constitution and appointment of such proxy and attorney-in-fact are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law or as set forth herein or in any other Loan Document. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

(a)Successors and Assigns. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the permitted successors and assigns of each party hereto. Neither Borrower nor Lender shall assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document, and any such assignment shall be void.

(b)Sales and Participations. Lender may, at any time, sell, assign or grant participations in all or any portion of Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to any Preferred Shareholder Investor (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or Affiliate of any Preferred Shareholder Investor. In connection with any such sale or assignment, the Loan Documents shall be sufficient evidence of the obligations of Borrower to each purchaser or assignee, and upon written request by Lender, Borrower shall enter into such amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents as may be required in order to evidence any sale or assignment, and to the extent, if any, specified in any such sale or assignment, such assignee(s) shall have the same rights and benefits with respect to the Loan Documents as such Person(s) would have if such Person(s) were Lender hereunder. The indemnity obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall also apply with respect to such purchaser, assignee or participant.

(c)Pledge by Lender. Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to secure obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Merger Agreement; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall

release Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Lender for Lender as a party hereto; provided further, however, the right of any such pledgee or grantee to further transfer all or any portion of the rights pledged or granted to it, whether by means of foreclosure or otherwise, shall be at all times subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(d)Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any permitted assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against Lender, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

(e)Disclosure. Lender may, in connection with any permitted assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, as the case may be, any information relating to Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates or any aspect of the Loan that has been furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement.

(f)Cooperation. In connection with any permitted assignment or transfer of participation of the Loan or any portion thereof, Borrower shall use all reasonable efforts and cooperate fully and in good faith, with Lender and otherwise assist Lender in consummating any such assignment or transfer of participation.

. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws (and not the law of conflicts) of the State of Texas.

(a)Consent to Jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any United States federal or Texas state court sitting in Dallas, Texas, and any appellate court in such jurisdiction, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Texas state or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b)Consent and Waiver of Objection to Venue. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that the exclusive venue for any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be in any United States federal or Texas state court sitting in Dallas, Texas, and any appellate court from any thereof. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in this Section 9.3(b). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. Nothing contained in this Section 9.3(b) shall bar, prevent or prejudice Lender from commencing and maintaining any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court or venue as applicable Law may permit or require.

. Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that Borrower is a party to may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by Lender and Borrower.

. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under any other Loan Document, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or to consider such failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount an Event of Default.

. All notices and other communications (any of the foregoing, a “Notice”) required, permitted, or desired to be given hereunder shall be in writing and sent by hand delivery, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, by nationally recognized overnight courier, or electronic mail addressed to the party to be so notified at its address hereinafter set forth, or to such other address as such party may hereafter specify in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Any Notice shall be deemed to have been received: (a) when delivered, if hand delivered, (b) three (3) days after the date such Notice is mailed, if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, (c) on the next Business Day, if sent by an overnight commercial courier, or (d) immediately if sent by electronic mail (so long as such Notice is received the next following Business Day pursuant to another method of delivery permitted hereunder), in each case addressed to the parties as follows:

. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

. The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by, or invalid under, applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating

the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and to that end, the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable.

. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment to Lender, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under the Bankruptcy Code or any Law or in equity, then, to the extent of such payment, the obligations hereunder intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment had not been received by Lender.

. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any Notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of Notice by Lender to Borrower except for matters with respect to which Lender is required by applicable Law to give notice to Borrower.

. Borrower shall pay (i) up to a maximum of $50,000, all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by Lender and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for Lender, in connection with the preparation, execution and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any extensions, amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Debt, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the Debt.

Section 9.14. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender, and its Affiliates, and their respective permitted successors and assigns, including the directors, officers, partners, members, shareholders, participants, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of counsel for an Indemnified Party), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”) in any manner, relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of: (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or under any other Loan Document, (ii) the Loan or the use of any Loan Advance, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based in contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto; provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arose from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified

Party, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any amounts payable to any Indemnified Party by reason of the application of this paragraph shall be payable within five (5) days after demand therefor. The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this Section 9.13 shall survive the term of the Loan and the exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Indemnified Liabilities shall not be deemed to include liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever in any manner relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of the relative the rights of, and priorities among, Lender and each Denizbank Pledgor with respect to the Collateral.

. The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 9.15No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Waiver of Consequential Damages

Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy in common, joint tenancy or fiduciary relationship between Borrower and Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

Except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.5, and Section 9.1, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein Except as otherwise set forth in Section 9.1, all conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan Advances hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make any Loan Advance in the absence of strict compliance with any or all such conditions and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, Borrower agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, in any legal action or other proceeding, any claim against Lender, on any theory of liability, for indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or any Loan Advance.

. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations

hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments that Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party that drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to this Agreement, it shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into this Agreement without reliance in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Debt and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies.

. Borrower hereby represents that it has not dealt with any financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent provided in Section 9.13, Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 9.18 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

. Borrower shall be fully liable, on a recourse basis, to Lender for repayment of all amounts due hereunder and under the Loan Documents.

. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations among or between such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lender provided by this Agreement and by Law, Lender shall have the right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, without prior Notice to Borrower, any such Notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all amounts, at any time held or owing by Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Borrower. Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set off and

application made by Lender; provided that the failure to give such Notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

. The unpaid amount of the Debt and the amount of any other credit extended by Lender to or for the account of Borrower set forth on the books and records of Lender shall be presumptive evidence of the amount thereof owing and unpaid, but failure to record any such amount on Lender’s books and records shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents to make payments on the Debt when due.

. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by electronic means shall be effective as delivery of an original executed signature page of this Agreement and such other Loan Documents and shall be binding on the parties hereto and thereto.

The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall, and is intended to, constitute an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement, effective from and after the date hereof (the “Restatement Date”), and that the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation of any indebtedness or other obligations owing under the Existing Credit Agreement. On the Restatement Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended, supplemented, modified and restated in its entirety by this Agreement, and all Loan Advances, if any, and other obligations outstanding as of such date under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be Debt under this Agreement, without any further action by any Person. Nothing herein is intended to extinguish, cancel or impair the Lien priority or effect of any Lien with respect to the Debt.

Section 9.26Termination and Release. At such time as the Debt shall have been irrevocably paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations in which no claim has been made), the Commitment Termination Date shall have occurred, (i) the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby in favor of the Lender, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of Borrower and Lender hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or any further action by any Person, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Borrower, and (ii) Guarantors shall be released from the Guarantees, all without delivery of any instrument or any further action by any Person. At the request and sole expense of Borrower following any such termination, Lender shall deliver to Borrower any Collateral held by Lender, and execute and deliver to Borrower such documents as Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by Borrower in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents, then the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement in such Collateral shall be released, and Lender, at the request and sole expense of Borrower, shall execute and deliver to Borrower all releases and other documents necessary or advisable for the release of the Lien created hereby on such Collateral; provided that Borrower shall provide to Lender evidence of such transaction's compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as Lender shall reasonably request.

	Title:

THIS GUARANTEE, dated as of August 7, 2020 (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guarantee”), is made by TRANSATLANTIC WORLDWIDE, LTD., a Bahamas international business company (“Guarantor”) in favor of DALEA INVESTMENT GROUP, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Lender”).

Lender and TransAtlantic Petroleum Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company (“Borrower”), are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated of even date herewith (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender has agreed to make a loan to Borrower in an aggregate principal amount up to EIGHT MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($8,000,000.00) to finance the working capital needs of Borrower and its subsidiaries as set forth therein.

The term “Obligations” is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all debts, obligations, and liabilities of Borrower to Lender pursuant to the Loan Agreement, heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred, or created, whether voluntary or involuntary and however arising, whether due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, secured or unsecured, whether Borrower is liable individually or jointly with others, whether for principal, interest or other debts, obligations or liabilities, and whether or not any or all such debts, obligations and liabilities are or become barred by any statute of limitations or otherwise unenforceable.

IN CONSIDERATION OF these premises and any credit or financial accommodation now or hereafter granted by Lender to Borrower, it is agreed that:

1.Guarantor hereby: (a) unconditionally guarantees the full and prompt payment and performance of the Obligations when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, or (if earlier) at the time Borrower becomes the subject of bankruptcy or other insolvency

proceedings; (b) agrees to pay all documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Lender in enforcing this Guarantee and the Obligations and realizing on any collateral for either; and (c) agrees to pay to Lender the amount of any payments made to Lender or another in connection with any of the Obligations which are recovered from Lender by a trustee, receiver, Lender or other party pursuant to applicable law.

2.This is a guarantee of payment, and not of collection. Lender shall not be obligated to: (a) take any steps whatsoever to collect from, or to file any claim of any kind against, Borrower, any guarantor, or any other person or entity liable for payment or performance of any of the Obligations; (b) take any steps whatsoever to protect, accept, obtain, enforce, take possession of, perfect its interest in, foreclose or realize on collateral or security, if any, for the payment or performance of any of the Obligations or any guarantee of any of the Obligations; or (c) in any other respect exercise any diligence whatsoever in collecting or attempting to collect any of the Obligations by any means.

3.Guarantor’s liability for payment and performance of the Obligations shall be absolute and unconditional. Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably waives each and every defense which, under principles of guarantee or suretyship law, would otherwise operate to impair or diminish such liability and nothing whatsoever except actual full payment and performance to Lender of the Obligations shall operate to discharge Guarantor’s liability hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall have the exclusive right, which may be exercised from time to time without diminishing or impairing the liability of Guarantor in any respect, and without notice of any kind to Guarantor, to: (a) extend any additional credit to Borrower; (b) accept any collateral, security or guarantee for any Obligations or any other credit; (c) determine how, when and what application of payments, credits and collections, if any, shall be made on the Obligations and any other credit and accept partial payments; (d) determine what, if anything, shall at any time be done with respect to any collateral or security; perfect or fail to perfect any lien or security interest; subordinate, sell, transfer, surrender, release or otherwise dispose of all or any of such collateral or security; and purchase or otherwise acquire any such collateral or security at foreclosure or otherwise; and (e) with or without consideration grant, permit or enter into any waiver, amendment, extension, modification, refinancing, indulgence, compromise, settlement, subordination, discharge or release of: (i) any of the Obligations and any agreement relating to any of the Obligations; (ii) any obligations of any guarantor or other person or entity liable for payment or performance of any of the Obligations, and any agreement relating to such obligations; and (iii) any collateral or security or agreement relating to collateral or security for any of the foregoing.

4.Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives: (a) presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for payment and all notices of any kind, including without limitation: notice of acceptance hereof; notice of the creation of any of the Obligations; notice of nonpayment, nonperformance or other default on any of the Obligations; and notice of any action taken to collect upon or enforce any of the Obligations; (b) any subrogation to the rights of Lender against Borrower and any other claim against Borrower which arises as a result of payments made by Guarantor pursuant to this Guarantee, until the Obligations have been paid or performed in full (other than indemnification, reimbursement or contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted); (c) any claim for contribution against any co‑guarantor, until the Obligations have been paid or performed in full (other than indemnification, reimbursement or contingent obligations for

which no claim has been asserted); and (d) any setoffs or counterclaims against Lender which would otherwise impair Lender’s rights against Guarantor hereunder.

5.Guarantor has made an independent investigation and evaluation of the financial condition of Borrower and the value of any collateral, and has not relied (and will not rely) on any information or evaluation provided by Lender regarding such condition or value.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee by Guarantor are within the corporate powers of Guarantor, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not and will not (i) require any consent or approval of the stockholders of Guarantor which has not been obtained, (ii) violate any provision of the articles of incorporation or by‑laws of Guarantor or of any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently in effect having applicability to Guarantor, (iii) require the consent or approval of, or filing or registration with, any governmental body, agency or authority, or (iv) result in a breach of or constitute a default under, or result in the imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property of Guarantor pursuant to, any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or affected.

This Guarantee constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy or similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally.

The financial statements of Guarantor furnished to Lender fairly present the financial condition of Guarantor for the periods shown therein, and since the dates covered by the most recent of such financial statements, there has been no Material Adverse Change (as defined in the Loan Agreement). Except as expressly shown on such financial statements, Guarantor: owns all of its assets free and clear of all liens except for Permitted Encumbrances (as defined in the Loan Agreement); is not a party to any litigation, nor is any litigation threatened to the knowledge of Guarantor which, in each case, would, if adversely determined, be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; and has no material delinquent tax liabilities, nor have any material tax deficiencies been proposed against it.

7.Guarantor shall provide to Lender such information regarding the financial condition of Guarantor as Lender may reasonably request from time to time.

8.Any term or provision of this Guarantee to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Guarantee voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar

laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the obligations of Guarantor shall be limited to such maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made or reasonably expected to be made by or on behalf of any other guarantor of the Obligations in respect of the obligations of such other guarantor under its guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations, result in the obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal, state or foreign law.

9.This Guarantee shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, including every holder or owner of any of the Obligations, and shall be binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor’s successors and permitted assigns. This is a continuing guarantee and shall continue in effect until all Obligations shall be paid or performed in full (other than indemnification, reimbursement or contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted), at which time, this Guarantee and Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall automatically terminate.

10.This Guarantee constitutes the entire agreement between Lender and Guarantor with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all previous communications and negotiations, and no representation, understanding, promise or condition concerning the subject matter hereof shall be binding upon Lender unless expressed herein.

11.This Guarantee shall be governed by the internal laws (and not the law of conflicts) of the State of Texas.

12.Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any United States federal or Texas state court sitting in Dallas, Texas, and any appellate court in such jurisdiction, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Texas state or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guarantee shall affect any right that Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee against Guarantor in the courts of any jurisdiction.

13.Guarantor hereby waives any and all right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee, or any document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, or any transaction arising from or connected to any of the foregoing. Guarantor represents that this waiver is knowingly, willingly and voluntarily given.

14.Guarantor hereby waives any right it may now or hereafter have to claim or recover from Lender any consequential, exemplary or punitive damages.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Guarantee to be duly executed by their duly authorized representatives, all as of the day and year first above written.
