$6,651,600 (the “SBA Loan”). The incurrence of the SBA Loan requires Agent's and Required Lender's consent under the Credit Agreement, and accordingly, you have requested our consent to incur of the SBA Loan. Agent and Required Lenders hereby consent to the incurrence of the SBA Loan and agree that such SBA Loan shall constitute “Permitted Indebtedness” or “Permitted Debt” (as applicable) under the terms of the Credit Agreement, subject to the following terms and conditions:

(ii) make only regularly scheduled payments of interest accruing on, and to the extent required under, the SBA Loan at a rate not exceeding 1.0% per annum in respect thereof, and (iii) take all actions necessary and promptly file all required reporting to ensure that no less than 90% of the SBA Loan will be forgiven in accordance with the loan forgiveness provisions of the Paycheck Protection Program, and provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent substantiating such forgiveness by the date that is 120 days after the date on which the SBA Loan was incurred.

The Credit Parties agree that any failure to comply with the foregoing conditions shall constitute an immediate and automatic Event of Default.
