Representative and/or the Investor, if any.  For purposes of calculating the IRR True-Up Payment Amount, any voluntary prepayments made by the Company to the Investor Representative shall be applied first to the amounts owed by the Company to the Investor Representative and/or the Investor with respect to the Initial Investment Amount, followed by the amounts owed by the Company to the Investor Representative and/or the Investor with respect to each funded tranche of the Second Investment Amount in the order such tranches were funded, beginning with the portion of the Second Investment Amount funded on the first Second Closing Date.  For reference, information on the XIRR function in Microsoft® Excel® is available at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/xirr-function-de1242ec-6477-445b-b11b-a303ad9adc9d.  An illustrative example of the calculation of the IRR True-Up Payment Amount is attached as Exhibit E hereto.”

3


then the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to agree on a revised Comparable Yield within twenty (20) days of the Investor’s objection.  The Parties intend that the provisions of the U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-2(a)(1) would apply, subject to the exceptions in the U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-2(a)(2), to treat any non-contingent payments on the debt instrument and the projected amount of any contingent payments as first, a payment of any accrued and any unpaid original issue discount at such time and second, a payment of principal (including for purposes of the rules applicable to “applicable high yield discount obligations”).  The Parties agree not to take and to not cause or permit their Affiliates to take, any position that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 6.22(a) on any U.S. federal, state or local income Tax return or for any other U.S. federal, state or local income Tax purpose, unless required by Applicable Law or the good faith resolution of a Tax audit or other Tax proceeding.”

5.Amendment to Section 8.1(b). Section 8.1(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

6.Amendment to Section 8.3.  Section 8.3 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
