(a) Loan. Lender hereby establishes for Borrowers a revolving line of credit in the principal amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00), less any principal reduction required under paragraph 3 of this Agreement.

(b) Use of Proceeds . The proceeds of the Loan may be used to fund in part a closing of the MFAC Transaction and for general working capital purposes, with advances to be made at Borrowers’ request subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 of this Agreement.

(c) Revolving Credit. Borrowers may borrow, repay and re-borrow on the Loan during the Term up to but not exceeding the Borrowing Base.

(d) Borrowers' Account. All advances made on the Loan shall be deemed to be made for the account of both Borrowers irrespective of the use made by any Borrower of the funds so advanced.

(e) No Set Off. All amounts owing to Lender shall be paid in U.S. dollar funds without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature.

3. Permanent Principal Reductions. Upon closing of the Merger Transaction, fifty percent (50%) of the cash remaining in the MFAC Trust Account in excess of $10,000,000 shall constitute a permanent reduction of the maximum principal amount of the Loan. In addition, fifty (50%) of any new capital raised by either Borrower shall be applied as a permanent reduction of the principal of the Loan.

4. Note. The obligation of Borrowers to repay the Loan shall be evidenced by this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Borrowers shall execute and deliver the Note to Lender.

5. Interest/Late Charge.

(a) Interest Rate. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Note shall accrue at an adjustable rate equal to 30 Day LIBOR plus the Margin, per annum (the “Interest Rate”). The Interest Rate is subject to adjustment from time to time based on changes in LIBOR. Adjustments, if any, shall become effective on the 1^st day of every month, beginning February 1, 2021.

(b) LIBOR Replacement. If the Lender determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that: (1) by reason of circumstances affecting the London Interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR; (2) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost to the Lender of the Loan; or (c) a Regulatory Change (as hereinafter defined) shall, in the reasonable determination of the Lender, make it unlawful or commercially unreasonable for the Lender to use LIBOR as the index for purposes of determining the Interest Rate, then: (i) LIBOR shall be replaced with an alternative or successor rate or index chosen by the Lender in its reasonable discretion; and (ii) the Margin may also be adjusted by Lender in its reasonable discretion, giving due consideration to market convention for determining rates of interest on comparable loans. “Regulatory Change” shall mean a change in any applicable law, treaty, rule, regulation or guideline, or the interpretation or administration thereof, by the administrator of the relevant benchmark or its regulatory supervisor, any governmental authority, central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority having jurisdiction over Lender or its lending office.

(c) Conversion. Upon fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice to Lender, Borrowers may elect to convert the Interest Rate from LIBOR plus the Margin to the Base Rate with any such change to become effective on the first day of the month following Borrowers’ notice to Lender of its election to effect a conversion.

(d) Interest Calculation. Interest shall be computed on a 365/360 basis by applying the ratio of the Interest Rate over a year of 360 days multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All interest payable under this Note is computed using this method.

(e) Late Charge. In the event any payment of interest and/or principal owing on the Loan is not made within ten (10) days of its due date, Borrowers will pay to Lender a late charge in an amount equal to five (5%) percent of any such past due amount.

(f) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Loan Documents, or non-payment upon demand after an Event of Default, the rate of interest on the unpaid principal balance shall, at the option of Lender, be five percent (5%) in excess of the rate of interest provided above (the “Default Rate”). Borrower acknowledges that: (1) the Default Rate is a material inducement to Lender to make the Loan; (2) Lender would not have made the Loan in the absence of the agreement of Borrower to pay the Default Rate; (3) the Default Rate represents compensation for the increased risk to Lender that the Loan might not be repaid in full; and (4) the Default Rate is not a penalty and represents a reasonable estimate of (i) the cost to Lender in allocating its resources (both personnel and financial) to the on-going review, monitoring, administration and collection of the Loan, and (ii) compensation to Lender for losses that are difficult to ascertain.

(g) Interest Accrual. Interest shall continue to accrue on the principal of the Loan at the rates specified above notwithstanding any demand for payment, acceleration and/or the entry of judgment against Borrowers until all Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full.

(h) Maximum Rate. In no event shall interest, charges or other amounts that are contracted for, charged or received by Lender pursuant to any Loan Documents and that are deemed interest under applicable law (“interest”) exceed the highest rate permissible under applicable law (“maximum rate”). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent the foregoing limitation, would have exceeded the maximum rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the maximum rate and, if in a future month, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the maximum rate, then the rate shall remain at the maximum rate until the amount of interest actually paid equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if it had not been limited by the maximum rate. If, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest actually paid under the Loan Documents is less than the total amount of interest that would, but for this paragraph, have accrued under the Loan Documents, then Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay to Lender, (1) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest that would have been charged if the maximum rate had been in effect at all times, or (ii) the amount of interest that would have accrued had the interest rate otherwise set forth in the Loan Documents been in effect, minus the amount of interest actually paid under the Loan Documents. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Lender has received interest in excess of the maximum amount allowed under applicable law, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, Obligations other than interest (regardless of any erroneous application thereof by Lender), and upon payment in full of the Obligations, any balance shall be refunded to Borrowers.

6. Payment of Principal and Interest.

(a) Interest. Interest shall be paid monthly in arrears on the first day of each month during the Term commencing on February 1, 2021.

(b) Principal. The principal of the Loan shall be repaid in full on the Maturity Date.

(c) Auto Debit. Each Borrower irrevocably authorizes Lender to auto-debit Borrowers’ deposit accounts at Lender for the monthly payment of interest due on the Loan.

7. Prepayment. Borrowers may prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.

8. Advances Requests.

(a) Advance Requests. Requests for advances on the Loan (an “Advance Request”) shall be made by the submission by Borrowers to Lender of a Loan Advance Request which shall be accompanied by a current Borrowing Base Certificate.

(b) Limitation on Advances. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, at no time shall the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding at any one time under the Loan exceed the Borrowing Base. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding under the Loan exceeds the Borrowing Base for any reason, Borrowers shall immediately repay the amount of such excess to Lender in immediately available funds.

(c) Advance Representations. Each Loan Advance Request shall constitute a representation by each Borrower that there are no Events of Default or Potential Events of Default that exist as of the submission of a Loan Advance Request, and that each of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are accurate, true, and correct in all material respects as of the date of each Loan Advance Request.

9. Security Agreement. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Lender the Security Agreement.

10. Loan Account. Lender shall open and maintain on its books a loan account (the “Loan Account”) with respect to the Loan, advances made, repayments, the computation and payment of interest and fees, if any, and the computation and final payment of all other amounts due and sums paid to Lender hereunder. Except in the case of error in entry or computation, and as long as advances and repayments are made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding as to the amount at any time due to Lender from Borrowers under this Agreement.

11. Application of Funds. All sums realized by Lender on account of the Obligations, from whatever source received, shall be applied first, to any reasonable fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Lender, second, to accrued and unpaid interest and late charges, and then to principal. Borrowers waive and release any right to require Lender to collect any of the Obligations from any collateral under any theory of marshalling of assets or otherwise. Borrowers authorize Lender to apply the proceeds of any collateral in which each Borrower has/have any right, title or interest against any of the Obligations in any manner or order that Lender may determine.

12. Restricted Account. Lender shall establish on its books a demand deposit account for Borrowers into which Borrowers may deposit funds. Withdrawals from the Restricted Account may only be made on five (5) Business Days' prior written notice to Lender, and will be permitted only to the extent that any such withdrawal, in whole or in part, will not cause the principal amount of the Loan to exceed the Borrowing Base. Lender shall, at all times, retain its right of setoff against the Restricted Account.

13. Closing. Closing hereunder will take place on the Closing Date at the offices of Weir & Partners LLP, Fifth Floor, The Widener Building, One South Penn Square, Philadelphia, PA 19107, or at such other location as the parties may agree.

(d) Negative Pledge.

(b) Any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of either Borrower, or any other information furnished by either Borrower, in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, financial statement or other document furnished to Lender pursuant to the provisions hereof or of any other Loan Document, shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished;

(c) Either Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any non-monetary covenant, condition or provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice specifying such failure; provided, however, that in the event such default cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period and Borrowers shall have commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period, and thereafter proceeds diligently to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for so long as it shall require a Borrower, in the exercise of due diligence, to cure such default;

(d) Any lien, charge or encumbrance on, or any security interest or other defect in the title to the either Borrowers’ property shall be created, arise or otherwise come into existence, unless such lien, charge or security interest shall be discharged within thirty (30) days after the date of filing thereof or Borrowers shall contest the same in good faith and post a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to Lender in an amount sufficient to prevent the enforcement of any such lien against their properties together with any costs or penalties associated therewith;

(e) If a final judgment which, with other final judgments against either Borrower would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, shall have been entered against either Borrower or any of their property, and if, within thirty (30) days of the entry thereof, such judgment shall not have been discharged or execution thereof stayed pending appeal, or if, within thirty (30) days after the expiration of any such stay, such judgment shall not have been discharged or bonded;

(f) A proceeding is instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a decree or order for relief in respect of either Borrower in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of either Borrower, or for the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of such, and such proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed and in effect for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days or such court shall enter a decree or order granting the relief sought in such proceeding;

19. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default which is not cured within any applicable cure period, Lender may do any or all of the following: (a) accelerate the maturity of the Note and all amounts payable hereunder and demand immediate payment thereof; (b) pursuant to the Warrant of Attorney contained in the Note, CONFESS JUDGMENT against Borrower and/or commence any other legal action on the Note and the other Loan Documents; (c) exercise its right of set-off as set forth in paragraph 20 below; (d) exercise its rights as a secured party under the Security Agreement and the Uniform Commercial Code; and (e) begin accruing interest at the Default Rate; provided however, no interest shall accrue in excess of the maximum amount then allowed by law.

Such right shall exist whether or not Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or the Note, and whether the Note is matured or unmatured. Borrower hereby confirms Lender’s right of banker’s lien and set-off, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition thereof.

21. Cross-Default/Cross-Collateralization. The Loan, and all collateral described in the Loan Documents shall be cross-defaulted and cross collateralized with all terms, conditions and provisions of all other obligations of Borrowers to Lender whether now existing or hereafter arising. A default in the performance of any obligation of Borrowers under any other agreement with Lender shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents. All collateral security described in the Loan Documents shall constitute collateral security for any other obligation of Borrowers to Lender. All collateral security granted by Borrower to secure any other obligation to Lender shall constitute collateral security for all of the Obligations.

22. Miscellaneous.

The remedies provided herein and in any other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(d) Expenses.
