Section 9.8. Section 9.8 of the Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
“Extension Funding. The Company shall provide a loan to Parent in the amount of One Million Nine Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars ($1,930,000) for the purpose of funding any payment due in connection with an extension of the period of time for Parent to consummate a business combination and for working capital purposes (the “Loan”). The Loan shall be funded in three installments, in the amount of Seven Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($740,000) on each of October 26, 2022 and January 26, 2023, and in the amount of Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000) on April 26, 2023.
