AMENDMENT AND FORBEARANCE

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and certain other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, but subject to all the terms, conditions, and provisions contained in the Loan Documents, except as herein modified or amended, Borrower hereby agrees to and with Lender and its successors and assigns as follows:

1.            Recitals. The foregoing recitals are confirmed by the Parties hereto as true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference. The recitals are a substantive, contractual part of this Ninth Amendment.

2.            Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Ninth Amendment shall have the same meaning given them in the Loan Agreement or the applicable Loan Documents.

3.            Maturity Date. Borrower’s obligations under this Ninth Amendment and the Loan Documents shall mature on September 9, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”).

4.            Amendments to Original Loan Agreement. As of the Effective Date, the Original Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated to conform in its entirety to the Loan Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

5.            Forbearance.

5.1.         Grant of Forbearance. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof, commencing as of the date hereof and continuing to the Forbearance Termination Date (such period referred to herein as the “Forbearance Period”), Lender shall forbear from taking any action, or exercising any rights or remedies against Borrower under the Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral, in respect of the Existing Events of Default. On the Forbearance Termination Date, all forbearance with respect to the Existing Events of Default shall cease, and thereupon Lender may, in its discretion, exercise all rights and remedies with respect to the Existing Events of Default or any other Event of Default against Borrower, Borrower’s property or the Collateral as if this forbearance had never been granted.

5.2.         Preservation of Rights. By agreeing to temporarily forbear from the exercise of rights and remedies until the Forbearance Termination Date, Lender does not waive the Existing Events of Default. The Existing Events of Default and any other Event of Default which may be continuing on the date hereof or which may occur after the date hereof (whether the same or similar to the Existing Events of Default or otherwise) are preserved. The granting of the temporary forbearance hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver of Lender’s rights and remedies or constitute a course of conduct or dealing on behalf of Lender. Lender specifically reserves all options, rights and remedies available to Lender under the Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) Lender is not obligated or required to make any advances of the Loan to Borrower under the Loan Agreement and (b) any advances of the Loan made by Lender to Borrower during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default (including the Existing Events of Default) shall be made at the sole discretion of Lender and shall not obligate Lender to make any additional advances of the Loan to Borrower.

5.3.         Forbearance Termination Date. The “Forbearance Termination Date” shall mean the date that is the earlier to occur of: (a) the occurrence of an Event of Default (after giving effect to any cure periods applicable thereto) under the Loan Documents other than the Existing Events of Default (“New Default”), and (b) March 27, 2023 (the “Forbearance Maturity Date”). Borrower shall advise Lender of the occurrence of any event or series of events which would constitute a New Default promptly after the occurrence thereof.

10.          Release of Claims and Waiver of Defenses; Covenant Not to Sue.

10.1.       In further consideration of Lender’s execution of this Ninth Amendment, Borrower, on behalf of itself and its successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents hereby forever, fully, unconditionally and irrevocably waive and release Lender and its successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, lawyers and other professional advisors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, debts, causes of action (whether at law or in equity or otherwise), defenses, counterclaims, setoffs, of any kind, whether known or unknown, whether liquidated or unliquidated, matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent, directly or indirectly arising out of, connected with, resulting from or related to any act or omission by Lender or any other Releasee with respect to the Loan Documents and any Collateral on or before the date of this Ninth Amendment (collectively, the “Claims”). Borrower further agrees that it shall not commence, institute, or prosecute any lawsuit, action or other proceeding, whether judicial, administrative or otherwise, to collect or enforce any Claim.

10.2.       Borrower, on behalf of itself and its successors, assigns, and other legal representatives, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim.

11.          Bankruptcy.

11.1.       As consideration for Lender agreeing to this Ninth Amendment and the Loan Documents Borrower agrees that in the event a bankruptcy petition under any chapter of Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other applicable federal, state, or foreign bankruptcy law, receivership law, or other similar law, is filed by or against Borrower at any time after the Execution Date, Lender shall be entitled to the immediate entry of an order from the appropriate bankruptcy court granting Lender complete relief from the automatic stay imposed by 11 U.S.C. § 362 to exercise its foreclosure and other rights, including, but not limited to, obtaining a foreclosure judgment and foreclosure sale, upon the filing with the appropriate court of a motion for relief from the automatic stay with a copy of this Ninth Amendment attached thereto. Borrower specifically agrees that:

11.1.1.            Upon filing of a motion for relief from the automatic stay, Lender shall be entitled to relief from the stay without the necessity of an evidentiary hearing and without the necessity or requirement of Lender to establish or prove the value of the Collateral, the lack of adequate protection of its interest in such Collateral, or the lack of equity in such Collateral;

11.1.2.            The lifting of the automatic stay hereunder by the appropriate bankruptcy court shall be deemed to be “for cause” pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362(d)(1); and

11.1.3.            Borrower will not directly or indirectly oppose or otherwise defend against Lender’s effort to gain relief from the automatic stay.

11.2.       This provision is not intended to preclude Borrower from filing for protection under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other applicable federal, state, or foreign bankruptcy law or other similar law. The remedies prescribed in this Section are not exclusive and shall not limit Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, this Ninth Amendment, or any law.

11.3.       All of the above terms and conditions have been freely bargained for and are all supported by reasonable and adequate consideration, and the provisions herein are material inducement for Lender entering into this Ninth Amendment.

12.          No Waiver; Continuing Validity; Compliance with Loan Documents. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Ninth Amendment by Lender and the acceptance by Lender of performance of Borrower hereunder (a) shall not constitute a waiver or release by Lender of any default that may now or hereafter exist under the Loan Documents, (b) shall not constitute a novation of the Loan Documents, and (c) except as expressly provided in this Ninth Amendment, shall be without prejudice to, and is not a waiver or release of, any rights of Lender at any time in the future to exercise any and all rights conferred by the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, the right to accelerate and/or demand immediate payment of the amounts due under the Loan Documents, to institute foreclosure proceedings, to institute collection proceedings, and/or to exercise any right against any other person or entity not a Party to this Ninth Amendment. Except as expressly modified or amended pursuant to this Ninth Amendment and any attachments hereto, the terms of the original Loan Documents, as previously modified, amended, and/or restated from time to time, shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect, and Borrower agrees to pay all amounts required to be paid pursuant to, and otherwise fully comply with, the terms, conditions, and requirements of the Loan Documents, as modified or amended pursuant to this Ninth Amendment, and make all required payments as provided for in this Ninth Amendment and in the Loan Documents, all as further set forth in this Ninth Amendment. Nothing in this Ninth Amendment will constitute a satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents, and it is the intention of Lender to retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of the Loan Documents and the obligations thereunder unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any such maker or endorser will not be released by virtue of this Ninth Amendment.

13.          WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS NINTH AMENDMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY EXHIBIT TO THIS NINTH AMENDMENT, ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN LENDER AND BORROWER RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT EXISTS BETWEEN LENDER AND BORROWER. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE. THIS WAIVER MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING. THIS WAIVER ALSO SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS, OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS NINTH AMENDMENT, ANY EXHIBIT TO THIS NINTH AMENDMENT, ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS, OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTION. THIS NINTH AMENDMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

14.          Miscellaneous.

14.1.       This Ninth Amendment may be executed in a number of identical counterparts which, taken together, shall constitute collectively one (1) agreement; but in making proof of this Ninth Amendment, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed by the party to be charged. For purposes of executing this Ninth Amendment, a document (or signature page thereto) signed and transmitted by facsimile machine or telecopier or submitted in portable document format (PDF) is to be treated as an original document. The signature of any Party thereon, for purposes hereof, is to be considered as an original signature, and the document transmitted is to be considered to have the same binding effect as an original signature on an original document. At the request of any Party, any facsimile, telecopy or PDF document is to be re-executed in original form by the Parties who executed the facsimile, telecopy or PDF document. No Party may raise the use of a facsimile machine or telecopier or electronic mail or the fact that any signature was transmitted through the use of a facsimile or telecopier machine or via electronic mail as a defense to the enforcement of this Ninth Amendment or any amendment or other document executed in compliance with this Section.

14.2.       Any future waiver, alteration, amendment, or modification of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents or this Ninth Amendment shall not be valid or enforceable unless in writing and signed by all parties, it being expressly agreed that neither the Loan Documents nor this Ninth Amendment can be modified orally, by course of dealing, or by implied agreement. Moreover, any delay by Lender in enforcing its rights after an event of default shall not be a release or waiver of the event of default and shall not be relied upon by Borrower as a release or waiver of the default.

14.3.       This Ninth Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and assigns.

14.4.       The headings of Sections in this Ninth Amendment are for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the interpretation or construction of this Ninth Amendment.

14.5.       The warranties and representations of the parties in this Ninth Amendment shall survive the termination of this Ninth Amendment.

14.6.       The terms and conditions set forth in this Ninth Amendment are the product of joint draftsmanship by all parties, each being represented by counsel, and any ambiguities in this Ninth Amendment or any documentation prepared pursuant to or in connection with this Ninth Amendment shall not be construed against any of the parties because of draftsmanship.
