WHEREAS, Collateral Agent, Borrower and the Lenders party thereto from time to time have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of May 4, 2021 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which the Lenders have provided to Borrower certain loans in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof;

WHEREAS, Borrower anticipates entering into a certain Asset Purchase Agreement with Alcon Pharmaceuticals Ltd, a Swiss limited company (“Alcon Swiss”) and Alcon Vision, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Alcon Vision” and, together with Alcon Swiss, collectively, “Buyer”), on or about the date hereof, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “APA”);

WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Collateral Agent and Lenders consent to granting of certain Liens by Borrower to Buyer and certain Transfers by Borrower to Buyer, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the APA, as described in Section 2 hereof, to the extent that such consent may be required pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.5 of the Loan Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Collateral Agent and Lenders have agreed to provide such consent, but only to the extent set forth herein, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, Borrower, Lenders and Collateral Agent desire to amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement as provided herein and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

1.

Definitions.  Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

2.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and notwithstanding any restriction set forth in the Loan Documents, Collateral Agent and Lenders hereby consents to Borrower entering into and consummating the transactions set forth in the APA, including without limitation, Transfer of the Acquired Assets (as defined in the APA) by Borrower to Buyer pursuant to and in accordance in all material respects with the terms of the APA (and without any further amendments to the APA that are adverse to the interests of Borrower, the Lenders or the Collateral Agent, or that constitute one or more transactions that would require consent of Required Lenders under Section 7 of the Loan Agreement, unless such amendments are consented to by Collateral Agent, which consent may be provided via email); provided, however, such Transfer must be consummated in accordance with the terms of the APA no later than six months after the effective date of the APA (as such date may be extended with the consent of the Collateral Agent, which consent may be provided via e-mail).  Simultaneously with the Transfer of the Acquired Assets in accordance with the terms of the APA and this Amendment, Collateral Agent hereby releases its Liens on the Acquired Assets, authorizes Borrower or its designee to file a UCC-3 amendment describing the Acquired Assets, and furthermore agrees, solely at the expense of Borrower, to file and prepare any other documents necessary to evidence such release of Liens that Borrower may reasonably request.


For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein constitutes, or is meant to be construed as, a release of Collateral Agent’s Lien on any and all proceeds of the Acquired Assets that are received by or are receivable by Borrower.  The parties hereby agree that all proceeds of the Acquired Assets shall be subject to Collateral Agent’s Lien in accordance with Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement.

3.

Section 2.2(b) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

Repayment.Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest only commencing on the first (1st) Payment Date following the Funding Date of each Term Loan, and continuing on the Payment Date of each successive month thereafter through and including the Payment Date immediately preceding the Amortization Date.  Borrower agrees to pay, on the Funding Date of each Term Loan, any initial partial interest payment otherwise due for the period between the Funding Date of such Term Loan and the first Payment Date thereof.  Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on the Payment Date of each month thereafter, Borrower shall make consecutive equal monthly payments of principal, together with applicable interest, in arrears, to each Lender, as calculated by Collateral Agent (which calculations shall be deemed correct absent manifest error) based upon: (1) the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan, (2) the effective rate of interest, as determined in Section 2.3(a), and (3) a repayment schedule equal to (i) eighteen (18) months, if the I/O Extension Event does not occur and (ii) five (5) months, if the I/O Extension Event occurs.    All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to each Term Loan is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.  Each Term Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) and 2.2(d).

4.

Section 2.2(c) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

Mandatory Prepayments.If the Term Loans are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lenders, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (ii) the Final Payment, (iii) the Prepayment Fee on the amount outstanding on the prepayment date, plus (iv) all other Obligations that are due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts. Notwithstanding (but without duplication with) the foregoing, on the Maturity Date, if the Final Payment had not previously been paid in full in connection with the prepayment of the Term Loans in full, Borrower shall pay to Collateral Agent, for payment to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, the Final Payment in respect of the Term Loan(s).

5.

Section 2.2(d) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(d)Permitted Prepayment of Term Loans.

(i)Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Term Loans advanced by the Lenders under this Agreement, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Collateral Agent of its election to prepay the Term Loans at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays to the Lenders on the date of such prepayment, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of (A) all outstanding principal of the Term Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (B) the Final Payment, (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other Obligations that are due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall also have the option to prepay part of Term Loans advanced by the Lenders under this Agreement, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to Collateral Agent of its election to prepay the Term Loans at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such prepayment, (ii) prepays such part of the Term Loans in a denomination that is a whole number multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), and (iii) pays to the Lenders on the date of such prepayment, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the

2


portion of outstanding principal of such Term Loans plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (B) the applicable Final Payment with respect to to the portion of such Term Loans being prepaid, (C) the applicable Prepayment Fee with respect to the portion of such Term Loans being prepaid, and (D) all other Obligations that are then due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts. For the purposes of clarity, any partial prepayment shall be applied pro-rata to all outstanding amounts under each Term Loan, and shall be applied pro-rata within each Term Loan tranche to reduce amortization payments under Section 2.2(b) on a pro-rata basis.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under clauses (i) and (ii) above if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all or a portion of the Term Loans, which refinancing or transaction shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

(iv)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary promptly upon the Closing (as defined in the APA), Borrower shall make a payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.2(d)(iv) through the prepayment date, and shall make a payment in the aggregate amount of $40,000,000.00, which will be applied as a partial prepayment of principal of the Term Loans advanced by the Lenders under this Agreement in an amount of $36,697,247.71, plus the applicable Prepayment Fee with respect to such prepayment in an amount of $733,944.95, plus the applicable Final  Payment on such principal amount being prepaid in the amount of $2,568,807.34. For the purposes of clarity, any of the prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.2(d)(iv) shall be applied pro-rata to all outstanding amounts under each Term Loan, and shall be applied pro-rata within each Term Loan tranche to reduce amortization payments under Section 2.2(b) on a pro-rata basis.  For the purposes of clarification, the payment Obligations set forth in this Section 2.2(d)(iv) are required upon the occurrence of the Closing (as defined in the APA) and are not optional upon the occurrence of such contingencies, but such payment shall not be a mandatory payment as described in Section 2.2(c) and the Closing (as defined in the APA) and the related payment shall not constitute an acceleration of the Obligations or trigger a Default or Event of Default hereunder.

6.

Section 13.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following definitions thereto in alphabetical order:

APA” is defined in the Second Amendment.

Acquired Assets” is defined in the Second Amendment.

I/O Extension Event” is the prepayment by Borrower of Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000.00) in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2(d)(iv) of this Agreement and the receipt of such prepayment by Lenders.

3


any Final Payment due on the maturity date or upon acceleration shall not include the principal amount prepaid in accordance with Section 2.2(d)(ii) if a Final Payment based on such principal amount prepaid was made at the time of such prepayment.

8.

Effective upon the prepayment made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2(d)(iv) of the Loan Agreement, the Amortization Table attached to the Disbursement Letter entered into as of the Effective Date will be appropriately amended and restated.  For illustarative purposes only, assuming that the prepayment is made during June 2022, the Amortization Table will be amended and restated as set forth on Exhibit E hereto.
