DocuSign Envelope ID: 4281D00C-D4C9-40B0-BB18-68BCC9ECF676 Page 2 of 16 STANDARD MERCHANT CASH ADVANCE AGREEMENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS 1. Sale of Future Receipts. Merchant(s) hereby sell, assign, and transfer to TVT (making TVT the absolute owner) in consideration of the funds provided (“Purchase Price”) specified above, all of each Merchant’s future accounts, contract rights, and other obligations arising from or relating to the payment of monies from each Merchant’s customers and/or other third party payors (the “Receivables”, defined as all payments made by cash, check, credit or debit card, electronic transfer, or other form of monetary payment in the ordinary course of each merchant’s business), for the payment of each Merchant’s sale of goods or services until the amount specified above (the “Receivables Purchased Amount”) has been delivered by Merchant(s) to TVT. Each Merchant hereby acknowledges that until the Receivables Purchased Amount has been received in full by TVT, each Merchant’s Receivables, up to the balance of the Receivables Purchased Amount, are the property of TVT and not the property of any Merchant. Each Merchant agrees that it is a fiduciary for TVT and that each Merchant will hold Receivables in trust for TVT in its capacity as a fiduciary for TVT. The Receivables Purchased Amount shall be paid to TVT by each Merchant irrevocably authorizing only one depositing account acceptable to TVT (the “Account”) to remit the percentage specified above (the “Specified Percentage”) of each Merchant’s settlement amounts due from each transaction, until such time as TVT receives payment in full of the Receivables Purchased Amount. Each Merchant hereby authorizes TVT to ACH debit in one or more ACH transactions the specified remittances and any applicable fees listed in Section 2 from the Account on a daily basis (unless a different frequency is provided for herein) as of the next business day after the date of this Agreement and will provide TVT with all required access codes and monthly bank statements. Each Merchant understands that it will be held responsible for any fees resulting from a rejected ACH attempt or an Event of Default (see Section 2). TVT is not responsible for any overdrafts or rejected transactions that may result from TVT’s ACH debiting the Specified Percentage amounts under the terms of this Agreement. Each Merchant acknowledges and agrees that until the amount of the Receivables collected by TVT exceeds the amount of the Purchase Price, TVT will be permitted not to treat any amount collected under this Agreement as profit for taxation and accounting purposes. 2. Additional Fees. In addition to the Receivables Purchased Amount, each Merchant will be held responsible to TVT for the following fees, where applicable: A. $ 64,000.00 - to cover underwriting, the ACH debit program, and expenses related to the procurement and initiation of the transactions encompassed by this Agreement. This will be deducted from payment of the Purchase Price. Wire Fee - Merchant(s) shall receive funding electronically to the Account and will be charged $50.00 for a Fed Wire or $0.00 for a bank ACH. This will be deducted from payment of the Purchase Price. NSF/Rejected ACH Fee - $50.00 for each time an ACH debit to the Account by TVT is returned or otherwise rejected. No Merchant will be held responsible for such a fee if any Merchant gives TVT notice no more than one business day in advance that the Account will have insufficient funds to be debited by TVT and no Merchant is otherwise in default of the terms of the Agreement. Each such fee may be deducted from any payment collected by TVT or may be collected in addition to any other payment collected by TVT under this Agreement. Default Fee - $2,500.00 - if an Event of Default has taken place under Section 30. UCC Fee - $195.00 – to cover TVT filing a UCC-1 financing statement to secure its interest in the Receivables Purchased Amount. A $195.00 UCC termination fee will be charged if a UCC filing is terminated. $ 0.00 - compliance with applicable disclosure requirements. This will be deducted from payment of the Purchase Price. Court costs, arbitration fees, collection agency fees, attorney fees, expert fees, and any other expenses incurred in litigation, arbitration, or the enforcement of any of TVT’s legal or contractual rights against each Merchant and/or each Guarantor, if required, as explained in other Sections of this Agreement. 3. Estimated Payments. Instead of debiting the Specified Percentage of Merchant’s Receivables, TVT may instead debit an “Estimated Payment” from the Account every WEEK . The Estimated Payment is intended to be an approximation of no more than the Specified Percentage. The initial amount of the Estimated Payment is $ 49,966.67 , subject to reconciliation as set forth in Section 4. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, TVT is permitted to debit the Account to make up for a previous Estimated Payment that was not debited because TVT was closed that day, to make up for any previous Estimated Payment that was not collected because the debit did not clear for any reason, to collect any amount due resulting from a reconciliation as set forth in Section 4, to collect any of the fees listed in Section 2, or to collect any amount due as a result of an Event of Default defined in Section 30. 4. Reconciliations. Any Merchant may contact TVT’s Reconciliation Department to request that TVT conduct a
DocuSign Envelope ID: 4281D00C-D4C9-40B0-BB18-68BCC9ECF676 Page 3 of 16 STANDARD MERCHANT CASH ADVANCE AGREEMENT reconciliation in order to ensure that the amount that TVT has collected equals the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables under this Agreement. A request for a reconciliation by any Merchant must be made by giving written notice of the request to TVT or by sending an e-mail to ***@*** stating that a reconciliation is being requested. In order to effectuate the reconciliation, any Merchant must produce with its request any and all statements covering the period from the date of this Agreement through the date of the request for a reconciliation and, if available, the login and password for the Account. TVT will complete each reconciliation requested by any Merchant within two business days after receipt of proper notice of a request for one accompanied by the information and documents required for it. TVT may also conduct a reconciliation on its own at any time by reviewing Merchant(s)’s Receivables covering the period from the date of this Agreement until the date of initiation of the reconciliation, each such reconciliation will be completed within two business days after its initiation, and TVT will give each Merchant written notice of the determination made based on the reconciliation within one business day after its completion. If a reconciliation determines that TVT collected more than it was entitled to, then TVT will credit to the Account all amounts to which TVT was not entitled and, if there is an Estimated Payment, decrease the amount of the Estimated Payment so that it is consistent with the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables from the date of the Agreement through the date of the reconciliation. If a reconciliation determines that TVT collected less than it was entitled to, then TVT will debit from the Account all additional amounts to which TVT was entitled and, if there is an Estimated Payment, increase the amount of the Estimated Payment so that it is consistent with the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables from the date of the Agreement through the date of the reconciliation. Nothing herein limits the amount of times that a reconciliation may be requested or conducted. 5. Merchant Deposit Agreement. Merchant(s) shall appoint a bank acceptable to TVT, to obtain electronic fund transfer services and/or “ACH” payments. Merchant(s) shall provide TVT and/or its authorized agent with all of the information, authorizations, and passwords necessary to verify each Merchant’s Receivables. Merchant(s) shall authorize TVT and/or its agent(s) to deduct the amounts owed to TVT for the Receivables as specified herein from settlement amounts which would otherwise be due to each Merchant and to pay such amounts to TVT by permitting TVT to withdraw the Specified Percentage by ACH debiting of the account. The authorization shall be irrevocable as to each Merchant absent TVT’s written consent until the Receivables Purchased Amount has been paid in full or the Merchant becomes bankrupt or goes out of business without any prior default under this Agreement. 6. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement is indefinite and shall continue until TVT receives the full Receivables Purchased Amount, or earlier if terminated pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. The provisions of Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 22, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, and 51 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 7.

Each Merchant acknowledges that it is entering into this Agreement in the ordinary course of its business and that the payments to be made from each Merchant to TVT under this Agreement are being made in the ordinary course of each Merchant’s business. 8.

A photocopy of this authorization will be deemed as acceptable for release of financial information. TVT is authorized to update such information and financial profiles from time to time as it deems appropriate. 9. Monitoring, Recording, and Electronic Communications. TVT may choose to monitor and/or record telephone calls with any Merchant and its owners, employees, and agents. By signing this Agreement, each Merchant agrees that any call between TVT and any Merchant or its representatives may be monitored and/or recorded. Each Merchant and each Guarantor grants access for TVT to enter any Merchant’s premises and to observe any Merchant’s premises without any prior notice to any Merchant at any time after execution of this Agreement. TVT may use automated telephone dialing, text messaging systems, and e-mail to provide messages to Merchant(s), Owner(s) (Owner being defined as each person who signs this Agreement on behalf of a Merchant), and Guarantor(s) about Merchant(s)’s account. Telephone messages may be played by a machine automatically when the telephone is answered, whether answered by an Owner, a Guarantor, or someone else. These messages may also be recorded by the recipient’s answering machine or voice mail. Each Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor gives TVT permission to call or send a text message to any telephone number given to TVT in connection with this Agreement and to

Each Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor acknowledge that when they receive such calls or electronic communications, they may incur a charge from the company that provides them with telecommunications, wireless, and/or Internet services, and that TVT has no liability for any such charges. 10. Accuracy of Information Furnished by Merchant and Investigation Thereof. To the extent set forth herein, each of the parties is obligated upon his, her, or its execution of the Agreement to all terms of the Agreement. Each Merchant and each Owner signing this Agreement represent that he or she is authorized to sign this Agreement for each Merchant, legally binding said Merchant to its obligations under this Agreement and that the information provided herein and in all of TVT’s documents, forms, and recorded interview(s) is true, accurate, and complete in all respects. TVT may produce a monthly statement reflecting the delivery of the Specified Percentage of Receivables from Merchant(s) to TVT. An investigative report may be made in connection with the Agreement. Each Merchant and each Owner signing this Agreement authorize TVT, its agents and representatives, and any credit-reporting agency engaged by TVT, to (i) investigate any references given or any other statements obtained from or about each Merchant or any of its Owners for the purpose of this Agreement, and (ii) pull credit report at any time now or for so long as any Merchant and/or Owners(s) continue to have any obligation to TVT under this Agreement or for TVT’s ability to determine any Merchant’s eligibility to enter into any future agreement with TVT. Any misrepresentation made by any Merchant or Owner in connection with this Agreement may constitute a separate claim for fraud or intentional misrepresentation. Authorization for soft pulls: Each Merchant and each Owner understands that by signing this Agreement, they are providing ‘written instructions’ to TVT under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, authorizing TVT to obtain information from their personal credit profile or other information from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax. Each Merchant and each Guarantor authorizes TVT to obtain such information solely to conduct a pre-qualification for credit. Authorization for hard pulls: Each Merchant and each Owner understands that by signing this Agreement, they are providing ‘written instructions’ to TVT under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, authorizing TVT to obtain information from their personal credit profile or other information from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax.

Each Merchant authorizes its bank to provide TVT with its banking and/or credit card processing history. 12. Indemnification.

No Liability. In no event will TVT be liable for any claims asserted by any Merchant under any legal theory for lost profits, lost revenues, lost business opportunities, exemplary, punitive, special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages, each of which is waived by each Merchant and each Guarantor. 14. Sale of Receivables. Each Merchant and TVT agree that the Purchase Price under this Agreement is in exchange for the Receivables Purchased Amount and that such Purchase Price is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as a loan from TVT to any Merchant. TVT is entering into this Agreement knowing the risks that each Merchant’s business may decline or fail, resulting in TVT not receiving the Receivables Purchased Amount. Any Merchant going bankrupt, going out of business, or experiencing a slowdown in business or a delay in collecting Receivables will not on its own without anything more be considered a breach of this Agreement. Each Merchant agrees that the Purchase Price in exchange for the Receivables pursuant to this Agreement equals the fair market value of such Receivables. TVT has purchased and shall own all the Receivables described in this Agreement up to the full Receivables Purchased Amount as the Receivables are created. Payments made to TVT in respect to the full amount of the Receivables shall be conditioned upon each Merchant’s sale of products and services and the payment therefor by each Merchant’s customers in the manner provided in this Agreement. Each Merchant and each Guarantor acknowledges that TVT does not purchase, sell, or offer to purchase or sell securities and that this Agreement is not a security, an offer to sell any security, or a solicitation of an
DocuSign Envelope ID: 4281D00C-D4C9-40B0-BB18-68BCC9ECF676 Page 5 of 16 STANDARD MERCHANT CASH ADVANCE AGREEMENT offer to buy any security. Although certain jurisdictions require the disclosure of an Annual Percentage Rate or APR in connection with this Agreement, those disclosures do not change the fact that the transaction encompassed by this Agreement is not a loan and does not have an interest rate. If a court or arbitrator determines that TVT has charged or received interest under this Agreement in excess of the highest rate permitted by applicable law, then the rate in effect under this Agreement will automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by applicable law and TVT will promptly refund to Merchant(s) any amount received by TVT that would otherwise be considered interest in excess of the maximum lawful rate, with it being intended that Merchant(s) not pay or contract to pay and that TVT not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by Merchant(s) or received by TVT under applicable law. 15. Power of Attorney. Each Merchant irrevocably appoints TVT as its agent and attorney-in-fact with full authority to take any action or execute any instrument or document to settle all obligations due to TVT for the benefit of each Merchant and only in order to prevent the occurrence of an Event of Default (as described in Section 30). If an Event of Default takes place under Section 30, then each Merchant irrevocably appoints TVT as its agent and attorney-in-fact with full authority to take any action or execute any instrument or document to settle all obligations due to TVT from each Merchant, including without limitation (i) to collect monies due or to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral (which is defined in Section 29); (ii) to receive, endorse and collect any checks, notes, drafts, instruments, documents, or chattel paper in connection with clause (i); (iii) to sign each Merchant’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, or assignment directing customers or account debtors to make payment directly to TVT; and (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceeding which TVT may deem necessary for the collection of any of the unpaid Receivables Purchased Amount from the Collateral, or otherwise to enforce its rights with respect to payment of the Receivables Purchased Amount. 16. Protections Against Default. The following Protections 1 through 6 may be invoked by TVT, immediately and without notice to any Merchant if any Event of Default listed in Section 30 has occurred.

TVT may enforce the provisions of the Guarantee against Guarantor. Protection 3. TVT may enforce its security interest in the Collateral identified in Section 29. Protection 4. TVT may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and remedies by litigation or arbitration. Protection 5. TVT may debit any Merchant’s depository accounts wherever situated by means of ACH debit or electronic or facsimile signature on a computer-generated check drawn on any Merchant’s bank account or otherwise, in an amount consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Protection 6. TVT will have the right, without waiving any of its rights and remedies and without notice to any Merchant and/or Guarantor, to notify each Merchant’s credit card and/or check processor and account debtor(s) of the sale of Receivables hereunder and to direct such credit card processor and account debtor(s) to make payment to TVT of all or any portion of the amounts received by such credit card processor and account debtor(s) on behalf of each Merchant. Each Merchant hereby grants to TVT an irrevocable power-of-attorney, which power-of-attorney will be coupled with an interest, and hereby appoints TVT and its representatives as each Merchant’s attorney-in-fact to take any and all action necessary to direct such new or additional credit card and/or check processor and account debtor(s) to make payment to TVT as contemplated by this Section. 17. Protection of Information. Each Merchant and each person signing this Agreement on behalf of each Merchant and/or as Owner, in respect of himself or herself personally, authorizes TVT to disclose information concerning each Merchant, Owner and/or Guarantor’s credit standing and business conduct to agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, and credit reporting bureaus. Each Merchant, Guarantor, and Owner hereby waives to the maximum extent permitted by law any claim for damages against TVT or any of its affiliates relating to any (i) investigation undertaken by or on behalf of TVT as permitted by this Agreement or (ii) disclosure of information as permitted by this Agreement. 18. Confidentiality. Each Merchant understands and agrees that the terms and conditions of the products and services offered by TVT, including this Agreement and any other TVT documents (collectively, “Confidential Information”) are proprietary and confidential information of TVT. Accordingly, unless disclosure is required by law or court order, Merchant(s) shall not disclose Confidential Information of TVT to any person other than an attorney, accountant, financial advisor, or employee of any Merchant who needs to know such information for the purpose of advising any Merchant (“Advisor”), provided such Advisor uses such information solely for the purpose of advising any Merchant and first agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Section 18.

Stacking. Each Merchant represents, warrants, and covenants that it will not enter into with any party other than TVT any arrangement, agreement, or commitment that relates to or involves the Receivables, whether in the form of a purchase of, a loan against, collateral against, or the sale or purchase of credits against Receivables without the prior written consent of TVT. 28.

Each Merchant hereby authorizes TVT to file any financing statements deemed necessary by TVT to perfect or maintain TVT’s security interest, which financing statements may contain notification that each Merchant has granted a negative pledge to TVT with respect to the Collateral and the Cross-Collateral, and that any subsequent lienor may be tortiously interfering with TVT’s rights. Each Merchant shall be liable for and TVT may charge and collect all costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorney fees, which may be incurred by TVT in protecting, preserving, and enforcing TVT’s security interest and rights. Each Merchant further acknowledges that TVT may use another legal name and/or D/B/A or an agent when designating the Secured Party when TVT files the above-referenced financing statement(s). 30.

Remedies. In case any Event of Default occurs and is not waived, TVT may proceed to protect and enforce its rights or remedies by suit in equity or by action at law, or both, whether for the specific performance of any covenant, agreement, or other provision contained herein, or to enforce the discharge of each Merchant’s obligations hereunder, or any other legal or equitable right or remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies of TVT in connection with this Agreement, including each Protection listed in Section 16, may be exercised at any time by TVT after the occurrence of an Event of Default, are cumulative and not exclusive, and will be in addition to any other rights, powers, or remedies provided by law or equity.

From and after the effective date of any such assignment or transfer by TVT, whether or not any Merchant has actual notice thereof, this Agreement and each Related Agreement shall be deemed amended and modified (without the need for any further action on the part of any Merchant or TVT) such that the assignee shall be deemed a party to this Agreement and any such Related Agreement and, to the extent provided in the assignment document between TVT and such assignee (the “Assignment Agreement”), have the rights and obligations of TVT under this Agreement and such Related Agreements with respect to the portion of the Receivables Purchased Amount set forth in such Assignment Agreement, including but not limited to rights in the Receivables, Collateral and Additional Collateral, the benefit of each Guarantor’s guaranty regarding the full and prompt performance of every obligation that is a subject of the Guarantee, TVT’s rights under Section 16 of this Agreement (Protections Against Default), and to receive damages from any Merchant following a breach of this Agreement by any Merchant.
