Item 1.01 |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On August 5, 2024 (the “Effective
Date”), Innodata Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a second amendment (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) to
that certain Credit Agreement, dated April 4, 2023, with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as lender (the “Lender”),
Innodata Synodex, LLC (“Synodex”), Innodata Docgenix, LLC (“Docgenix”), Agility PR Solutions LLC (“Solutions”)
and Innodata Services, LLC (“Services” and together with the Company, Synodex, Docgenix, and Solutions, individually, a “Borrower”
and collectively, the “Borrowers”). Synodex, DocGenix, Solutions and Services are all subsidiaries of the Company.
The Amended Credit Agreement
provides for an increased secured revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) up to an amount equal to the
lesser of the borrowing base and $30.0 million (the “Maximum Credit”), and provides that a Borrower may request an increase
to the Revolving Credit Facility’s Maximum Credit of up to, but not to exceed $50.0 million, subject to the approval of the Lender.
As of the Effective Date the
Revolving Credit Facility’s borrowing base is calculated in accordance with the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement and on the
basis of (i) 85% of eligible accounts (other than eligible foreign accounts and unbilled accounts), plus (ii) the lesser of (a) 80% of
eligible accounts that are unbilled accounts and (b) 30% of all eligible accounts, plus (iii) the lesser of (a) 85% of eligible foreign
accounts, (b) 20% of all eligible accounts and (c) $4.0 million, minus (iv) certain other reserves and adjustments. As of June 30, 2024,
such borrowing base calculation would equal approximately $12.4 million. The Company is entering into the Amended Credit Agreement to
have increased access to capital to support anticipated growth with new and existing customers. Increases in accounts receivables from
these anticipated opportunities would increase the borrowing base calculation under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The foregoing description
of the Amended Credit Agreement, is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit
10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03 |

of the Loan Documents.

asset is addressed pursuant to the treatment thereof within the applicable definition of such terms, Lender shall not also establish
a Reserve to address the same event, condition or circumstance. Lender shall notify a Borrower of the establishment of any new categories
of Reserves, or any change in the methodology for the calculation of an existing Reserve (in each case after the Closing Date except
that such notice shall not be required at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or at any time if Lender, in its
Permitted Discretion, determines that it is necessary to act sooner to preserve or protect the Collateral or its value or the rights
of Lender therein). In such event, Lender shall be available to discuss the change. A Borrower may take such action as may be required
so that the event, condition, circumstance, or fact that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists. If Lender determines in its
Permitted Discretion that the event, condition, other circumstance or fact that is the basis for the establishment or change to such
Reserve no longer exists or has otherwise been adequately addressed by a Borrower, Lender shall adjust or eliminate the Reserve accordingly.
At any time that the Maximum Credit is less than the amount of the Borrowing Base, Reserves in respect of amounts that may be payable
to third parties may be deducted from the Maximum Credit.

(with results satisfactory to Lender) prior to the funding of any such requested Revolving Loan.
(b) All
Revolving Loans shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and at the request of and for the benefit of, a Borrower when deposited
to the credit of a Borrower or otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of a Borrower to the deposit account
specified to
Lender for such purpose (which
shall be at a bank acceptable to Lender) or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(c) If
Lender has separately agreed that a Borrower may use the Loan Manager Service, Revolving Loans (i) will be made solely by the Loan
Manager Service, and (ii) will be initiated by Lender and credited to a Borrower’s operating account maintained with Lender
as Revolving Loans as of the end of each Business Day in an amount sufficient to maintain an agreed upon ledger balance in such Borrower’s
operating account maintained with Lender, subject to Excess Availability. Lender may terminate a Borrower’s access to the Loan
Manager Service at any time in its discretion. If Lender terminates a Borrower’s access to the Loan Manager Service, each Borrower
may continue to request Revolving Loans as provided herein so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Lender will
have no obligation to make a Revolving Loan through the Loan Manager Service in an amount in excess of Excess Availability or if an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing or any of the other conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are not satisfied.
2.3
[Reserved].
2.3 Letter
of Credit Facility. As a subfacility under the Credit Facility, subject
to, and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, on and after the Closing Date until the Termination Date, Lender agrees to issue
or cause an Affiliate to issue standby letters of credit or sight commercial letters of credit for the account of a Borrower for purposes
acceptable to Lender (each a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, “Letters of Credit”); provided, that, (a) the
aggregate Letter of Credit Usage will not at any time exceed $2,000,000 and (b) as of the date of the issuance of any Letter of
Credit, and after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Usage will not exceed the
lesser of the Borrowing Base or the Maximum Credit. The form and substance of each Letter of Credit will be subject to approval by Lender
and each Borrower shall execute and deliver such additional letter of credit agreements, applications and other documents required by
Lender as a condition to the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit will be issued
for a term not to exceed 365 days, as designated by a Borrower; provided, that, no Letter of Credit will have an expiration date after
the Maturity Date. Each Letter of Credit will be issued under, and subject to, the additional terms and conditions of the letter of credit
agreements, applications and any related documents required by Lender. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit will be deemed a Revolving
Loan and will be repaid by Borrowers in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to Revolving Loans; provided,
that, if Revolving Loans are not available for any reason at the time any drawing is paid by Lender, then Borrowers will immediately
pay to Lender the full amount drawn, together with interest on such amount from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount
is fully repaid by Borrowers, at the rate of interest then applicable to Revolving Loans. In such event Borrowers agree that Lender may
charge the Loan Account or debit any deposit account maintained by any Loan Party for the amount of any such drawing.
2.4 Payments;
Prepayments.
(a) Payments
by Borrowers. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by a Borrower shall be made to the Lender Payment Account
or such other place as Lender may designate in writing to a Borrower from time to time and shall be made in immediately available funds,
no later than 1:30 p.m. on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Lender later than 1:30 p.m. shall be deemed to
have been received (unless Lender, in its discretion, elects to credit it on the date received) on
the following Business Day and
any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day. All payments of Obligations shall be made
in Dollars, without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, free and clear of (and without deduction for) any taxes, levies, imposts,
duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision
or taxing authority thereof or therein, and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto. No Loan Party will fund
any repayment of the Credit Facility with proceeds, or provide as Collateral any property, that is directly or indirectly derived from
any transaction or activity that is prohibited by Sanctions, Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Anti-Corruption Laws, or that could otherwise
cause Lender or any other party to any Loan Document to be in breach of Sanctions, Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Anti-Corruption Laws.
(b) Application
of Payments. Subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein, Lender shall apply payments received or collected from a
Borrower or for the account of a Borrower (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows,
so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: first, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements
then due to Lender; second, to the payment in full of interest due in respect of any Revolving Loans; third, to the payment in full of
principal in respect of the Revolving Loans, whether or not then due; and fourth,
at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or an event which with notice or passage of time or both would constitute
an Event of Default), as cash collateral in an amount up to 105% of the Letter of Credit Usage; and fifth, to pay or prepay any
other Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Lender directs. Such payments shall be applied as Lender determines
at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on such terms as Lender may require.
(c) Optional
Prepayments. Each Borrower may prepay the principal of any Revolving Loan at any time in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.
(d) Mandatory
Prepayments. If, at any time, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding plus
the Letter of Credit Usage exceeds the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the Maximum Credit, then a Borrower shall promptly, but
in any event, within two (2) Business Days, prepay the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such excess.
(or after the prepayment of all Revolving Loans, upon Lender’s
demand, immediately provide cash collateral up to 105% of the Letter of Credit Usage as required to address such excess, even if amounts
greater than such excess are required as a result of the amount of any Letters of Credit then outstanding).
(e) Maintenance
of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Lender shall maintain an account on its books in the name of each Borrower (the “Loan
Account”) evidencing the Obligations, including Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit, interest, fees and Lender Expenses. Any such
records shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error, provided, that, the failure to make any such entry or the
existence of any error in such records, shall not affect any of the Obligations. Lender shall make available to a Borrower monthly statements
regarding the Loan Account, including the principal amount of the Revolving Loans, interest, fees and Lender Expenses. Each such statement,
absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between each Borrower
and Lender unless, within 30 days after Lender first makes such a statement available to a Borrower, such Borrower shall deliver to Lender
written objection thereto describing any error contained in such statement.
(f) Evidence
of Debt. Lender may request that Revolving Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each Borrower shall
execute and deliver to Lender a promissory note payable to the order of Lender (or, if requested by Lender, to Lender and its registered
assigns) and in a form approved by Lender. Thereafter, the Revolving Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall
at all times be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such
promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).
(g) Charges
to Loan Account. At the election of Lender, all payments of principal, interest, fees, expenses and other amounts payable under the
Loan Documents may be paid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans made hereunder whether made following a request by a Borrower or a deemed
request as provided in this Section or may be deducted from any deposit account of any Borrower maintained with Lender. Each Borrower
is hereby irrevocably deemed to request that Lender, and Lender is hereby authorized to, (i) make a Revolving Loan for the purpose
of paying each payment of principal, interest, fees, expenses and other amounts as it becomes due under any Loan Document and agrees
that all such amounts charged shall constitute Revolving Loans, (ii) make a Revolving Loan to preserve or protect the Collateral,
or any portion thereof, and (iii) charge any deposit account of any Borrower maintained with Lender for each payment of principal,
interest, fees, expenses and other amounts due under any Loan Document.
(h) Repayment
on Termination Date. Each Borrower shall make payment in full of the Obligations on the Maturity Date or if earlier, any other Termination
Date.
(i) Indemnity
for Returned Payments. If after any payment, or proceeds of Collateral, are applied to the payment of any of the Obligations, Lender
is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied
by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment
or proceeds had not been received by Lender. Each Loan Party shall be liable to pay to Lender, and does hereby agree to indemnify and
hold Lender harmless for, the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section shall remain effective notwithstanding
any contrary action which may be taken by Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section shall survive the payment
in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(j) Crediting
Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Lender shall not be required to be considered a payment on account unless such payment
item is a wire transfer of immediately available funds made to the Lender Payment Account or unless and until such payment item is honored
when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then a Loan Party shall be deemed not
to have made such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any payment item shall be deemed received by Lender
only if it is received into the Lender Payment Account on a Business Day on or before 1:30 p.m. If any payment item is received
into the Lender Payment Account on a non-Business Day or after 1:30 p.m. on a Business Day (unless Lender, in its discretion, elects
to credit it on the date received), it shall be deemed to have been received by Lender as of the opening of business on the immediately
following Business Day.
2.5 Interest
and Fees.
(a) Rates
and Payment of Interest.
(i) All
Obligations (except for the undrawn amount of any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit) shall bear interest at Daily Simple SOFR
in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin, except (A) Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether
before or after any judgment) automatically upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(d) and
upon written notice by Lender to a Borrower on and after any other Event of Default, and (B) as otherwise provided in Section 2.7.
(ii) Interest
shall accrue from the date a Revolving Loan is made or Obligation is incurred or payable, as the case may be, until paid in full by a
Borrower. Interest accrued on Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month, and in each
case, in any event on the Termination Date. Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the Loan
Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and payable on earlier of the first day of the calendar month after incurred
or the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.
(b) Computation
of Interest and Fees. Interest and fees calculated on a per annum basis shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual
days elapsed. The interest rate on non-contingent Obligations shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease
in Daily Simple SOFR in the case of SOFR Loans effective on the date of any change in Daily Simple SOFR, and if at any time there are
Base Rate Loans, an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Base Rate effective on the date of any change in the Base Rate.
Each determination by Lender of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration.
(c) Fees;
Expenses. Each Borrower shall pay to Lender the fees and Lender Expenses in the amounts and at the time specified in Schedule 2.5.
2.6 Intent
to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate(a). In no event shall
the interest rate or rates payable under any Loan Document, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate
permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. If at any time the
interest rate set forth in any of the Loan Documents exceeds the maximum interest rate allowable under applicable law, the interest rate
will be deemed to be such maximum interest rate allowable under applicable law.
2.7 Illegality;
Market Conditions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, subject to the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition
Event, as such terms are defined in Schedule 2.7, if (a) any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority has
asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender to make or maintain a SOFR Loan or to maintain the Commitment with respect to a SOFR Loan, or
to determine or charge interest rates based on Daily Simple SOFR or SOFR or (b) Lender determines in good faith (which determination
shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that Daily Simple SOFR cannot be determined
pursuant to the definition thereof other than as a result of a Benchmark Transition Event, then Lender shall give notice thereof to a
Borrower and may (A) declare that SOFR Loans will not thereafter be made by Lender, such that any request for a SOFR Loan from Lender
shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan unless Lender’s declaration has been withdrawn (and it shall be withdrawn
promptly upon the cessation of the circumstances described in clause (a) or (b) above) and (B) require that all outstanding
SOFR Loans made by Lender be converted to Base Rate Loans immediately, in which event all outstanding SOFR Loans shall be so converted
and all Obligations
(except for the undrawn amount
of any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit) shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable
Margin.
2.8 Increased
Costs. If any Change in Law shall: (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance
charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, Lender;
(b) subject Lender to any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter
imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, and all interest, penalties or similar
liabilities with respect thereto of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document or any SOFR Loan made by it, or change the
basis of taxation of payments to Lender in respect thereof; or (c) impose on Lender any other condition, cost or expense affecting
any Loan Document or SOFR Loans, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining
any SOFR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Revolving Loan), or to increase the cost to Lender or to reduce the
amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request
of Lender, each Borrower will pay to Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender, as the case may be, for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
2.9 Capital
Requirements. If Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting Lender or any lending office of Lender or Lender’s holding
company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital
or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of any Loan Document, the Commitment or the Revolving Loans,
to a level below that which Lender or Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration
Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time
each Borrower will pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or Lender’s holding company for any
such reduction suffered.
2.10 Certificates
for Reimbursement. A certificate of Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Lender or its holding company,
as the case may be, as specified in Sections 2.8 or 2.9 and delivered to any Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each
Borrower shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.
2.11 Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to Sections 2.8 or 2.9 shall not constitute a
waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that a Borrower shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant
to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions occurring more than 180 days prior to the date that Lender becomes
aware of the event giving rise to Lender’s claim for compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive
effect thereof).
2.12 Increase
Option.
(a) Request
for Increase. Borrower may from time to time, upon written notice to Lender, request an increase to the Maximum Credit in an amount
not to exceed $20,000,000 for all Borrowers
and
in increments of $5,000,000 (each such increase, a “Facility Increase”). Upon each such Facility Increase the Maximum
Credit will be increased, on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
(b) Approval
of Increase. Lender may, but shall have no obligation to approve Borrower’s request for any Facility Increase in accordance
with this Section 2.12. Any such approval shall be in writing from Lender to Borrower, shall be in the sole discretion of Lender
and shall be subject to such conditions as Lender may require, including that (i) immediately prior to and after giving effect to
such Facility Increase, no Default or Event of Default shall exist, (ii) after giving effect to the Facility Increase, the Maximum
Credit shall not exceed $50,000,000 and (iii) concurrently with each such Facility Increase, Borrower shall pay to Lender all fees
as required by Section 2.5 of this Agreement.
3. CONDITIONS;
TERM OF AGREEMENT
3.1 Conditions
Precedent to the Initial Revolving Loan. The obligation of Lender to make the initial Revolving Loan or
issue the initial Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent set forth on Schedule 3.1.

issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit at any time shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:
(a) the
representations and warranties of each Loan Party contained in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects
(except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified
by materiality in the text thereof) on and as of the date of such Revolving Loan, as though made on and as of such date (except to the
extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall
be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable
to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof));
(b) as
of the date of any such Revolving Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable, or the use of the proceeds thereof, and after giving effect to any of the
foregoing, no Event of Default, or event or condition which with notice, or passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default,
shall exist;
(c) Lender
shall have received a request for such Revolving Loan or such Letter of
Credit (or for the amendment, renewal or extension thereof) in accordance with the requirements of the Loan Documents; and
(d) as

and warranty by each Borrower that the conditions specified in Section 3.2 have been satisfied on and as of the date of the applicable
Revolving Loan or issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter
of Credit and after giving effect thereto. The making of any Revolving Loan or

The Commitment shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the Maturity Date (unless terminated earlier in accordance
with the terms hereof).
3.4 Effect
of Maturity. On the Maturity Date, the Commitment shall automatically terminate and all of the Obligations shall become due and payable
without notice or demand and each Borrower shall be required to pay in full all of the Obligations. No termination of the Commitment
shall relieve or discharge any Loan Party of its duties, obligations, or covenants under any Loan Document and the Liens of Lender in
the Collateral shall continue to secure the Obligations and shall remain in effect until payment in full of all Obligations.
3.5 Early
Termination by Borrowers. A Borrower has the option, at any time upon 10 Business Days prior written notice to Lender, to make payment
in full of all of the Obligations. The foregoing notwithstanding, a Borrower may rescind such written notice if it states that the proposed
payment in full of the Obligations is to be made with the proceeds of third party Indebtedness and if the closing for such incurrence
does not happen on or before the date of the proposed termination set forth in such notice (in which case, a new notice shall be required
to be sent in connection with any subsequent termination).
4. REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES
Each Loan Party represents
and warrants to Lender the following:
4.1 Due
Organization and Qualification. Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, (b) is qualified to do business in any State where the failure to be so qualified could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (c) has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its assets, to carry
on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to carry
out the transactions contemplated thereby.
4.2 Due
Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party
have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of such Loan Party. The execution, delivery, and performance by each Loan
Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party do not and will not (a) violate any material provision of Federal, State, or
local law or regulation applicable to any Loan Party, the Governing Documents of any Loan Party, or any order, judgment, or decree of
any court or other Governmental Authority binding on any Loan Party, (b) result in or require the creation or imposition of any
Lien of any nature whatsoever upon any assets of any Loan Party, other than Permitted Liens, or (c) require any approval of any
holder of Equity Interests of a Loan Party, other than consents or approvals that have been obtained and that are still in force and
effect.
4.3 Binding
Obligations; Perfected Liens.
(a) Each
Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is a party thereto and is the legally valid and binding obligation
of such Loan Party, enforceable against such
Loan Party in accordance with
its respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally.
(b) The
Liens of Lender are validly created, perfected and first priority Liens, subject as to priority, only to Permitted Liens which are non-consensual
Permitted Liens, permitted purchase money Liens, or the interests of lessors under Capital Leases, except for Liens in respect of (i) motor
vehicles that are subject to a certificate of title, (ii) money, (iii) letter-of-credit rights (other than supporting obligations),
(iv) commercial tort claims (other than those that, by the terms of any Loan Document, are required to be perfected), and (v) any
deposit accounts and securities accounts not subject to a Control Agreement as permitted by any Loan Document, and subject only to the
filing of financing statements in the appropriate filing offices.
4.4 Title
to Assets; No Encumbrances. Each Loan Party has (a) good, sufficient and legal title to (in the case of fee interests in Real
Property), (b) valid leasehold interests in (in the case of leasehold interests in real or personal property), and (c) good
and marketable title to (in the case of all other personal property), all of its assets reflected in its most recent financial statements
delivered to Lender, in each case except for assets disposed of since the date of such financial statements to the extent permitted by
any Loan Document. All of such assets are free and clear of Liens except for Permitted Liens.
4.5 Litigation.
Except as set forth on Schedule 4.5, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of a Loan
Party, threatened in writing against a Loan Party, that (a) relate to any Loan Document or transaction contemplated thereby or (b) either
individually or in the aggregate has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.6 Compliance
with Laws. No Loan Party (a) is in violation of any applicable laws, rules, regulations, executive orders, or codes that, individually
or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) is subject to or in default with respect
to any final judgments, writs, injunctions, decrees, rules or regulations of any court or any Governmental Authority that, individually
or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No inventory has been produced in violation of the
Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.
4.7 No
Material Adverse Effect. All historical financial statements relating to each Loan Party that have been delivered by a Loan Party
to Lender have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited financial statements, for the lack of footnotes
and being subject to year-end audit adjustments) and present fairly in all material respects, the financial condition of such Loan Party
as of the date thereof and results of operations for the period then ended. Since December 31, 2022, no event, circumstance, or
change has occurred that has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.8 Solvency.
The Loan Parties, on a consolidated basis, are Solvent.
4.9 Environmental
Condition. Each Loan Party is in compliance with all applicable Federal, State and local environmental, hazardous waste, health and
safety statutes, and any rules or regulations related to such statutes, which govern or affect the operations or properties of such
Loan Party, except where the failure to do would not reasonably result in Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, none of the
operations of any Loan Party is the subject of any Federal, State or local investigation
evaluating whether any remedial
action involving a material expenditure is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment.
No Loan Party has any contingent liability in connection with any release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment,
except as would not reasonably result in Material Adverse Effect.
4.10
Complete Disclosure; Projections. All factual information taken as a whole (other than forward-looking
information and projections and information of a general economic nature and general information about each Loan Party) furnished by
or on behalf of any Loan Party in writing to Lender in connection with any Loan Document, and all other such factual information taken
as a whole (other than forward-looking information and projections and information of a general economic nature and general information
about any Loan Party) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party in writing to Lender will be true and accurate, in all material
respects, on the date as of which such information is dated or certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to
make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time in light of the circumstances under which
such information was provided. Projections delivered to Lender represent the good faith estimate of each Loan Party, on the date such
Projections are delivered, of the future performance of such Loan Party for the periods covered thereby based upon assumptions believed
by such Loan Party to be reasonable at the time of the delivery thereof to Lender (it being understood that such Projections are subject
to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of a Loan Party, and no assurances can be given
that such Projections will be realized).
4.11 Taxes.
Except as otherwise permitted under Section 5.5, all material tax returns and reports of each Loan Party required to be filed by
it have been timely filed, and all taxes shown on such tax returns to be due and payable and all other taxes upon a Loan Party and upon
its assets, income, businesses and franchises that are due and payable have been paid when due and payable. Each Loan Party has made
adequate provision in accordance with GAAP for all taxes not yet due and payable. To the knowledge of any Loan Party, there is no proposed
tax assessment against a Loan Party that is not being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued and available
to a Loan Party, in each case prior to the commencement of foreclosure or other similar proceedings, which proceedings (or orders entered
in connection with such proceeding), and adequate reserves or other appropriate provision, if any, as are required by GAAP have been
made therefor.
4.12 Margin
Stock; Investment Company Act, Etc. No Loan Party owns any Margin Stock or engages principally, or as one of its important activities,
in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. No Loan Party is subject to regulation
under the Federal Power Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940 or under any other Federal or State statute or regulation which may
limit its ability to incur Indebtedness or which may otherwise render all or any portion of the Obligations unenforceable. No Loan Party
is a “registered investment company” or a company “controlled” by a “registered investment company”
or a “principal underwriter” of a “registered investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940.
4.13 OFAC;
Sanctions; Anti-Corruption Laws; Anti-Money Laundering Laws; Patriot Act. (a) No member of the Loan Party Group is a Sanctioned
Target or is owned or controlled by, or is acting on behalf of, a Sanctioned Target, (b) each member of the Loan Party Group has
instituted, maintains and complies with policies, procedures and controls reasonably designed to assure compliance with Sanctions, Anti-Money
Laundering Laws and Anti-Corruption Laws, and (c) to the knowledge of any Loan Party, no member of the Loan Party Group is under
investigation by a
Governmental Authority for non-compliance
with Sanction(s), Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Anti-Corruption Laws. As of the Closing Date, the information included in the certification
regarding beneficial ownership as required by 31 C.F.R. §1010.230 received by Lender from any Loan Party that is a “legal
entity customer” as defined in such regulation, is true and correct in all respects.
4.14 Employee
and Labor Matters. There is (a) no unfair labor practice complaint pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened
against any Loan Party before any Governmental Authority and no grievance or arbitration proceeding pending or threatened against any
Loan Party which arises out of or under any collective bargaining agreement and that could reasonably be expected to result in a material
liability, and (b) no strike, labor dispute, slowdown, stoppage or similar action or grievance pending or threatened in writing
against any Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability. Except as described on Schedule 4.14, no
Loan Party is party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement, management agreement or consulting agreement providing for a
consultant to oversee or make decisions with respect to Borrower or Borrower’s business. No Loan Party has incurred any liability

provide to Lender an amended Schedule 5.9; provided, that, (i) such prospective Cash Management Bank shall be satisfactory
to Lender in its Permitted Discretion, and (ii) at or prior to the time of the opening of such deposit account a Loan Party and
such prospective Cash Management Bank will have executed and delivered to Lender a Control Agreement. A Loan Party will close any of
its deposit accounts (and establish replacement deposit accounts in accordance with the foregoing sentence) as promptly as practicable
and in any event within 90 days after notice from Lender that the operating performance, funds transfer, or availability procedures or
performance of the Cash Management Bank with respect to deposit accounts or Lender’s liability under any Control Agreement with

Each Loan Party waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory
counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to any Loan Document, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom
or relating hereto or thereto.
9.2 Indemnification.
Each Loan Party shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold Lender and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and agents
(each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands,
suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements
of attorneys, experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with
the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted
against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the
execution and delivery, enforcement,
performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of any Loan Document, or the transactions
contemplated thereby, (b) with respect to any actual or prospective investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to any Loan
Document, the making of any Revolving Loans or issuance of any Letter of
Credit or the use of the proceeds of any Revolving Loan or Letter
of Credit (whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner
related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of hazardous materials at, on, under, to or
from any assets or properties owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party or otherwise related to compliance with applicable environmental
laws (each and all of the foregoing, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Loan
Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court
of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person
or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment
in full of the Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified
Liability as to which a Loan Party was required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making
such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by each Loan Party with respect thereto. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY
TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT
(BUT, FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, EXCLUDING ANY GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR
OF ANY OTHER PERSON.
9.3 Notices.
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands relating to any Loan Document shall be in writing and shall be personally
delivered or sent by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested), overnight courier, or electronic mail
(at such email addresses as a party may designate in accordance herewith). In the case of notices or demands to any Loan Party or Lender,
as the case may be, they shall be sent to the address set forth next to its signature hereto. Any party hereto may change the address
at which they are to receive notices hereunder, by notice in writing in the foregoing manner given to the other parties. All notices
or demands sent in accordance with this Section shall be deemed received on the earlier of the date of actual receipt or three Business
Days after the deposit thereof in the mail; provided, that, (a) notices sent by overnight courier service shall be
deemed to have been given when received, (b) notices by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if
not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business
Day for the recipient) and (c) notices by electronic mail shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment
from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return email or other written
acknowledgment).
9.4 Assignments;
Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided,
that, no Loan Party may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without Lender’s prior written consent and
any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by Lender shall release any Loan Party from its
Obligations. Lender may assign the Loan Documents in whole or in part and its
rights and duties thereunder
or grant participations in the Obligations and no consent or approval by any Loan Party is required in connection with any such assignment
or participation.
9.5 Amendments;
Waivers. No amendment or modification of any Loan Document shall be effective unless it has been agreed to by Lender in a writing
that specifically states that it is intended to amend or modify such Loan Document. No failure by Lender to exercise any right, remedy,
or option under any Loan Document, or delay by Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Lender will
be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Lender on any occasion shall affect
or diminish Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by any Loan Party of any provision of any Loan Document. Lender’s
rights under the Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Lender may have.
10. JURY
TRIAL WAIVER; OTHER WAIVERS CONSENTS; GOVERNING LAW.
10.1 GOVERNING
LAW. THE VALIDITY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY OTHERWISE PROVIDED THEREIN), THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND
ENFORCEMENT THEREOF, THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES THERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING THEREUNDER OR RELATED THERETO, AND ANY CLAIMS,
CONTROVERSIES OR DISPUTES ARISING THEREUNDER OR RELATED THERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
10.2 FORUM

LITIGATED ONLY IN THE STATE AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF
NEW YORK; PROVIDED, THAT, ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT
LENDER’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE LENDER ELECTS TO BRING SUCH ACTION OR WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER
PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. EACH LOAN PARTY AND LENDER WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT EACH MAY HAVE
TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS
SECTION.
10.3 WAIVER

ANY, TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON
LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS (EACH A “CLAIM”). EACH LOAN PARTY AND LENDER REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND EACH
KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY
OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
10.4 SUBMISSION
TO JURISDICTION. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL
COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK AND THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY
LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT. 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 ANY LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.
10.5 WAIVER
OF CLAIMS. NO CLAIM MAY BE MADE BY ANY LOAN PARTY AGAINST LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE, DIRECTOR, OFFICER, EMPLOYEE, COUNSEL, REPRESENTATIVE,
AGENT, OR ATTORNEY-IN-FACT OF ANY OF THEM FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR LOSSES IN RESPECT
OF ANY CLAIM FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY ANY
LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION, OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, AND EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES, AND AGREES
NOT TO SUE UPON ANY CLAIM FOR SUCH DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT ACCRUED AND WHETHER OR NOT KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR.
11. GENERAL
PROVISIONS
11.1 Effectiveness;
Section Headings; Severability. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by each Loan Party and Lender
whose signature is provided for on the signature pages hereof. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only.
Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.
Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal
enforceability of any specific provision.
11.2 Counterparts;
Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts,
each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute
but one and the same Agreement. Execution of any such counterpart may be by means of (a) an electronic signature that complies with
the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or
any other relevant and applicable electronic signatures law; (b) an original manual signature; or (c) a faxed, scanned, or
photocopied manual signature. Each electronic signature or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have
the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Lender reserves the right, in its discretion,
to accept, deny, or condition acceptance of any electronic signature on this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart
of this Agreement by faxed, scanned or photocopied manual signature shall also deliver an original manually executed counterpart, but
the failure to deliver an original manually executed counterpart shall not
affect the validity, enforceability
and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document, and any notice delivered hereunder or thereunder,
mutatis mutandis.
11.3 Patriot
Act. Lender hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify
and record information that identifies each Person or corporation who opens an account or enters into a business relationship with it,
which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow Lender to identify such Person
in accordance with the Patriot Act and any other applicable law. Each Loan Party is hereby advised that any Revolving Loans or Letters
of Credit are subject to satisfactory results of such verification. Lender shall have the right to periodically conduct due diligence
on each Loan Party, its senior management and key principals and legal and beneficial owners. Each Loan Party agrees to cooperate in
respect of the conduct of such due diligence and further agrees that the reasonable costs and charges for any such due diligence by Lender
shall constitute Lender Expenses for which Lender is entitled to reimbursement as provided herein and be for the account of Borrowers.
11.4 Integration.
The Loan Documents reflect the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not
be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the Closing Date. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding,
all agreements for Bank Products, if any, are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of the agreements for them, which
will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayments, acceleration, reduction, increase, or change in the terms
of any credit extended hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided in such agreement.
11.5 Disclosure.
Lender may disclose information concerning the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents in its marketing or promotional materials,
with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such marketing or promotional materials and
may otherwise use the name, logos, and other insignia of any Loan Party and the Commitment provided hereunder in any “tombstone”
or other advertisements, on its website or in other marketing materials of Lender.
11.6 Innodata
as Agent for Borrowers Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints Innodata as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all Loan
Parties (the “Administrative Borrower”) which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Lender shall
have received prior written notice signed by each Loan Party that such appointment has been revoked and that another Loan Party has been
appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Borrower (a) to provide
Lender with all notices with respect to Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and all other notices and instructions under the Loan Documents
(and any notice or instruction provided by Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to be given by Loan Parties hereunder and shall bind
each Loan Party), (b) to receive all notices, instructions and other information from Lender (and any notice, instructions or other
information provided by Lender to Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have been given to each Loan Party), and (c) to take
such action as Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit and to exercise
such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. Each Loan Party agrees that the handling
of the Credit Facility, with Loan Parties and Collateral in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an
accommodation to Loan Parties in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner
and at their request, and that Lender shall not incur liability to
any
Loan Party as a result hereof. Each Loan Party expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Credit Facility,
with Loan Parties and Collateral in a combined fashion, since the successful operation of each Loan Party is dependent on the continued
successful performance of the integrated group. Each Loan Party hereby agrees to indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless against any
and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against Lender by any Loan Party or by any third party whosoever,
arising from or incurred by reason of (i) the handling of the Credit Facility as herein provided, or (ii) Lender relying on
any instructions of Administrative Borrower. This Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full
of the Obligations.
11.7 Acknowledgment
Regarding any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide
support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC
Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to
the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution
Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the
Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York or of the United States
or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”)
becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC
Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property
securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer
would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest,
obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered
Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights
under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such
Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution
Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
