(the “Bank”), at its offices located at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017, or at such other place as the Bank or any holder hereof may from time to time designate, the lesser of (i) the principal sum of TWENTY FIVE MILLION and no/100 DOLLARS ($25,000,000) and (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans (as hereinafter defined) evidenced hereby, in lawful money of the United States, on September 24, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”) (or such earlier date as shall be specified by the Bank in accordance with the terms of this promissory note (this “Note”)), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of each Loan at a rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined).

Each Loan shall bear interest at the interest rate agreed between the Borrower and the Bank as the interest rate to be paid to the Bank on such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Note (each such rate, the “Applicable Interest Rate”). The Applicable Interest Rate for any Loan shall be, at the Borrower's option and in accordance herewith and accepted by the Bank in its sole discretion, (a) the CB Floating Rate (as hereinafter defined) plus the Applicable Margin (as hereinafter defined) (the “CB Floating Rate Loan(s)”), (b) a fixed rate of interest per annum determined by and available at the Bank in its sole discretion (the “Fixed Rate”) for the applicable Interest Period (as hereinafter defined) (the “Fixed Rate Loan(s)”) or (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as hereafter defined) plus the Applicable Margin (the “LIBOR Loan(s)”, and, together with the CB Floating Rate Loans and Fixed Rate Loans, each a “Loan” and collectively, “Loans”). Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan and, if such Interest Period is in excess of three (3) months, on the last day of each three (3) month interval after the date such Loan is made, at maturity (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and thereafter, on demand. Any Loan not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate two percent (2%) per annum above the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin, but in no event higher than the maximum permitted under applicable law. All interest hereunder shall be computed for actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year.

The Bank is authorized to enter on the Bank’s books and records, which may be electronic in nature and, at the Bank’s sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time (including, without limitation, prior to any transfer of the Note), on a schedule to be attached to this Note by the Bank: (i) the amount of each Loan, (ii) the date on which each Loan is made, (iii) the date on which each Loan shall be due and payable to the Bank, provided that all Loans shall be due and payable no later than the Maturity Date, (iv) the Applicable Interest Rate to be paid to the Bank on each Loan, (v) the amount of each payment made hereunder and the Loans to which such payment shall be applied (which shall be at the discretion of the Bank), and (vi) the outstanding principal balance of the Loans from time to time. At the discretion of the Bank, any such entries may aggregate Loans (and payments thereon) with the same interest rate and tenor and, if made on a given date, may show only the Loans outstanding on such date. Any such entries shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. The failure by the Bank to make any or all such entries shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligation to pay any and all amounts due hereunder.

The Borrower shall not have the right to prepay any Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period. In the event the Borrower does prepay a LIBOR Loan or a Fixed Rate Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall reimburse the Bank on demand for any loss incurred or to be incurred by it. CB Floating Rate Loans may be prepaid by the Borrower at any time upon at least 1 Business Day’s (as hereinafter defined) prior written notice the Bank without premium or penalty. Any prepayment of any Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period shall be accompanied by the payment on demand of the indemnity amount required under the Indemnity section below. Any prepayment shall also be accompanied by the payment of interest accrued and unpaid on the principal amount to the date of prepayment.

The Bank, pursuant to a letter dated of even date herewith, has approved an uncommitted line of credit (the “Line of Credit”) to the Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this Note. The execution and delivery of this Note and the acceptance by the Bank of this Note shall not be deemed or construed to create any contractual commitment to lend to the Borrower on the part of the Bank. The Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make Loans to the Borrower from time to time pursuant to the Line of Credit. This Note evidences the Borrower’s obligations to repay those Loans. The aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans evidenced by this Note is the amount so reflected from time to time in the records of the Bank or a schedule attached hereto. This Note is secured by cash collateral pursuant to an assignment of deposits. Each LIBOR Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 and in increments of $100,000. Each Fixed Rate Loan shall be in integral multiples of

$100,000. Each CB Floating Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each request for a Loan shall be made by an officer of the Borrower or other person designated in writing by an officer of the Borrower, all of whom are hereby designated and authorized by the Borrower to request Loans and agree to the terms thereof (including without limitation the Applicable Interest Rate and Interest Period with respect thereto). The Borrower shall give the Bank notice not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time) (i) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, at least three (3) Business Days (as hereinafter defined) prior to the date (which shall be a Business Day) of the proposed borrowing of (or continuation of any existing LIBOR Loan or conversion of any CB Floating Rate Loan or Fixed Rate Loan to) such LIBOR Loan, specifying the Interest Period applicable thereto, and (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Loan or CB Floating Rate Loan, by noon (Eastern time) on the date (which shall be a Business Day) of the proposed borrowing of such CB Floating Rate Loan or Fixed Rate Loan, specifying the Interest Period applicable thereto. If no election as to the type of Loan or Interest Period is specified, any requested Loan shall be deemed to bear interest at the applicable CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin and shall have an Interest Period of one month. If no election as to the Interest Period is specified in the case of a LIBOR Loan, the LIBOR Loan shall be deemed to have an Interest Period of one month. The principal amount of each Loan shall be repaid on the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) the end of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, and (iii) the date upon which the entire unpaid balance hereof shall otherwise become due and payable. In addition, Loans shall be prepaid with the proceeds of any reimbursement by the USDA to Borrower for capital expenditures/greenhouse improvements made by Borrower with the proceeds of any Loan; any Loans prepaid by such amount may not be reborrowed.

If any there is any change, after the date of this Note, to any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, government rule or regulation or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law) (a “Change in Law”), and

such Change in Law (a) shall affect the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of any amounts payable by the Borrower under or otherwise with respect to this Note or any other agreements or instruments executed in connection herewith (such other agreements or instruments, collectively the “Related Documents”) (other than Taxes (as hereinafter defined)), or (b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Bank (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate), or (c) shall impose on the Bank any other condition, cost or expense with respect to this Note or the Related Documents, or (d) regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of the Bank or its holding company as a consequence of the Borrower’s obligations under this Note or the Related Documents, to a level below that which the Bank or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Bank’s and its holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), and the result of any of the foregoing items (a), (b), (c) or (d) is to increase the cost to the Bank of extending, maintaining or funding any Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Bank under this Note or any Related Document by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time to time, within 1 Business Day of a receipt of a request therefor from the Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for the increased cost or reduction suffered. Whenever the Bank shall learn of circumstances described in this section which are likely to result in additional costs to the Borrower, the Bank shall give prompt written notice to the Borrower of the basis for and the estimated amount of any such anticipated additional costs. A statement as to the amount of the increased cost or reduced sum receivable, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by the Bank to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to be a “Change in Law” regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

Any and all payments made by the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, assessments, fees or other charges, excluding any taxes imposed on the overall net income of the Bank, franchise taxes imposed on the Bank (in lieu of net income taxes) and any branch profits taxes imposed on the Bank by the jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority as a result of the Bank being organized or having its principal office in such jurisdiction (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, assessments, fees or other charges being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this section) the Bank receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Note or the Related Documents.

If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or regulation now or hereafter in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to maintain or fund the LIBOR Loans, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank, the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Loans, together with accrued interest and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Note or the Related Documents on account of the LIBOR Loans shall be repaid (a) immediately upon the Bank's demand if such change or compliance with such requests, in the Bank's judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request. The option of the Borrower to request LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrower that such Loans are no longer unlawful or impossible.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank against (i) any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of the occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) any other loss or expense sustained or incurred in respect of the Loans, including, without limitation, in connection with obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties as a consequence of the conversion of any Loan from one interest rate to another or the payment or prepayment of any principal of any Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan by the Borrower (in either case, whether pursuant to a default, change in legality or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period therefor, or the failure by the Borrower to borrow, prepay, convert or continue any Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan or part thereof on the date specified therefor in any notice given by the Borrower. In the case of a LIBOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Bank to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, (a) in the case of a payment or prepayment thereof on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period therefor, for the period from the date of such payment or prepayment to the last day of such Interest Period or (b) in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan, over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which the Bank would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. The Bank shall provide to the Borrower a statement, supported where applicable by documentary evidence, setting forth the amount of any such loss or expense, which statement shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The Bank is authorized (but not obligated) to debit any deposit account of the Borrower now or hereafter maintained by the Borrower with the Bank to pay any amount that is not paid when due under this Indemnity section and also for interest payments due under this Note.

If the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate (as hereinafter defined)) the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, or (b) the relevant interest rates referred to in the definition of LIBO Rate do not accurately cover the cost to the Bank of making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Loans, then the Bank shall notify the Borrower of such circumstances, whereupon (i) the option of the Borrower to request LIBOR Loans shall be suspended

until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension no longer exist, and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Loan, together with accrued interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan. If the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) on any day that the Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate cannot be ascertained (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate) for purposes of determining the interest rate on any CB Floating Rate Loan as provided in this Note, then each CB Floating Rate Loan shall bear interest at the higher of the Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined) or 2.5% plus the Applicable Margin for CB Floating Rate Loans until the Bank determines that the Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate can be ascertained.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Related Document, if a LIBOR Cessation Event has occurred, then upon written notice by the Bank to the Borrower at a time selected by the Bank, but not later than the actual date of permanent cessation of the LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate shall be replaced, for all purposes hereunder and under any other Related Document, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of, any other party to this Note or any Related Document, by (i) the sum of Term SOFR and the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment (such sum, the “Adjusted Term SOFR”) if the Term SOFR Transition Conditions are satisfied at such time, or (ii) the sum of Daily Simple SOFR and the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment (such sum, the “Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR”) if the Term SOFR Transition Conditions are not satisfied; provided that if the Term SOFR Transition Conditions are satisfied after the LIBO Rate is replaced by the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, the Bank may by at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower, replace such rate with the Adjusted Term SOFR. In the event that either the Adjusted Term SOFR or the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR shall be less than zero, such rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. If a LIBOR Cessation Event references a future date for cessation, the LIBOR Rate shall not be replaced before 90 days prior to the announced cessation date, unless the Bank and the Borrower agree otherwise. If a LIBOR Cessation Event shall have occurred and neither Term SOFR nor Daily Simple SOFR is available, then upon written notice by the Bank to the Borrower until such rates are available, the then outstanding Loan shall accrue interest at the higher of Prime or 2.5%, unless the Bank and the Borrower agree on a different rate. For avoidance of doubt, if some interest periods for the LIBO Rate become unavailable prior to a LIBOR Cessation Event, those interest periods will no longer be available for selection by the Borrower.

In connection with the implementation of a rate replacement described in the paragraph immediately above, the Bank may from time to time, upon written notice to the Borrower, make any technical, administrative or operational changes to this Note or any Related Documents (including changes to the definition of “CB Floating Rate,” the definition of “Business Day”, the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, the timing of prepayment or conversion notices, the length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Bank decides in its reasonable discretion may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such rate replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Bank.
