Upon expiration of the seventh anniversary of the Closing, to the extent the Sellers have not earned the entirety of the Earnout, SMAT shall pay the Sellers a pro-rata amount of the Earnout based on collections from net sales of the product, with such amount to be due credited against any Earnout payments already made by SMAT (the “True-Up Payment”). The Earnout, minus the True-Up Payment and any Earnout payments already made by SMAT, may be earned at any point in the future, including after the True-Up Payment is made. *Professional Services Agreement* In connection with the Applied Asset Purchase and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, effective August 1, 2023, the Company entered into a professional services agreement (the “Petito Services Agreement”) with the Owner, pursuant to which the Owner, as an independent contractor, agreed to provide certain services to the Company, including, among other things, assisting with the development of products already in development and assisting with research, development, formulation, invention and manufacturing of any future products (the “Petito Services”).

The Petito Services Agreement may be terminated upon the Owner’s death or disability or by the Company or the Owner “For Cause” (as defined in the Petito Services Agreement); provided, however, that the base salary described in (i) of the foregoing paragraph shall survive termination through the three-year initial term and the royalty payments and incentive payments described in (ii)-(v) of the foregoing paragraph shall survive termination of the Petito Services Agreement. *Loan Agreement* In connection with the entry into the Purchase Agreement, on August 1, 2023, SMAT, as borrower, and the Company, as guarantor, entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Cadence Bank (the “Bank”) providing for, among other things, an advancing term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $12.0 million (the “Term Loan”), which was evidenced by an advancing promissory note. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Bank agreed to make, at any time and from time to time prior to February 1, 2024, one or more advances to SMAT. The proceeds of the advances under the Loan Agreement will be used for working capital and for purposes of financing up to one hundred percent (100%) of the Cash Closing Consideration and Installment Payments for the Applied Asset Purchase and related fees and expenses, including any subsequent payments that may be due to the Sellers after the Closing. On August 1, 2023, the Bank, at the request of SMAT, made an advance for $9.75 million. The proceeds from the advance were used to fund the Cash Closing Consideration for the Applied Asset Purchase. Advances under the Term Loan will begin amortizing in monthly installments commencing on August 5, 2024. All remaining unpaid balances under the Term Loan are due and payable in full on August 1, 2028 (the “Maturity Date”). SMAT may prepay amounts due under the Term Loan. All accrued but unpaid interest on the unpaid principal balance of outstanding advances is due and payable monthly, beginning on September 5, 2023 and continuing monthly on the fifth day of each month thereafter until the Maturity Date. The unpaid principal balance of outstanding advances bears interest, subject to certain conditions, at the lesser of the Maximum Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the Base Rate, which is for any day, a rate per annum equal to the term secured overnight financing rate (Term SOFR) (as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) for a one-month tenor in effect on such day plus three percent (3.0%). The obligations of SMAT under the Loan Agreement and the other loan documents delivered in connection therewith are guaranteed by the Company and are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the existing and future assets of SMAT. The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and certain covenants that limit (subject to certain exceptions) the ability of SMAT and the Company to, among other things, (i) create, assume or guarantee certain liabilities, (ii) create, assume or suffer liens securing indebtedness, (iii) make or permit loans and advances, (iv) acquire any assets outside the ordinary course of business, (v) consolidate, merge or sell all or a material part of its assets, (vi) pay dividends or other distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, interest in an obligor, including the Company, as guarantor (vii) cease, suspend or materially curtail business operations or (viii) engage in certain affiliate transactions. In addition, the Loan Agreement contains financial covenants that require SMAT to maintain (i) a minimum Debt Services Coverage Ratio and (ii) a maximum Cash Flow Leverage Ratio, in each case, as defined and calculated according to the procedures set forth in the Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, in the event that SMAT fails to comply with the financial covenants described above, the Company is required to contribute cash to SMAT in an amount equal to the amount required to satisfy the financial covenants. The Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default. If such an event of default occurs, the Bank would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Loan Agreement and actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.
