Fifth Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement

On August 13, 2024, Sonder Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an amendment (the “Notes Amendment”), by and among the Company, the subsidiary note obligors party thereto (together with the Company, the “Note Obligors”), the subsidiary guarantors party thereto (the “Guarantors”), the investors party thereto (the “Investors”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as collateral agent (“Agent”), which amended the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 10, 2021, as amended by the Omnibus Amendment dated as of December 21, 2022, the Second Omnibus Amendment dated as of November 6, 2023, the Waiver, Forbearance and Third Amendment dated as of June 10, 2024 and the Fourth Amendment dated July 12, 2024 (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Note Obligors, the Guarantors, the Investors and the Agent, and certain documents related thereto. Among other things, the Notes Amendment (i) extends the maturity date of all outstanding Notes to December 10, 2027, (ii) extends the PIK Interest payments through March 31, 2025 and at the option of the Note Obligors further extends the PIK Interest payments through December 31, 2026 and (iii) provides for additional commitments with an aggregate principal amount of up to $4 million issuable at the Company’s election (the “Additional Commitment”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this section shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Notes Amendment.

Draw-down of Notes

On August 13, 2024, the Company issued (the “Draw”) an aggregate of $4 million of delayed draw subordinated secured notes (the “Notes”), pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, as amended by the Notes Amendment. The Company plans to use the proceeds of the Notes for general corporate purposes.

The foregoing descriptions of the Notes Amendment and the Draw do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Notes Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Fifth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement

On August 13, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment (the “SVB Amendment”), by and among the Company, certain of its domestic subsidiaries party thereto, as co-borrowers (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and Silicon Valley Bank, a division of First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company (“SVB”), as lender, which amended the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 21, 2022, as amended by the First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of April 28, 2023, the Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of November 6, 2023, the Waiver and Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 10, 2024 and the Fourth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated July 12, 2024 (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers and SVB. Among other things, the SVB Amendment provides for SVB’s consent with respect to the Notes Amendment.

SVB and its affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with Borrowers or their affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

The foregoing description of the SVB Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the SVB Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Securities Purchase Agreements

On August 13, 2024, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreements”), with certain qualified institutional buyers or accredited investors (each a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”) (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 43.3 million newly issued shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), in exchange for cash consideration in an aggregate amount of approximately $43.3 million. The sale of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements will take place in two tranches, with the first tranche, comprised of approximately 14.7 million shares of preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $14.7 million, closing on August 13, 2024 and the second tranche, comprised of approximately 28.6 million shares of preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $28.6 million, closing upon the satisfaction of certain closing conditions set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreements, including the Company filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended



March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 (together, the “SEC Documents”). A portion of the Preferred Stock will be immediately convertible into approximately 2.2 million shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Following receipt of Stockholder Approval (as defined below), all 43.3 million shares of the Preferred Stock will be convertible into shares of Common Stock.

The Securities Purchase Agreements require the Company to hold a special meeting of stockholders within 30 calendar days of the filing of the SEC Documents for the purpose of obtaining stockholder approval of proposals to issue shares of Common Stock to the Purchasers in connection with the conversion of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock that would, absent such approval, violate Nasdaq Rules 5635(b), (c) and (d) (the “Stockholder Approval”).

The Securities Purchase Agreements require the Company to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), within 30 calendar days of the filing of the SEC Documents with respect to the resale of shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock.

Francis Davidson, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, and Sanjay Banker, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, are parties to Securities Purchase Agreements, with commitments of approximately $1,500,000, and $100,000, respectively, in the Private Placement. Mr. Davidson and Mr. Banker have each agreed that they may not convert any shares of Preferred Stock to Common Stock prior to the Company’s receipt of stockholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635(c).

The Securities Purchase Agreements grant the Purchasers the right to purchase up to 25% of any equity offering within the next five years (a “Subsequent Financing”). The Purchasers are entitled to participate on a pro-rata basis (determined by their proportionate participation in the Private Placement) at a purchase price equal to 75% of the purchase price of any other investor in such Subsequent Financing.

The Securities Purchase Agreements contain customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and the Purchasers.

The shares of Preferred Stock issued and sold in the Private Placement are being issued and sold in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506(b) thereunder.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Form of Securities Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Voting Agreements

On August 13, 2024, the Company entered into agreements with holders of approximately 53% of its outstanding shares of Common Stock pursuant to which the stockholder parties thereto agreed to vote in favor of the Stockholder Approval.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Form of Voting Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

License Agreement

On August 13, 2024, the Company entered into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Marriott International, Inc. and Global Hospitality Licensing S.À R.L (together, “Marriott”), pursuant to which the Company’s portfolio of properties (each, a “Property” and, collectively, the “Properties”) is expected to join the Marriott system under a newly-created collection called “Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy.” Other capitalized terms used in this Item 1.01, unless defined herein, have the meanings assigned to such terms in the License Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the License Agreement, the Properties will become available for booking on Marriott’s digital platforms, including Marriott.com and the Marriott Bonvoy mobile app. Sonder will also gain access to Marriott’s global sales and marketing capabilities and distribution platform.

The initial term of the License Agreement will expire 20 years after the Initial Onboarding Date, subject to extension for two consecutive five-year renewal terms unless either the Company or Marriott deliver written notice of its election not to renew



at least six months prior to the expiration of the applicable term. The License Agreement also includes other rights and provisions related to the term of the agreement.

The Company must comply with certain Marriott standards, including, among others, those related to data privacy, cyber security, fire protection and life safety, third party distributions and use of intellectual property, but the Properties will otherwise generally follow Sonder design, maintenance, renovation and operating standards. The License Agreement contains customary franchise terms, conditions and requirements, including with respect to the Company’s record-keeping and accounting statement deliverables, and Marriott’s audit and inspection rights.

In consideration of the services and the license provided to the Company by Marriott, beginning on the Initial Onboarding Date, the Company will pay Marriott a royalty fee that increases over the first few years, up to a specified maximum, and various other fees, charges and costs. The Company and Marriott will each pay its own technology and systems integration and launch costs.

Subject to the Company providing Marriott with reasonably satisfactory evidence that the Company has funded the Holistic Capital Solution and there being no monetary, bankruptcy related or exclusivity default by the Company under the License Agreement, Marriott will provide the Company with $15.0 million of Key Money in two tranches by March 31, 2025. If the License Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Company must reimburse Marriott, before the effective date of the termination, the Unamortized Key Money.

During the first two years of the License Agreement term, Marriott has agreed not to open any properties pursuant to an agreement for a Platform Transaction with certain specified Sonder competitors, subject to certain exclusions. For the duration of the term, Marriott has agreed that it will designate Sonder as an approved operator for the Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy brand worldwide, subject to standard terms and processes for retaining approved operator status on an ongoing basis. Also for the duration of the License Agreement term, the Company has agreed not to open any Lodging Facility, unless the Company first proposes that it be included under the License Agreement and Marriott confirms it is restricted from being included, in which case, the exclusivity will not apply so long as any third party that Sonder contracts with regarding such opening is not a Marriott Competitor.

Following the fifth anniversary of the License Agreement, the Company and Marriott will each have the right to terminate the License Agreement upon notice to the other party and payment of a termination fee and unamortized key money upon any transfer (or series of transfers) of: (i) 50% of more of the direct or indirect ownership interests in the Company to any Non-Controlled Person; (ii) 50% or more of the Company’s direct or indirect ownership interests in all of the Properties to any Non-Controlled Person; or (iii) the right to control the day-to-day management or operations of the Company or each Company party that owns, leases or operates a Property to any Non-Controlled Person.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the License Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.03     Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws




In connection with the Company’s consummation of the Private Placement, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) creating the Preferred Stock and establishing the rights, preferences and other terms of the Preferred Stock, which will be in addition to any rights and preferences of the Company’s preferred stock provided for in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. The Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up.

Dividends; Stated Maturity; Voting

Holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the board of directors of the Company, cumulative dividends in cash (subject to certain conditions), at a rate of (a) fifteen percent (15.00%) from August 13, 2024 through August 13, 2025, (b) ten percent (10.00%) from August 14, 2025 through August 13, 2027, and (c) five percent (5.00%) from August 14, 2027 through August 13, 2028 on the sum of (i) the liquidation preference per share of Preferred Stock and (ii) all accumulated and unpaid dividends (if any), payable quarterly, in arrears. Dividends accumulate on a daily basis from the most recent date as to which dividends have been paid, or, if no dividends have been paid, from the date of issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock (whether or not (i) any of the Company’s agreements prohibit the current payment of dividends, (ii) there shall be earnings or funds of the Company legally available for the payment of such dividends or (iii) the Company declares the payment of dividends), until the earlier of: (i) the date that the Company publicly reports that it has realized at least $87 million of free cash flow (representing cash used in operating activities plus cash used in investing activities) over a twelve month period; or (ii) August 13, 2028.

The Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless converted into Common Stock. The Preferred Stock will be convertible at the holders’ option into Common Stock at an initial conversion price of the lower of (i) $1.00 and (ii) a ten percent (10%) discount to the lowest daily VWAP of the Common Stock on the principal trading market therefor in the seven (7) trading days prior to the date of delivery of an Optional Conversion Notice (as defined in the Certificate of Designation); provided that the conversion price will not be less than $0.50, as adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, combinations or other similar events on the Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

In the event of a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), any holder of Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of its Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) the liquidation preference, plus an amount equal to all accumulated and unpaid dividends on such shares (including dividends accrued and unpaid on previously unpaid dividends) or (ii) the amount that such holder would have received in the Fundamental Change on an as-converted basis.

Until the Company has obtained the requisite Stockholder Approval, the holders of the Preferred Stock will not have any right to vote together with any other class of stock on any matters. Once the Stockholder Approval is obtained, holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote on an as-converted-to-Common-Stock basis as provided in the Certificate of Designation, have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the holders of the Common Stock, and will be entitled to vote together with the Common Stock with respect to any question upon which holders of Common Stock have the right to vote. In addition, approval of holders of 70% of the shares of Preferred Stock is required to among other things (i) alter or change the terms of the Preferred Stock or of any other capital stock of the Company so as to affect adversely the Preferred Stock, (ii) create, authorize the creation of, or issue any Senior Securities or Parity Securities (as such terms are defined in the Certificate of Designation) to the Preferred Stock as to dividend, redemption or distribution of assets upon a Fundamental Change, (iii) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock, (iv) other than in connection with the Stockholder Approval, prior to July 1, 2025 increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, (v) issue more than a number of shares of Common Stock set forth in the Certificate of Designation prior to July 1, 2025, or (vi) issue any Preferred Stock except pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements.

Liquidation Preference

The Preferred Stock will have a liquidation preference equal to the original issue price of $1.00 per share of Preferred Stock, as adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events on the Preferred Stock.

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Designation and the Preferred Stock does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Designation and Form of Securities Purchase Agreements, which are attached as Exhibits 3.1 and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an agreement with certain purchasers, dated as of the date hereof (the “Purchase Agreement”), to sell shares of a series of Preferred Stock that are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”).
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, a series of Preferred Stock with the designations, powers, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, as provided herein is hereby authorized and established as follows:
Section 1.Designation of Name and Amount. This series of Preferred Stock is designated the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). The number of shares constituting the Series A Preferred Stock is 43,300,000.
Section 2.Rank. The Series A Preferred Stock ranks, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company:
(a)senior in preference and priority to all classes or series of Common Stock and special voting common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Special Voting Common Stock”), and each other class or series of equity security of the Company, the terms of which do not expressly provide that it ranks senior in preference or priority to or on parity, without preference or priority, with the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights or rights



upon a Fundamental Change (as defined below) (collectively with the Common Stock and Special Voting Common Stock, the “Junior Securities”);
(b)on parity, without preference and priority, with each other class or series of equity security of the Company, the terms of which expressly provide that it will rank on parity, without preference or priority, with the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights or rights upon a Fundamental Change (collectively, the “Parity Securities”); and
(c)junior in preference and priority to each other class or series of equity security of the Company the terms of which expressly provide that it will rank senior in preference or priority to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights or rights upon a Fundamental Change (collectively, the “Senior Securities”).
Section 3.Dividends.
(a)The shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall accumulate cumulative dividends at a rate per annum equal to the Dividend Rate on the amount equal to the sum of (i) the Liquidation Preference plus (ii) all accumulated and unpaid dividends on such shares (including dividends accrued and unpaid on previously unpaid dividends). Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall be payable quarterly in arrears on November 13, February 13, May 13 and August 13 of each year (each, a “Dividend Payment Date”), beginning on November 13, 2024, at the Dividend Rate. Dividends shall accumulate on a daily basis from the most recent date as to which dividends have been paid, or, if no dividends have been paid, from the date of issuance of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (whether or not (i) any of the Company’s agreements prohibit the current payment of dividends, (ii) there shall be earnings or funds of the Company legally available for the payment of such dividends or (iii) the Company declares the payment of dividends), until the earlier of: (i) the date that the Company publicly reports that it has realized at least $87 million of free cash flow (representing cash used in operating activities plus cash used in investing activities) over a twelve month period; or (ii) August 13, 2028.
(b)Declared dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be payable solely in cash; provided, however, the Company may not make cash payments of declared dividends (i) that would violate the terms of the debt agreements listed in Schedule 3.9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement or (ii) without the prior written consent of Holders (as defined below) representing 70% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding (the “Requisite Holders”). All cash payments to which Holders shall be entitled in connection with a declared dividend will be rounded to the nearest cent. Declared dividends shall be payable to the Holders as they appear on the Company’s stock register at the Close of Business on the relevant Dividend Record Date. Dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock for any period less than a full quarterly dividend period (based upon the number of days elapsed during the period) shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year.
(c)In the event that the Company shall declare any other dividend or make any other distribution in cash or other property or assets of the Company to holders of Common Stock, then the Board shall declare, and the holder of each share of Series A Preferred Stock
2



shall be entitled to receive, a dividend or distribution equal to that receivable by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible on the record date of such dividend or distribution to holders of Common Stock. Any such amount shall be paid to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (“Holders” and each, a “Holder”) at the same time such dividend or distribution is made to holders of Common Stock, and no dividends will be payable to holders of shares of Common Stock unless dividends are also paid at the same time in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock.
(d)If any Dividend Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest or dividends on such payment will accrue or accumulate, as the case may be, in respect of the delay.
(e)Accumulated dividends in respect of any preceding dividend periods may be paid on any date (whether or not such date is a Dividend Payment Date) when, as and if declared by the Board.
(f)Holders at the Close of Business on a Dividend Record Date shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, out of funds legally available for payment, the dividend payment on their respective shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion of such shares following such Dividend Record Date or the Company’s default in the payment of the dividend due on such Dividend Payment Date; provided, however, that shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to which an Optional Conversion Date occurs during the period between the Close of Business on any Dividend Record Date and the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding the corresponding Dividend Payment Date shall only be entitled to the dividends accrued and unpaid through the Optional Conversion Date.
(g)The Holders shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions except as provided herein.
Section 4.Optional Conversion.
(a)Optional Conversion Right. Each Holder will have the right to convert some or all of their Series A Preferred Stock (the “Optional Conversion Right”) at any time and from time to time into a number of shares of Common Stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to (x) the Liquidation Preference, plus an amount equal to all accumulated and unpaid dividends on such shares (including dividends accrued and unpaid on previously unpaid dividends) divided by (y) the Optional Conversion Price.
(b)Optional Conversion Procedures. A Holder shall exercise its Optional Conversion Right by providing written notice to the Company of its intent to convert and the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted (the “Optional Conversion Notice”), a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Company shall fix the Optional Conversion Date in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Designation. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date of receipt of an Optional Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by email an acknowledgment of confirmation, in the form attached
3



hereto as Exhibit B, of receipt of such Optional Conversion Notice to such Holder and the Transfer Agent, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Optional Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. The conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been effected at the close of business on the date of the delivery of the Optional Conversion Notice. At such time: (i) each Holder of Series A Preferred Stock immediately before the conversion will be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Conversion Shares represented thereby at such time; (ii) such shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted will no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of a Holder with respect to such shares will immediately terminate except the right to receive the Conversion Shares pursuant to this Section 4.
(c)Conversion and Issuance Limitations.
(i)No Holder will be entitled to receive Conversion Shares or other shares of Common Stock issuable upon redemption, dividend payments, or as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Designation, to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would exceed such Holder’s pro rata portion of the 19.99% Cap or if such conversion would otherwise result in a “change of control” within the meaning of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) (the “Nasdaq Issuance Limitation”), unless the Company shall have obtained the Stockholder Approval, in which case the Nasdaq Issuance Limitation will no longer apply.
(ii)A Holder may notify the Company in writing (which may be by email to legal@sonder.com) in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this Section 4(c)(ii); however, no Holder shall be subject to this Section 4(c)(ii) unless he, she or it makes such election. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Certificate of Designation, if the election is made by a Holder, the Company shall not effect any conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of its Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion set forth on an applicable Optional Conversion Notice with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, such Holder (together with any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holders for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including any “group” of which the Holder is a member) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below) (such number of Conversion Shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the “Excess Conversion Shares”). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock subject to the Optional Conversion Notice with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Holder, and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Holder (including, without limitation, any convertible notes, convertible stock or warrants) that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the
4



preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(c)(ii), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. In addition, for purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. For purposes of this Section 4(c)(ii), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (i) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company that is filed with the SEC or (iii) a more recent notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent to the Holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of a Holder (which may be by email to legal@sonder.com), the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days of such request, confirm in writing to such Holder (which may be via email) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including Series A Preferred Stock, by such Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the Holder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be set at the discretion of any Holder that makes an election between 4.9% and 19.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Optional Conversion Notice (to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 4(c)(ii)). By written notice to the Company, a Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage not in excess of 19.9% specified in such written notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such written notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to such Holder sending such notice and not to any other Holder. The provisions of this Section 4(c)(ii) shall be construed, corrected and implemented in a manner so as to effectuate the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Purchaser for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act.
(d)Validity and Ranking of Conversion Shares. Any Conversion Shares shall be (i) duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and (ii) shall rank pari passu with the other shares of Common Stock outstanding from time to time.
(e)Mechanics of Conversion.
(i)Delivery of Conversion Shares. On the Optional Conversion Date, the Company shall, or shall cause the Transfer Agent to, (1) provided that the Conversion Shares are not required to bear the Restricted Stock Legend pursuant to Section 4.8 of the Purchase Agreement, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled to such Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system, or (2) if the Conversion Shares are required to bear the Restricted Stock Legend pursuant to Section 4.8 of the Purchase Agreement, issue and deliver to
5



the Holder a book-entry statement evidencing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion.
(ii)Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, but in lieu thereof the Company will pay an amount of cash in respect of such fractional interest, if any, equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the then-effective Optional Conversion Price. Whether or not fractional shares would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting and the aggregate number of Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion.
(f)Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates or book-entry statements for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Holder for any documentary, stamp, transfer (but only in respect of the registered holder thereof), issuance or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such.
(g)Adjustment of Fixed Conversion Price.
(i)The Fixed Conversion Price shall be adjusted, without duplication, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(1)Adjustment of Fixed Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Stock. If the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 4(g)(i)(1) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (the “Subsequent Common Stock”) for consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) that is less than the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Conversion Price then in effect is referred to as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then, immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Fixed Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to the New Issuance Price. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Fixed Conversion Price and the New Issuance Price under this Section 4(g)(i)(1)), the following shall be applicable;
a.Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then all such shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Options for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 4(g)(i)(1)(a), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such
6



Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such Option for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person) upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Option (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Fixed Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
b.Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then all such shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 4(g)(i)(1)(b), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Convertible Security for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person) upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Fixed Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Fixed Conversion Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 4(g)(i)(1), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Fixed Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
c.Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time, the Fixed Conversion Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Fixed Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for
7



such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate (as the case may be) at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 4(g)(i)(1)(c), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the First Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(g)(i)(1)(c) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Fixed Conversion Price then in effect above what it was prior to the original adjustment before giving effect to any such increase or decrease.
d.Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Option or Convertible Security is issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Option or Convertible Security), together comprising one integrated transaction (or one or more transactions if such issuances or sales or deemed issuances or sales of securities of the Company either (A) have at least one investor or purchaser in common, (B) are consummated in reasonable proximity to each other and/or (C) are consummated under the same plan of financing) (x) such Option or Convertible Security (as applicable) will be deemed to have been issued for consideration equal to the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board and (y) the other securities issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to have been issued for consideration equal to the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company minus (II) the aggregate fair market value of all such Options and/or Convertible Securities (as applicable) so issued. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount of consideration received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Requisite Holders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Requisite Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
8



e.Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).
(2)If the Company issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share subdivision or share combination, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
        OCP1 = OCP0 ×     OS0    
                 OS
1
where,
OCP0
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share subdivision or share combination, as the case may be;
OCP1
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share subdivision or share combination, as the case may be;
OS0
=the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share subdivision or share combination, as the case may be; and
OS1
=the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend or distribution, or such share subdivision or share combination, as applicable.

Any adjustment made under this Section 4(g)(i)(2) shall become effective immediately after the Close of Business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the Effective Date for such share subdivision or share combination, as the case may be. If any dividend, distribution, share subdivision or share combination of the type described in this Section 4(g)(i)(2) is declared but not so paid or made,
9



the Fixed Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the earlier of (A) the date the Board determines not to pay or make such dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination and (B) the date the dividend or distribution was to be paid or the date the subdivision or combination was to have been effective, to the Fixed Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination had not been declared.
The Company shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury.
(3)If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 60 calendar days after the date of issuance thereof, to purchase or subscribe for shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date of such distribution, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
OCP1 = OCP0 ×         OS0 + Y    
        OS
0 + X
where,
OCP0
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution;
OCP1
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution;
OS0
=the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution;
X=the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y=the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants and (B) the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date of such distribution.
Any adjustment made under this Section 4(g)(i)(3) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution. To the extent that shares of Common
10



Stock are not issued prior to the expiration or termination of such rights, options or warrants, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date of such expiration, to the Fixed Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment with respect to the distribution of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such distribution of rights, options or warrants is not so paid or made, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the earlier of (A) the date the Board determines not to make such distribution and (B) the date such rights, options or warrants were to have been issued, to be the Fixed Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such Record Date for such distribution had not occurred. If such rights, options or warrants are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Fixed Conversion Price shall not be adjusted until the triggering events occur.
For purposes of this Section 4(g)(i)(3), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date of such distribution, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board.
The Company shall not issue any such rights, options or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in treasury.
(4)If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets, securities or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, excluding (A) dividends, distributions, rights, warrants, options or other issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 4(g)(i)(2) or Section 4(g)(i)(3), (B) rights issued to all holders of Common Stock pursuant to a rights plan, where such rights are not presently exercisable, trade with Common Stock and the plan provides that Holders will receive such rights along with any Common Stock received upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and (C) Spin-Offs (as defined below) as to which the provisions set forth below in the last two paragraphs of this Section 4(g)(i)(4) shall apply, then the Fixed Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
OCP1 = OCP0 ×         SP0- FMV    
     SP
0
where,
OCP0
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution;
OCP1
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution;
11



SP0
=the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date for such distribution; and
FMV=the fair market value as of the Record Date for such distribution (as determined in good faith by the Board) of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness, assets, securities, property, rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock.
Any adjustment made under the portion of this Section 4(g)(i)(4) above shall become effective immediately after the Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so made, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the earlier of (A) the date the Board determines not to pay the distribution and (B) the date such dividend or distribution was to have been paid, to be the Fixed Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, each Holder shall receive, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock held by it, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of the Company’s Capital Stock (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness, or other assets, securities or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other securities that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Record Date for the distribution.
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(g)(i)(4) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock (and the Holders do not participate in such payment or other distribution) consisting solely of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company where such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is, or will be when issued, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Fixed Conversion Price will be adjusted based on the following formula:
OCP1 = OCP0 ×     MP0    
         FMV +MP
0
where,
OCP0
=
the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off;
12



OCP1
=
the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off;
FMV=the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off; and
MP0
=the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off.

The adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price under the preceding paragraph shall become effective at the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off; provided that, for purposes of determining the Fixed Conversion Price in respect of any conversion during the ten (10) Trading Days following, and including, the Ex-Date of any Spin-Off, references to “ten (10) consecutive Trading Days” within the portion of this Section 4(g)(i)(4) related to Spin-Offs shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of consecutive Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Date of such Spin-Off and the relevant Conversion Date.
(5)If the Company makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Expiration Date”), the Fixed Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
OCP1 = OCP0 +     SP1 × OS0    
         AC + (SP
1 × OS1)
where,
OCP0
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date;
OCP1
=the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date;
13



AC=the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined in good faith by the Board) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
OS0
=the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Expiration Date (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
OS1
=the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Date (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
SP1
=the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date.

Any adjustment made under this Section 4(g)(i)(5) shall become effective at the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date; provided that, for purposes of determining the Fixed Conversion Price in respect of any conversion during the ten (10) Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, references to “ten (10) consecutive Trading Days” within this Section 4(g)(i)(5) shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of consecutive Trading Days as have elapsed between the Expiration Date for such tender or exchange offer and the relevant Optional Conversion Date.
In the event that the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Fixed Conversion Price shall be readjusted to be such Fixed Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made.
(6)All calculations and other determinations under this Section 4(g)(i) shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share. No adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price shall be made if it results in a Fixed Conversion Price that is less than the par value (if any) of the Common Stock. The Company shall not take any action that would result in the Fixed Conversion Price being less than the par value (if any) of the Common Stock pursuant to this Certificate of Designation and without giving effect to the previous sentence. In addition, the Company will not adjust the Fixed Conversion Price upward (other than in the case of (A) a share combination pursuant to clause (2) above or (B) an expiration or termination of, or failure to distribute, any rights, options or warrants pursuant to the third-to-last paragraph of clause (3) above).
14



(7)In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5) of this Section 4(g)(i), and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of Nasdaq, the Company, from time to time, may reduce the Fixed Conversion Price by any amount for a period of at least twenty Business Days or any longer period permitted or required by law, so long as the reduction is irrevocable during that period and the Board determines that such reduction would be in the Company’s best interest. Whenever the Fixed Conversion Price is reduced pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall send to each Holder at its last address appearing on the stock register of the Company a notice of the reduction at least 15 calendar days prior to the date the reduced Fixed Conversion Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the reduced Fixed Conversion Price and the period during which it will be in effect.
(8)Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 4(g)(i), the Fixed Conversion Price shall not be adjusted for:
a.the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee benefit plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any employee benefit plan;
b.the issuance of Common Stock, options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, or rights to purchase shares, performance units or any other equity incentive instruments or awards pursuant to any present or future employee, director, trustee, advisor or consultant pursuant to a benefit plan, agreement or arrangement or program of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is approved by the Board;
c.the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, obligation or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the date hereof;
d.a change in the par value of Common Stock;
e.accumulated and unpaid dividends or distributions;
f.the issuance of Common Stock, options, warrants, convertible securities or any other securities or rights to a vendor, supplier, franchisor, licensor or commercial partner; and
g.to banks, equipment lessors or other financial institutions or to real property lessors, pursuant to a debt financing, equipment leasing or real property leasing transaction (including any surety or other institution providing security in connection therewith) approved by the Board.
(ii)Except as described in Section 4(g)(i), the Company will not adjust the Fixed Conversion Price.
15



(iii)The anti-dilution provisions described in Section 4(g)(i) may be waived by the affirmative vote of the Holders (acting together as a class) of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
(h)Notwithstanding Section 4(g)(i)(3) and Section 4(g)(i)(4), if the Company has a rights plan (including the distribution of rights pursuant thereto to all holders of Common Stock) in effect while any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, Holders will receive, upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in addition to shares of Common Stock to which each such Holder is entitled, a corresponding number of rights in accordance with such rights plan. If, prior to any conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, such rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable rights plan, the Fixed Conversion Price will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company had distributed to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, securities, property, rights, options or warrants as described in Section 4(g)(i)(4) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. Any distribution of rights, options or warrants pursuant to a rights plan that would allow a Holder to receive upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in addition to any shares of Common Stock to which such Holder is entitled, the rights described therein (unless such rights, options or warrants have separated from the Common Stock (in which case the Fixed Conversion Price will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company made a distribution to all holders of Common Stock as described in Section 4(g)(i)(4) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights)) shall not constitute a distribution of rights, options or warrants that would entitle such Holder to an adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price.
(i)Upon any adjustment in the Fixed Conversion Price, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days, deliver to each Holder a certificate signed by an Officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and specifying the adjusted Fixed Conversion Price then in effect following such adjustment.
(j)In the case of a Fundamental Change, as a result of which Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such transaction or event, a “Reorganization Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event, the right to convert each share of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a right to convert such share of Series A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock would be convertible immediately prior to such Reorganization Event would have been entitled to receive upon such Reorganization Event (such stock, securities or other property or assets, the “Reference Property”). The Company shall amend its Certificate of Incorporation to effect this change, if applicable. In the event that, in connection with any such Reorganization Event, the holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of all or any portion of the consideration to be received by such holders in such Reorganization Event, the Reference
16



Property into which shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such election (or of all holders of Common Stock if no holders of Common Stock make such election). The Company shall not become a party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 4(j). Notwithstanding Section 4(g)(i), no adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price shall be made for any Reorganization Event to the extent stock, securities or other property or assets become the Reference Property receivable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock.
The Company shall provide, by amendment hereto effective upon any such Reorganization Event, for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The provisions of this Section 4(j) shall apply to successive Reorganization Events.
None of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(j) shall affect the right of a Holder to convert its Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 4(a) prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event.
In this Certificate of Designation, if Common Stock has been replaced by Reference Property as a result of any such Reorganization Event, references to “Common Stock” are intended to refer to such Reference Property.

Section 5.Fundamental Change.
(a)If a Fundamental Change is proposed to occur, the Company shall give written notice of such Fundamental Change describing in reasonable detail the material terms and date of consummation thereof to each Holder not more than 45 days nor less than 20 days prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Change, and the Company shall give each Holder prompt written notice of any material change in the terms or timing of such transaction.
(b)Any Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock owned by such Holder (a “Redeeming Holder”) at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) the Liquidation Preference, plus an amount equal to all accumulated and unpaid dividends on such shares (including dividends accrued and unpaid on
17



previously unpaid dividends) or (ii) the amount that such Holder would have received in the Fundamental Change on an as-converted basis (a “Fundamental Change Redemption”).
(c)Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, a Redeeming Holder may elect a Fundamental Change Redemption by giving written notice to the Company of such election (a “Fundamental Change Notice”), a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C, prior to the later of (a) ten days prior to the consummation of the Fundamental Change or (b) ten days after receipt of notice from the Company (the “Fundamental Change Conversion Period”). The Company shall give prompt written notice of such Fundamental Change Notice to all other Holders (but in any event within five days prior to the consummation of the Fundamental Change), and each such Holder shall have until two days after the receipt of such notice to request a Fundamental Change Redemption (by giving a Fundamental Change Notice to the Company) of all or any portion of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Upon receipt of such election(s), the Company shall be obligated to redeem the aggregate number of shares specified therein upon the consummation of such Fundamental Change. If any proposed Fundamental Change does not occur, all requests for redemption in connection therewith shall be automatically rescinded, or if there has been a material change in the terms or the timing of the transaction, any Holder may rescind their Fundamental Change Notice by delivering written notice thereof to the Company prior to the consummation of the Fundamental Change.
(d)In the event the assets of the Company available for distribution upon any Fundamental Change, whether voluntary or involuntary, are insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled pursuant to this Section 5, no such distribution will be made on account of any shares of Parity Securities upon such Fundamental Change unless proportionate distributable amounts are paid on account of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which the Series A Preferred Stock and any Parity Securities are entitled upon such Fundamental Change, with the amount allocable to each series of such stock determined on a pro rata basis of the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of each series and accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, to which each series is entitled.
(e)The amount deemed paid or distributed to the holders of capital stock of the Company upon any Fundamental Change shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights or securities paid or distributed to such holders by the Company or the acquiring person, firm or other entity; provided, that the value of any such non-cash property, rights or securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(f)After the payment to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock of the full preferential amounts provided for in this Section 5, the Series A Preferred Stock have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company.
Section 6.Voting Rights and Power. Except as set forth in Section 7 below or as otherwise required by the DGCL:
18



(a)Until the Company has obtained the requisite Stockholder Approval, the Series A Preferred Stock will not have any right to vote together with the Common Stock and Special Voting Common Stock on any matters.

RECITALS A. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Investor is willing from time to time to purchase promissory notes constituting obligations of the Note Obligors (as defined in Appendix 1 attached hereto) in up to the principal amounts set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule I, Schedule II and, Schedule III and Schedule IV hereto. In consideration of the Investors’ commitment to purchase the Notes and forfeit certain warrants previously issued to such Investors as set forth in Schedule I hereto, each investor shall be issued a warrant for the number of shares of common stock set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule II hereto. B. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in Appendix 1 attached hereto. AGREEMENT NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties, and conditions set forth below, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 1. The Notes and Warrants. (a) Issuance of Notes. Subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof, the Note Obligors agree to issue and sell to each of the Investors, and each of the Investors severally agrees to purchase, one or more Notes up to the principal amount of such Investor’s Commitment; provided that, after giving effect to each such purchase and sale of Notes, the aggregate Original Principal Amounts of all Notes issued to an Investor would not exceed the Commitment of such Investor set forth on Schedule I hereto. From time to time, prior to the First Funding Event, the Company shall have the right to add Commitments from investors (“Additional Investors”) reasonably acceptable to the Investors who are parties to this Agreement on the date hereof. Such Additional Investors


 
shall be added by way of a joinder to this Agreement which shall also amend and restate Schedule I to include the Commitments of the Additional Investors and the number of Warrant Shares for each Additional Investor (determined as set forth in Section 1(b)), and such Additional Investors shall also (i) execute and deliver to Collateral Agent a “Joinder Agreement” (as defined in the Collateral Agency Agreement) and (ii) deliver to Collateral Agent and Notes Agent a completed administrative questionnaire, tax forms, any “know your customer” documentation and other forms with respect to any new Investors as may be required or requested by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agency Agreement. After compliance with the foregoing and the entry of such Additional Investors on the Notes Register, such Additional Investors shall be Investors hereunder. The obligations of the Investors to purchase Notes are several and not joint. The aggregate principal amount for all Notes issued hereunder shall not exceed $236,000,000240,000,000 plus any Increased Amount in respect of the Bridge Notes. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness in the form of Bridgethe Notes shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing such Indebtedness. (b) Issuance of Warrants. (i) On the date of the First Funding Event, Parent will execute and deliver to the Warrant Agent the Warrant Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrant Agreement”) and issue to each Investor a warrant certificate, in the form of Exhibit A to the Warrant Agreement (each, a “Warrant” and, collectively, the “Warrants”), to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock of Parent set forth opposite each Investor’s name on Schedule I hereto. If Additional Investors are added to Schedule I, the number of shares opposite each such Additional Investor’s name shall be equal to the quotient of (x) such Additional Investor’s Commitment multiplied by 15%, divided by (y) $10.00. Each Warrant shall be registered in the applicable Investor’s name by the Warrant Agent in the Warrant Register. (ii) On the date of the Bridge Funding Event, Parent will execute and deliver to the Warrant Agent the Warrant Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (the “New Warrant Agreement”) and issue to each Investor a warrant certificate, in the form of Exhibit A to the New Warrant Agreement (each, a “New Warrant” and, collectively, the “New Warrants”), to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock of Parent set forth opposite each Investor’s name on Schedule II hereto. (c) Cancellation of Warrants. On the date of the Bridge Funding Event, each investor will forfeit and surrender to the Parent for cancellation all of the Warrants issued to such Investor prior to the Bridge Funding Event. 2

(ii) Second Funding Event. If the First Funding Event occurs on or before December 31, 2021 and the principal amount of Notes issued in connection with such First Funding Event was equal to less than 100% of the Commitments, then subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the Note Obligors request, as set forth in Section 1(f), on or after January 3, 2022, the Investors shall purchase Notes issued by the Note Obligors in a principal amount equal to not more than the remaining Commitments at a Funding Event (the “Second Funding Event”).

Each Investor shall make the amount of such Investor’s purchase to be made by it hereunder with respect to the First Additional Bridge Funding Event available to the Notes Agent in immediately available funds (at the Note Agent’s account identified in writing by Notes Agent) not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of the First Additional Bridge Funding Event. Following receipt of all requested funds with respect to the First Additional Bridge Funding Event, the Notes Agent will make all such funds so received available to the Note Obligors in 3


 
like funds, by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with the instructions provided in the applicable Funding Notice (including all necessary wiring instructions). (v) [Reserved] (v) Second Additional Funding Event.

Each Investor shall make the amount of such Investor’s purchase to be made by it hereunder with respect to the Second Additional Funding Event available to the Notes Agent in immediately available funds (at the Note Agent’s account identified in writing by Notes Agent) not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of the Second Additional Funding Event. Following receipt of all requested funds with respect to the Second Additional Funding Event, the Notes Agent will make all such funds so received available to the Note Obligors in like funds, by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with the instructions provided in the applicable Funding Notice (including all necessary wiring instructions). (vi) Purchase Price. At each Funding Event, the Note Obligors will deliver to each Investor participating in each such Funding Event the Note to be purchased by such Investor, against receipt by the Note Obligors of the corresponding purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) payable by such Investor for such Note. Each of the Notes shall be registered by the Notes Agent in the applicable Investor’s name in the Notes Register. All of the transactions set forth herein to be taken at each such Funding Event, including the delivery of documents, shall be deemed to take place simultaneously at each such Funding Event.

(e) Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a 4


 
presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. (f) Procedures for Funding Events. Subject to the prior satisfaction or waiver of all other applicable conditions to the sale and purchase of a Note set forth in this Agreement (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the relevant Funding Event), to request a Funding Event, the Note Obligors (via a Responsible Officer) shall notify the Investors (which notice shall be irrevocable) by electronic mail at least five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Funding Event (which notice may be conditional on the closing of the Merger Transaction in the case of the First Funding Event), provided that, except for the Bridge Funding Event and, the First Additional Bridge Funding Event and the Second Additional Funding Event, no Funding Event shall occur after December 31, 2022. Such notice (a “Funding Notice”) shall (i) specify the amount to be funded by each Investor (which shall be such Investor’s pro rata portion of the aggregate amount to be funded, but not in excess of such Investor’s individual Commitment), (ii) include evidence of the satisfaction of each condition in Section 5, (iii) attach any documents, including a counterpart signature page of the Note, to be executed by such Investor (which shall be returned to the Note Obligors prior to the Funding Event), (iv) be executed by a Responsible Officer and (v) be sent to Notes Agent at the same time it is sent to the Investors. The Investors participating in such Funding Event shall deliver proceeds of any Note to the account designated by the Note Obligors for such purpose.

As of the Closing Date, the copy of the Organization Documents of each Issuer Party provided to the Investors pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is a true and correct copy of each such document, each of which is valid and in full force and effect. 5


 
(b) Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each Issuer Party of each Transaction Document to which such Person is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, and do not and will not (a) contravene the terms of any of such Person’s Organization Documents; (b) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under, (i) any Contractual Obligation to which such Person is a party or by which such Person or the properties of such Person or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or (ii) any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject; or (c) violate any Law, except in each case referred to in clause (b) or (c), to the extent that such conflict, breach, contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (c) Governmental Authorization; Other Consents. No approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is necessary or required in connection with (a) the execution, delivery or performance by, or enforcement against, any Issuer Party of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (b) the grant by any Issuer Party of the Liens granted by it pursuant to the Collateral Documents, (c) the perfection or maintenance of the Liens created under the Collateral Documents (including the first priority nature thereof) or (d) the exercise by the Investors or the Collateral Agent of their rights under the Transaction Documents or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the Collateral Documents, other than (i) authorizations, approvals, actions, notices and filings which have been duly obtained and (ii) filings to perfect the Liens created by the Collateral Documents. (d) Binding Effect. This Agreement has been, and each other Transaction Document, when delivered hereunder, will have been, duly executed and delivered by each Issuer Party that is party thereto.

long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives (in each case excluding leases entered into in the ordinary course of business for apartment units, hotel units or other accommodations and guarantees in respect thereof), that (x) are not reflected in the Audited Financial Statements or (y) have been incurred after the date of such financial statements and have not been disclosed to the Investors. (ii) Quarterly Financial Statements.

(iii) Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2020 (and, in addition, after delivery of the most recent annual audited financial statements in accordance with the terms hereof, since the date of such annual audited financial statements), there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (f) Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of the Issuer Parties, threatened in writing at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, by or against any Issuer Party or any Subsidiary or against any of their properties or revenues that (a) purport to affect or pertain to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (b) either individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (g) No Default. Neither any Issuer Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is in default under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation that could, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Issuer Party and each of its Subsidiaries has good record and marketable title in fee simple to, or valid leasehold interests in, all real property necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of its business, except for such defects in title as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (i) Environmental Compliance. 7


 
(i) The Issuer Parties and their respective Subsidiaries conduct in the ordinary course of business a review of the effect of existing Environmental Laws and claims alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of any Environmental Law on their respective businesses, operations and properties, and as a result thereof the Issuer Parties have reasonably concluded that such Environmental Laws and claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (ii) Neither any Issuer Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is undertaking, and has not completed, either individually or together with other potentially responsible parties, any investigation or assessment or remedial or response action relating to any actual or threatened release, discharge or disposal of Hazardous Materials at any site, location or operation, either voluntarily or pursuant to the order of any Governmental Authority or the requirements of any Environmental Law, except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and all Hazardous Materials generated, used, treated, handled or stored at, or transported to or from, any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any Issuer Party or any of its Subsidiaries have been disposed of in a manner not reasonably expected to result in material liability to any Issuer Party or any of its Subsidiaries. (j) Offering. (i) Subject in part to the truth and accuracy of each Investor’s representations set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, the offer, sale and issuance of the Notes as contemplated by this Agreement are exempt from the registration requirements of any applicable state and federal securities laws, and none of the Note Obligors nor any authorized agent acting on their behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption. (ii) Prior to the date hereof, the Note Obligors have exercised reasonable care, in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and guidance, to determine whether any Covered Person (as defined below) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii) under the Securities Act (“Disqualification Events”). To the Note Obligors’ knowledge, no Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event, except for a Disqualification Event covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3) under the Act. The Note Obligors have complied, to the extent applicable, with any disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) under the Securities Act. “Covered Persons” are those persons specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Act, including the Note Obligors; any predecessor or affiliate of any of the Note Obligors; any director, executive officer, other officer participating in the offering, general partner or managing member of any of the Note Obligors; any beneficial owner of 20% or more of any of the Note Obligors’ outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power; any promoter (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) connected with any of the Note Obligors in any capacity at the time of the sale of the Notes; and any person that has been or will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in connection with the sale of the Notes (a “Solicitor”), any general partner or managing member of any Solicitor, and any director, executive officer 8


 
or other officer participating in the offering of any Solicitor or general partner or managing member of any Solicitor. (k) Maintenance of Insurance. The properties of each Note Obligor and its Subsidiaries are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies not Affiliates of such Note Obligor, in such amounts, with such deductibles and covering such risks as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where the applicable Issuer Party or the applicable Subsidiary operates. (l) Taxes. Each Issuer Party and its Subsidiaries have filed all federal, state and other material tax returns and reports required to be filed, and have paid all federal, state and other material taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable, except those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP. There is no proposed tax assessment against any Issuer Party or any Subsidiary that would, if made, have a Material Adverse Effect, nor is there any tax sharing agreement applicable to any Note Obligor or any Subsidiary. The filing and recording of any and all documents required to perfect the security interests granted to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) will not result in any documentary, stamp or other taxes. (m) ERISA Compliance. (i) Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state laws. Each Pension Plan that is intended to be a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter or is subject to a favorable opinion letter from the IRS to the effect that the form of such Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and the trust related thereto has been determined by the IRS to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS. To the best knowledge of the Issuer Parties, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such tax-qualified status. (ii) There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Issuer Parties, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. (iii) (A) No ERISA Event has occurred, and no Issuer Party nor any ERISA Affiliate is aware of any fact, event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event with respect to any Pension Plan; (B) each Note Obligor and each ERISA Affiliate has met all applicable requirements under the Pension Funding Rules in respect of each Pension Plan, and no waiver of the 9


 
minimum funding standards under the Pension Funding Rules has been applied for or obtained; (C) as of the most recent valuation date for any Pension Plan, the funding target attainment percentage (as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is sixty percent (60%) or higher and no Issuer Party nor any ERISA Affiliate knows of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to cause the funding target attainment percentage for any such plan to drop below sixty percent (60%) as of the most recent valuation date; (D) no Issuer Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability to the PBGC other than for the payment of premiums, and there are no premium payments which have become due that are unpaid; (E) no Note Obligor nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or Section 4212(c) of ERISA; and (F) no Pension Plan has been terminated by the plan administrator thereof nor by the PBGC, and no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to cause the PBGC to institute proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate any Pension Plan. (iv) No Note Obligor nor any ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to, or has any unsatisfied obligation to contribute to, or liability under, any active or terminated Pension Plan. (n) Margin Regulations; Investment Company Act. (i) Margin Regulations. No Note Obligor is engaged nor will engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the FRB), or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock. Following the application of the proceeds of each Funding Event, not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of the assets (either of the Parent only or of the Parent and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis) will constitute margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the FRB). (ii) Investment Company Act. None of the Note Obligors is required to be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. (o) Disclosure. Each Note Obligor has disclosed to the Investors, either directly or through public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which it or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Issuer Party is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No report, financial statement, certificate or other information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on behalf of any Issuer Party to the Investors in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder or under any other Transaction Document (in each case as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), when furnished, contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, each 10


 
Issuer Party represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time; provided further that it is understood that (1) projections relate to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, (2) that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the projections may differ from the projected results included in such projections, and that such differences may be material, (3) the projections are subject to significant uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Group Members and (4) no assurance can be given that the projections will be realized. (p) Solvency. The Parent is, together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, Solvent. (q) Casualty, Etc. Neither the businesses nor the properties of any Issuer Party or any of its Subsidiaries are affected by any fire, explosion, accident, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, drought, storm, hail, earthquake, embargo, act of God or of the public enemy or other casualty (whether or not covered by insurance) that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (r) Sanctions Concerns; Anti-Bribery Laws. (i) Sanctions Concerns. The Group Members have implemented and maintain in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance by the Group Members and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions. The Group Members are not knowingly engaged in any activity that would reasonably be expected to result in any Group Member being listed on any Sanctions related list referred to in clause (a) of “Sanctioned Person”. No Group Member, or to the knowledge of any Note Obligor, any of their respective directors, officers, employees that will act for any Group Member in any capacity in connection with the credit facility established hereby, is listed on any Sanctions related list referred to in clause (a) of the definition of “Sanctioned Person”. (ii) Anti-Bribery Laws. No Group Member, nor to the knowledge of any Group Member, or other Person acting on behalf of any such Group Member has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a violation by such person of any applicable anti-bribery law, including but not limited to, the United Kingdom Bribery Act 2010 (the “UK Bribery Act”) and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the “FCPA”). Furthermore, each Note Obligor and, to the knowledge of such Note Obligor, its Affiliates have conducted their businesses in compliance in all material respects with the UK Bribery Act, the FCPA and similar laws, rules or regulations and have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure, and which are reasonably expected to continue to ensure, continued compliance therewith. 11

All action on the part of such Investor, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents has been taken or will be taken prior to the applicable Closing, and the Transaction Documents constitute valid and legally binding obligations of such Investor, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

(b) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with such Investor in reliance upon, among other things, such Investor’s representation to the Note Obligors, which by such Investor’s execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby confirms, that the Notes will be acquired for investment for such Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing, the Notes. By executing this Agreement, such Investor further represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Notes. (c) Reliance Upon the Investor’s Representations.

Such Investor further represents that through its representatives it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Note Obligors regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Notes and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Note Obligors.

Such Investor covenants to provide prompt written notice to the Note Obligors in the event it ceases to be an accredited investor at any time in the future during which it continues to hold any of the Notes or any other securities of the Note Obligors. (h) No Public Market.

Such Investor understands that the Notes may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Notes or an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the Notes must be held indefinitely. Investor acknowledges that the Note Obligors have no obligation to make or keep “current public information” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act). (j) Legends. To the extent applicable, each certificate or other document evidencing any of the Notes shall be endorsed with the legend set forth below, 13


 
and such Investor covenants that, except to the extent such restrictions are waived by the Note Obligors, such Investor shall not transfer the Notes without complying with the restrictions on transfer described in the legends endorsed on any such Note (except that the Note Obligors shall not require an opinion of counsel in connection with a transfer to an affiliated entity or pursuant to Rule 144): “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED OR QUALIFIED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (I) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SECURITIES THAT IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, OR (II) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, INCLUDING PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A OR TO PERSONS OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES PURSUANT TO REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, PROVIDED THAT, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF ANY TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A OR TO PERSONS OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES PURSUANT TO REGULATION S UNDER THE ACT, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SHALL BE FURNISHED TO THE NOTE OBLIGORS (IF REQUESTED BY THE NOTE OBLIGORS), IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE NOTE OBLIGORS, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND/OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW.” (k) Tax Advisors.

with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any other Issuer Party or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Transaction Documents; and (vi) this Guaranty and the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made)), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Transaction Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Transaction Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Transaction Document or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Transaction Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Note Obligors or any of their Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the 46


 
Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not consented to by any Beneficiary; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which the Note Obligors or any other Person may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor in respect of its Guaranty shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations under this Agreement subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provisions of any similar federal or state law; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to any Note Obligor with respect to its Direct Issuer Obligations. (d) Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (1) proceed against the Note Obligors, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Note Obligors, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (3) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of any Issuer Party or any other Person, or (4) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Note Obligors or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Note Obligors or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, (iii) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto, and (iv) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to the Note Obligors and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 9(c) and any right to consent to any 47


 
thereof; and (f) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof, in each case other than the indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. (e) Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made), each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against the Note Obligors or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including, (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against the Note Obligors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against the Note Obligors, and (iii) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made), each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against the Note Obligors or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against the Note Obligors, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Beneficiaries to be credited and applied ratably against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof. (f) Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of the Note Obligors or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to the Beneficiaries to be ratably credited and applied against 48


 
the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof. (g) Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made) shall have been paid in full (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Beneficiaries and their successors, transferees and assigns. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations. (h) Authority of Guarantors or the Note Obligors. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or the Note Obligors or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them. (i) Financial Condition of the Note Obligors. Any Note may be sold by the Note Obligors, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party at the time of any such grant or continuation, as the case may be. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from the Note Obligors and the other Issuer Parties on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the Note Obligors and the other Issuer Parties and their respective ability to perform their obligations under the Transaction Documents, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the Note Obligors and each other Issuer Party and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary. (j) Bankruptcy, Etc. (i) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Required Investors, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party or by any defense which the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. 49


 
(ii) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and the Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve the Note Obligors or any other Issuer Party of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person to pay the Investors in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced. In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by the Note Obligors, or any Subsidiary of the Note Obligors, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder 10. Miscellaneous. (a) Waivers and Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement and the Notes may be amended, waived or modified only upon the written consent of the Note Obligors and the Required Investors; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall without each affected Investor’s written consent: (i) reduce the principal amount of or change the Maturity Date of any Note, (ii) reduce the rate of or change the stated time for payment of principal or interest of any Note, (iii) extend or increase any Commitment of any Investor without the written consent of such investor, (iv) reserved, (v) make any Note payable in a currency other than that stated in such Note, (vi) change the ranking of any Note in any manner adverse to the rights of the affected Investor, (vii) modify in a manner adverse to the rights of any Investor the provisions related to the redemption of any Note, (viii) impair the right of any Investor to receive payment on, or with respect to, any Note or impair the right to initiate suit for the enforcement of any delivery or payment on, or with respect to, any Note, (ix) modify any Transaction Document in a manner that disproportionately adversely affects any Investor; provided, that treating all Investors in the same manner shall be deemed not to disproportionately adversely affect any Investor, (x) waive any condition set forth in Sections 4 or 5 or (xi) waive compliance with or modify this Section 10(a) in a manner adverse to any Investor; provided further, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall without the written consent of Collateral Agent and Notes Agent, change the duties, rights, benefits or responsibilities of such Person or otherwise impact such Person. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon all of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Note Obligors 50


 
and the Collateral Agent may amend or supplement any Transaction Document without the consent of any Investor to (1) cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency which is not material, (2) to make, complete or confirm any grant of Collateral permitted or required by any of the Collateral Documents, (3) to revise any schedule to reflect any change in notice information, (4) to revise the name of the Collateral Agent on any UCC financing statement or other Collateral Document as may be necessary to reflect the replacement of the Collateral Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall receive and may conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate of the Note Obligors stating that the execution of such amendment, modification or supplement is authorized and permitted by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and that all conditions precedent to the execution thereof have been complied with. (b) Governing Law. This Agreement and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of New York or of any other state. (c) Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement. (d) Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Section 10(g) and the Notes, the rights and obligations of the Note Obligors and the Investors shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties. In connection with any assignment or transfer of the Notes by an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Notes, (i) the Notes Agent shall update Schedule I to reflect such assignment or transfer and provide a copy of such updated Schedule I to the Collateral Agent, (ii) the assigning Investor shall, on the date of any such transfer or assignment, provide written notice to the Notes Agent and Collateral Agent of such assignment or transfer (including the amount of such assignment or transfer and the name of the assignee or transferee) together with a completed administrative questionnaire, tax forms, any “know your customer” documentation and other forms with respect to any new Investors as may be required or requested by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agency Agreement, (iii) any new Investor shall execute a “Joinder Agreement” (as defined in the Collateral Agency Agreement) and (iv) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 shall be paid by assignor to Notes Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Investor may directly or indirectly offer, sell, assign or transfer its commitment to purchase Notes without the prior written consent of the Note Obligors (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing an Investor may transfer its commitment in whole or in part without the consent of the Note Obligors to any Affiliate which (i) is not a natural person and is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act), and (ii) has the financial ability to perform the obligation to purchase Notes, provided notice of such assignment is delivered to the Notes Agent. In connection with any assignment or direct transfer of a commitment hereunder (in whole or in part), the transferor and transferee shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form of Exhibit E hereto. Any purported assignment of a Note made without complying with the provisions of this Section 10(d) shall be void and of no effect. For the 51


 
avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall restrict in any way any transfer or assignment by an Investor of the Warrants (or any portion thereof) or the shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Warrants. (e) Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. (i) Each Issuer Party irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes or the other Transaction Documents. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Issuer Party irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. (ii) Each Issuer Party agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that a final judgment in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 10(e)(i) brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon it subject to rights of appeal, as the case may be, and may be enforced in the courts of the United States of America or the State of New York (or any other courts to the jurisdiction of which it or any of its assets is or may be subject) by a suit upon such judgment. (iii) Each Issuer Party consents to process being served by or on behalf of any Investor in any suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof by registered, certified, priority or express mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt or delivery confirmation requested, to it at its address specified in Section 10(i) or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. Each Issuer Party agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service. (iv) Nothing in this Section 10(e) shall affect the right of any Investor, Collateral Agent or Notes Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the Investors, Collateral Agent or Notes Agent may have to bring proceedings against any Issuer Party in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction. (v) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY 52


 
HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER NOTETRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10(e). (f) Tax Treatment. The parties agree that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the Notes shall be treated as “debt” and shall not be treated as “contingent payment debt instruments” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury regulation section 1.1275-4, (ii) the Warrants and the Notes are part of an “investment unit” within the meaning of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code, and (iii) the fair market values of the Warrants will be determined in good faith by the Note Obligor Representative after the Closing Date in accordance with Section 1273(c)(2)(B) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h). No party will take a position that is inconsistent with the foregoing on any tax return unless otherwise required by applicable law or a final determination of the IRS or other applicable Governmental Authority. (g) Assignment by the Note Obligors. The rights, interests or obligations hereunder may not be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by the Note Obligors without the prior written consent of each of the Required Investors. (h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the other Transaction Documents constitute and contain the entire agreement among the Note Obligors and the Investors and supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations, correspondence, understandings and communications among the parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter hereof. (i) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall in writing and mailed or delivered to each party as follows: (i) if to an Investor, at such Investor’s address set forth in the Notes Register, or (ii) if to the Note Obligors, at the address set forth on the Note Obligors’ signature page hereto, or at such other address as the Note Obligors shall have furnished to the Investors and Collateral Agent in writing. All such notices and communications will be deemed effectively given the earlier of (i) when received, (ii) when delivered personally, (iii) one Business Day after being deposited with an overnight courier service of recognized standing or (iv) four days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage prepaid. (j) Expenses. The Note Obligors will pay the reasonable costs and expenses of the Investors, including legal fees and expenses (limited to legal fees and 53


 
expenses of a single counsel to the Investors and, if reasonably required by the Required Investors, a single local counsel of the Investors, (and solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction, but specifically excluding any separate counsel engaged by any individual Investor)) relating to (i) enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement or the Notes, or by reason of being an Investor, (ii) any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes and (iii) preparing, recording and filing all financing statements, instruments and other documents to create, perfect and fully preserve the liens granted pursuant to the Transaction Documents and the rights of the Investors or of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Note Obligors will pay the fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent as set forth in the Collateral Agency Agreement and the Fee Letter. (k) Confidentiality. Each Investor acknowledges and agrees that such Investor will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge or use for any purpose any business, technical, financial or other information or materials (whether written, oral or in any other form) provided to such Investor (whether by the Note Obligors or its advisors or other representatives) in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, together with all analyses, compilations, interpretations, notes, studies or other documents prepared by such Investor or its Permitted Disclosees (as defined below) which contain or otherwise reflect such information or materials or such Investor’s review of, or interest in, the Note Obligors or any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Confidential Information”), unless such Confidential Information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10(k) by such Investor), (b) is required to be disclosed by law or a governmental authority; provided, however, that an Investor may disclose Confidential Information to officers, directors, members, Affiliates or limited partners or their respective general partners, employees and legal, tax and accounting advisors of such Investor who have a need to know such information for the purpose of monitoring and evaluating such Investor’s investment in the Note Obligors (and/or advising such Investor in connection with such purpose) and who have expressly agreed to treat such Confidential Information confidentially in accordance with this Agreement (collectively, the “Permitted Disclosees”), (c) is disclosed to any Qualified Transferee (as defined in the Notes) to which any Investor sells or offers to sell a Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 10(k)) or (d) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, is disclosed to any Person to the extent that any Secured Party may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under any Transaction Document, provided that such Secured Party uses reasonable efforts to ensure that the recipient of such information maintains the confidentiality of such Confidential Information. For the avoidance of doubt, such Investor shall not be permitted to disclose, divulge or use any Confidential Information to any Person if such Person, in the reasonable good faith determination of each Note Obligor’s Board of Directors, carries on any business that is 54


 
substantially similar to such Note Obligor’s business. Even where any disclosure, divulgence or use of any Confidential Information is permitted pursuant hereto, each Investor agrees that it will not export or re-export any Confidential Information except in compliance with all United States and other export control laws and regulations. Each Investor further agrees to protect and maintain, and to cause each Permitted Disclosee to protect and maintain, the confidentiality and security of, and to exercise the highest standard of care as it exercises to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or unauthorized use of its own proprietary information, which shall be no less than reasonable care, with respect to, the Confidential Information. Each Investor shall be liable for any disclosure or unauthorized use by the Permitted Disclosees or other representatives of such Investor in contravention of this Section 10(k), and shall take reasonably appropriate steps to safeguard the Confidential Information from disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. Each Investor further agrees to notify the Note Obligors in writing of any actual or suspected misuse, misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of the Confidential Information, which may come to its attention. In the event that an Investor or any of its Permitted Disclosees receives a request or is required by a governmental authority to disclose all or any Confidential Information, such Investor or its Permitted Disclosees, as the case may be, agree to (A) immediately notify the Note Obligors of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such request, (B) consult with the Note Obligors on the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or narrow such request and (C) assist the Note Obligors in seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained or that the Note Obligors waives compliance with the provisions hereof, such Investor or its Permitted Disclosees, as the case may be, may disclose to any governmental authority only that portion of the Confidential Information which such Investor is advised by counsel is legally required to be disclosed, and such Investor shall exercise its best efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information. Nothing in this Section 10(k) shall in any way limit or otherwise modify any confidentiality covenants entered into by any Investor pursuant to any other agreement entered into with the Note Obligors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Note Obligors acknowledges and agrees that each Investor may disclose such information in respect of the Note Obligors and the Investor’s interest therein as is required under applicable securities laws, rules or regulations or rules of a national securities exchange. The Note Obligors consent in advance to such disclosure and any such disclosure shall not constitute a breach of this Section 10(k). (l) Separability of Agreements; Severability of this Agreement. The Note Obligors’ agreement with each of the Investors is a separate agreement and the sale of the Notes to each of the Investors is a separate sale. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights of each Investor hereunder are several rights, not rights jointly held with any of the other Investors. Any invalidity, illegality or limitation on the enforceability of the Agreement or any part thereof, by any Investor whether arising by reason of the law of the respective Investor’s domicile or otherwise, shall in no way affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement with respect to other Investors. If any provision of this Agreement shall be judicially determined to be 55


 
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. (m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement. Facsimile copies of signed signature pages will be deemed binding originals. (n) Collateral Agent. (i) Each Investor hereby appoints and authorizes Alter Domus (US) LLC as Collateral Agent hereunder and in respect of the Collateral Documents, with such powers as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Agency Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with such other powers are as reasonably incidental thereto. (ii) Each Investor hereby instructs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Agency Agreement and the other Collateral Documents on the Closing Date. (iii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the same rights, protections, immunities and indemnities as set forth in the Collateral Agency Agreement and the Security Agreement, as if the provisions setting forth those rights, protections, immunities and indemnities are fully set forth herein. (o) Release of Guarantors and Collateral. A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Transaction Documents upon the request of the Note Obligors, in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a wholly owned Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Investors shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.456789% (or .03456789) being rounded to 3.45679% (or .0345679)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or .0000).

All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall in writing and mailed or delivered personally, by overnight courier, by electronic mail or other or other electronic transmission to each party as follows: (i) if to the Holder, at the Holder’s address set forth in the Register, or (ii) if to the Note Obligors, at the address set forth on the Note Obligors’ signature page hereto, or at such other address as the Note Obligors shall have furnished to the Holder in writing.

For each such Interest Period beginning on a SOFR Rate Determination Date, “Three-Month SOFR Rate” means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions: (i) the Calculation Agent will determine the Three-Month SOFR Rate, which will be the Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor on the day (such day, the “Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day”) that is two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period, as such rate is published by the Term SOFR Administrator; provided, however, that if as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day the Term SOFR Reference Rate for the applicable tenor has not been published by the Term SOFR Administrator and a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to the Term SOFR Reference Rate has not occurred, then Three-Month SOFR Rate will be the Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor as published by the Term SOFR Administrator on the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which such Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor was published by the Term SOFR Administrator so long as such first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day is not more than three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to such Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day. (ii) If the Three-Month SOFR Rate cannot be determined as described above on the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day, the rate for the Interest Period following the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day will be the rate in effect on the immediately prior Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day. Notwithstanding clause (i) and clause (ii) above, if the Required Investors (in consultation with the Note Obligors) determine on or prior to the relevant Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date (each, as defined herein) have occurred with respect to Three-Month SOFR Rate (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), then the provisions set forth below under “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event,” which are referred to as the benchmark transition provisions, will thereafter apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on the Notes. In accordance with the benchmark transition provisions, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the amount of interest that will be payable for each Interest Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of (1) the greater of (x) the Benchmark Replacement (as defined herein) and (y) 1.00% and (2) 7.00%. In the event that SOFR or applicable Benchmark is not available on any determination date, then unless the Calculation Agent is notified in writing by the Note Obligors and the Required Investors of a Benchmark


 
13 Replacement in accordance with the terms of this Note within three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days the Calculation Agent shall use the interest rate in effect for the immediately prior Interest Period. All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.456789% (or .03456789) being rounded to 3.45679% (or .0345679)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or .0000). Absent willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error, the calculation of the applicable interest rate for each Interest Period by the Calculation Agent will be final and binding on the Note Obligors and the Holders. The Calculation Agent shall not have any liability for any delay, error or inaccuracy in the publication of any interest rate published by any publication that is the source for determining the interest rates of the Notes, or for any rates published on any publicly available source, including without limitation the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Website or the Term SOFR Administrator’s website, or in any of the foregoing cases for any subsequent correction or adjustment thereto. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Required Investors (in consultation with the Note Obligors) in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in the Required Investors’ sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, will become effective without consent from any other party, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3(g). (h) Effect of Benchmark Transition Event. (i) Benchmark Replacement. If the Required Investors determine that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates. (ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Required Investors will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes


 
14 from time to time. (iii) Decisions and Determinations. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Required Investors pursuant to the benchmark replacement provisions described in this Section 3(h), including any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection: (1) will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error; (2) if made by the Required Investors, will be made in its sole discretion; and (3) shall become effective without consent from any other party. SECTION 4. REDEMPTION. (a) Redemption at the Option of the Note Obligors. The Note Obligors shall have the right to redeem the Note, in whole or in part, for an amount in cash equal to the Note Redemption Amount in respect of all or a portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance, as the case may be, on or about the date specified (the “Redemption Date”) in a written notice to Holder (the “Redemption Notice”) that shall be delivered not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date, provided that any such redemption shall be made pro rata with respect to all Notes then outstanding and such Redemption Notice may be made contingent upon the consummation or completion of another transaction. (b) Offer to Redeem upon a Change of Control. If a Change of Control shall occur, the Note Obligors shall, not later than three (3) Business Days after the occurrence of such Change of Control, give written notice to the Holder and offer to redeem this Note for an amount in cash equal to the Note Redemption Amount in respect of the Outstanding Principal Balance; provided that the Note Redemption Amount payable upon a redemption resulting from a Change of Control shall be equal to at least 101% of the Outstanding Principal Balance redeemed. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance. (c) Offer to Redeem upon Certain Asset Sales. When the amount of aggregate Available Excess Proceeds from all Dispositions in any fiscal year exceeds $5,000,000, the Note Obligors shall give prompt written notice to the Holder (the “Asset Sale Notice”), which notice shall include a calculation of the Holder’s Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion and an offer to redeem a portion of this Note (the “Asset Redemption Offer”) equal to the Holder’s Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion by making a cash payment in the amount of the applicable Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion plus accrued and unpaid interest on such amount at the Applicable Rate. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Asset Sale Notice and the


 
15 Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance. The Note Obligors may use any remaining portion of such Available Excess Proceeds that is not applied to purchase Notes because an Asset Redemption Offer is not accepted for general corporate purposes, the repayment of Indebtedness or as otherwise required pursuant to its other contractual requirements. Upon completion of such Asset Redemption Offer, the amount of Available Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. (d) Offer to Redeem Using Excess Cash Flow. When the amount of Excess Cash Flow at any time exceeds the Excess Cash Flow Threshold, the Note Obligors shall give prompt written notice to the Holder (the “Excess Cash Flow Notice”), which notice shall include a calculation of the Holder’s Excess Cash Flow Pro Rata Portion and an offer to redeem a portion of this Note (the “Excess Cash Flow Redemption Offer”) equal to the Holder’s Excess Cash Flow Pro Rata Portion by making a cash payment in the amount of the applicable Excess Cash Flow Pro Rata Portion plus accrued and unpaid interest on such amount at the Applicable Rate. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Excess Cash Flow Notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance (such date of redemption to be a Redemption Date hereunder). The Note Obligors may use any remaining portion of such Excess Cash Flow that is not applied to purchase Notes because an Excess Cash Flow Offer is not accepted for general corporate purposes, the repayment of Indebtedness, as otherwise required pursuant to its other contractual requirements or for any other purpose permitted under the Note Purchase Agreement. Upon completion of such Excess Cash Flow Redemption Offer, the amount of Excess Cash Flow shall be reset at zero. (ed) Mechanics of Redemption and Repayment of this Note.

19 SECTION 10. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND RELATED PROVISIONS. (a) This Note may not be directly or indirectly offered, sold, assigned or transferred by the Holder without the prior written consent of the Note Obligors except to a Qualified Transferee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10 shall not restrict the ability of any direct or indirect parent of the Holder to pledge, mortgage, charge or otherwise dispose of or encumber its assets. In connection with any assignment or direct transfer of this Note (in whole or in part), the transferor and transferee shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form of Exhibit II hereto and provide a copy thereof to Notes Agent. Any offer, sale, assignment or other transfer of this Note is also subject to the restrictive legends of this Note. (b) The Notes Agent shall maintain and keep updated a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Holders of this Note and each Replacement Note and the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note (and accrued interest) and any Replacement Note (the “Registered Notes”). The initial address for the Holder of this Note shall be the address set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto and may be updated, from time to time, by written notice to the Note Obligors and Notes Agent. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Note Obligors, the Collateral Agent and the Holder of this Note or any Replacement Note shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of this Note or the applicable Replacement Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Notes Agent shall provide a copy of the Register to the Holder and backup calculations for the values relating to this Note in the Register. A Registered Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part, to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 10(a) and any other terms hereof, only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon the Notes Agent’s receipt of a permitted request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the Holder of the applicable Registered Note, an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, a Joinder Agreement (as defined in the Collateral Agency Agreement), any tax forms required by Section 16 and any KYC information required by the Note Purchase Agreement, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to Notes Agent, and the physical surrender of such applicable Registered Note to the Note Obligors, the Notes Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register and the Note Obligors shall issue one or more new Registered Notes, the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of which is the same as the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of the surrendered Registered Note, to the Transferee pursuant to Section 11. The provisions of this Section 10(b) are intended to cause the Note to be in “registered form” as defined in Treasury Regulations Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c), or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (and any successor sections) and shall be interpreted and applied consistently therewith. SECTION 11. REISSUANCE OF THE NOTE. (a) Transfer. If this Note is permitted to be transferred, in whole or in part, the


 
20 Holder shall surrender this Note to the Note Obligors, whereupon the Note Obligors will issue and deliver a Replacement Note to the Transferee (in accordance with Section 11(d)), representing the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note held by the Holder is being transferred, a new note (in accordance with Section 11(d)) to the Holder, representing the portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance not being transferred (each, a “Replacement Note” and collectively, the “Replacement Notes”). The Holder and the Transferee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 11(d), following redemption of any portion of this Note, the Outstanding Principal Balance represented by this Note may be less than the Outstanding Principal Balance stated on the face of this Note. (b) Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Note Obligors, for Replacement Notes representing in the aggregate the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note in accordance with Section 11(d). Each such Replacement Note will represent such portion of such Outstanding Principal Balance as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender. The Original Principal Amount shall be allocated pro rata between such Replacement Notes based on the Outstanding Principal Balance designated for each. (c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Note Obligors of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Note Obligors of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Note Obligors in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Note Obligors shall execute and deliver to the Holder a Replacement Note (in accordance with Section 11(d)), representing the Outstanding Principal Balance. (d) Issuance of Replacement Notes. Whenever the Note Obligors are required to issue a Replacement Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such Replacement Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such Replacement Note, the remaining Outstanding Principal Balance (or, in the case of a Replacement Note being issued pursuant to Section 11(a) or Section 11(c), the Outstanding Principal Balance designated by the Holder which, when added to the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance represented by the other Replacement Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the remaining Outstanding Principal Balance under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of Replacement Notes), (iii) shall be deemed to have an Original Principal Amount calculated in accordance with Section 11(b), (iv) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such Replacement Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (v) shall be deemed to have accrued its proportional share of the interest under this Note from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Due Date, (vi)shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (vii) shall be timely prepared and issued by the Note Obligors. The Note Obligors shall provide Notes Agent with notice of any issuance of Replacement


 
21 Notes and the details in respect thereof to permit the Notes Agent to revise the Register. SECTION 12. DISPUTES REGARDING ARITHMETIC CALCULATIONS. If the Holder disagrees with any arithmetic calculations performed by the Note Obligors pursuant to this Note, the Holder shall submit to the Note Obligors its calculations thereof. If the Holder and the Note Obligors are unable to agree upon such calculation within five (5) Business Days of the submission by the Holder, then the Note Obligors shall, within five (5) Business Days thereafter submit the disputed arithmetic calculation to the Note Obligors’ independent, outside accountant, or if such accountant is unwilling or prohibited, an accountant reasonably satisfactory to the parties (which is ranked in the top twenty (20) accounting firms nationally, by revenue). The Note Obligors shall cause such accountant to perform the calculation and notify the Note Obligors and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed calculation. The Holder shall pay the costs and expenses of such accountant unless the calculation of such accountant is mathematically closer to the Holder’s calculation than the calculation submitted by the Note Obligors, in which case, the costs and expenses of such accountant shall be paid by the Note Obligors. Such calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent manifest error. SECTION 13. NOTICES AND PAYMENTS. (a) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall in writing and mailed or delivered personally, by overnight courier, by electronic mail or other or other electronic transmission to each party as follows: (i) if to the Holder, at the Holder’s address set forth in the Register, or (ii) if to the Note Obligors, at the address set forth on the Note Obligors’ signature page hereto, or at such other address as the Note Obligors shall have furnished to the Holder in writing. All such notices and communications will be deemed effectively given the earlier of (i) when received, (ii) when delivered personally, (iii) one Business Day after being deposited with an overnight courier service of recognized standing or (iv) four days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage prepaid. (b) Payments. Whenever any payment of cash is to be made by the Note Obligors to any Person pursuant to this Note, such payment shall be made in cash via wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Holder’s wire transfer instructions are attached hereto as Exhibit I. In the event of a change of Holder’s wire transfer instructions, Holder shall provide the Note Obligors and Collateral Agent with five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of such change and any amounts paid by the Note Obligors to the account listed on Exhibit I hereto prior to such notice shall be deemed paid to the Holder. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day; provided, however, that in the case of any Interest Payment Due Date on which the Note Obligors is paying PIK Interest and that is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such


 
22 date. SECTION 14. WAIVER OF NOTICE. To the extent permitted by Law, unless otherwise provided herein, the Note Obligors hereby waives demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by Law. (d) In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable Law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such Law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any Law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note. SECTION 16. TAX MATTERS. (a) All amounts payable or deliverable in respect of this Note, whether in respect of principal, interest (including accrued interest) or otherwise, will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is required by Law.

If this Note has not yet been redeemed or otherwise repaid, the Note Obligations Amount (and all other outstanding Obligations) as of the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. SECTION 3. PAYMENT OF INTEREST. (a) During the term of this Note, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Principal Balance at the Applicable Rate (or the Default Rate to the extent provided in Section 3(f)) per annum from, and including, the Issuance Date until, but excluding, the Maturity Date. The Note Obligors shall give the Holder notice of the form, rate and amount of each interest payment (including whether such interest payment shall be paid in cash, as PIK Interest by adding such accrued interest to the Outstanding Principal Balance or a combination thereof (including detail as to such combination)) no later than the tenth Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Due Date. (b) The accrual of interest on this Note as of any date will be calculated based on the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note as of the Close of Business on the immediately preceding Interest Payment Due Date (or, if there is no preceding

At the option of the Note Obligors, the PIK Interest election may be extended through the December 31, 2025 Interest Payment Due Date. At the option of the Note Obligors, the PIK Interest election may be further extended through the December 31, 2026 Interest Payment Due Date (the “2026 PIK Option” and each Interest Payment Due Date ending March 31, 2026, June 30, 2026, September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2026 in which the 2026 PIK Option is exercised, a “2026 PIK Interest Payment Due Date”).

In the event that the Note Obligors do not elect with respect to an applicable Interest Payment Due Date whether to pay interest as PIK Interest or in cash or a combination thereof on or before an Interest Payment Due Date, the Note Obligors shall be deemed to elect to pay such accrued interest due on such Interest Payment Due Date as PIK Interest (and shall notify the Notes Agent of such and request Notes Agent to update the Register accordingly). The Issuance Date and the date on which each Interest Payment Due Date occurs shall be a “SOFR Rate Determination Date”. If any Interest Payment Due Date or SOFR Rate Determination Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day (other than the Interest Payment Due Date that is also the Maturity Date), such Interest Payment Due Date or SOFR Rate Determination Date will be postponed to the immediately succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if that Business Day is in the immediately succeeding calendar month, the Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. (d) Any accrued interest paid as PIK Interest will be effective at the Open of Business on such Interest Payment Due Date. Interest shall accrue and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in such period. (e) On each Interest Payment Due Date, the Note Obligors shall notify Notes Agent of any accrued PIK Interest and request Notes Agent make a record on the Register of the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note due to any accrued PIK Interest, each Note shall represent the increased Outstanding Principal Balance, and no separate Note will be issued with respect to such accrued PIK Interest. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Note Obligors shall pay interest (“Default Interest”) at a rate equal to the interest rate otherwise applicable plus 5.002.00% (the “Default Rate”) on (i)


 
12 the Outstanding Principal Balance, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand. (g) SOFR Matters. The Three-Month SOFR Rate component of the Applicable Rate shall be calculated as of each SOFR Rate Determination Date and apply from such date until the succeeding SOFR Rate Determination Date. For each such Interest Period beginning on a SOFR Rate Determination Date, “Three-Month SOFR Rate” means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions: (i) the Calculation Agent will determine the Three-Month SOFR Rate, which will be the Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor on the day (such day, the “Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day”) that is two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period, as such rate is published by the Term SOFR Administrator; provided, however, that if as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day the Term SOFR Reference Rate for the applicable tenor has not been published by the Term SOFR Administrator and a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to the Term SOFR Reference Rate has not occurred, then Three-Month SOFR Rate will be the Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor as published by the Term SOFR Administrator on the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which such Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor was published by the Term SOFR Administrator so long as such first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day is not more than three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to such Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day. (ii) If the Three-Month SOFR Rate cannot be determined as described above on the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day, the rate for the Interest Period following the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day will be the rate in effect on the immediately prior Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day. Notwithstanding clause (i) and clause (ii) above, if the Required Investors (in consultation with the Note Obligors) determine on or prior to the relevant Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date (each, as defined herein) have occurred with respect to Three-Month SOFR Rate (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), then the provisions set forth below under “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event,” which are referred to as the benchmark transition provisions, will thereafter apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on the Notes. In accordance with the benchmark transition provisions, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the amount of interest that will be payable for each Interest Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of (1) the greater of (x) the Benchmark Replacement (as defined herein) and (y)


 
13 1.00% and (2) 7.00%. In the event that SOFR or applicable Benchmark is not available on any determination date, then unless the Calculation Agent is notified in writing by the Note Obligors and the Required Investors of a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with the terms of this Note within three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days the Calculation Agent shall use the interest rate in effect for the immediately prior Interest Period. All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.456789% (or .03456789) being rounded to 3.45679% (or .0345679)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or .0000). Absent willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error, the calculation of the applicable interest rate for each Interest Period by the Calculation Agent will be final and binding on the Note Obligors and the Holders. The Calculation Agent shall not have any liability for any delay, error or inaccuracy in the publication of any interest rate published by any publication that is the source for determining the interest rates of the Notes, or for any rates published on any publicly available source, including without limitation the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Website or the Term SOFR Administrator’s website, or in any of the foregoing cases for any subsequent correction or adjustment thereto. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Required Investors (in consultation with the Note Obligors) in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in the Required Investors’ sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, will become effective without consent from any other party, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3(g). (h) Effect of Benchmark Transition Event. (i) Benchmark Replacement. If the Required Investors determine that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates.


 
14 (ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Required Investors will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time. (iii) Decisions and Determinations. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Required Investors pursuant to the benchmark replacement provisions described in this Section 3(h), including any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection: (1) will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error; (2) if made by the Required Investors, will be made in its sole discretion; and (3) shall become effective without consent from any other party. SECTION 4. REDEMPTION. (a) Redemption at the Option of the Note Obligors. The Note Obligors shall have the right to redeem the Note, in whole or in part, for an amount in cash equal to the Note Redemption Amount in respect of all or a portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance, as the case may be, on or about the date specified (the “Redemption Date”) in a written notice to Holder (the “Redemption Notice”) that shall be delivered not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date, provided that any such redemption shall be made pro rata with respect to all Notes then outstanding and such Redemption Notice may be made contingent upon the consummation or completion of another transaction. (b) Offer to Redeem upon a Change of Control. If a Change of Control shall occur, the Note Obligors shall, not later than three (3) Business Days after the occurrence of such Change of Control, give written notice to the Holder and offer to redeem this Note for an amount in cash equal to the Note Redemption Amount in respect of the Outstanding Principal Balance; provided that the Note Redemption Amount payable upon a redemption resulting from a Change of Control shall be equal to at least 101% of the Outstanding Principal Balance redeemed. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance. (c) Offer to Redeem upon Certain Asset Sales. When the amount of aggregate Available Excess Proceeds from all Dispositions in any fiscal year exceeds $5,000,000, the Note Obligors shall give prompt written notice to the Holder (the “Asset Sale Notice”), which notice shall include a calculation of the Holder’s Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion and an offer to redeem a portion of this Note (the “Asset Redemption Offer”) equal to the Holder’s Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion by making a cash payment in the amount of the applicable Asset Sale Pro Rata


 
15 Portion plus accrued and unpaid interest on such amount at the Applicable Rate. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Asset Sale Notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance. The Note Obligors may use any remaining portion of such Available Excess Proceeds that is not applied to purchase Notes because an Asset Redemption Offer is not accepted for general corporate purposes, the repayment of Indebtedness or as otherwise required pursuant to its other contractual requirements. Upon completion of such Asset Redemption Offer, the amount of Available Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. (d) Offer to Redeem Using Excess Cash Flow. When the amount of Excess Cash Flow at any time exceeds the Excess Cash Flow Threshold, the Note Obligors shall give prompt written notice to the Holder (the “Excess Cash Flow Notice”), which notice shall include a calculation of the Holder’s Excess Cash Flow Pro Rata Portion and an offer to redeem a portion of this Note (the “Excess Cash Flow Redemption Offer”) equal to the Holder’s Excess Cash Flow Pro Rata Portion by making a cash payment in the amount of the applicable Excess Cash Flow Pro Rata Portion plus accrued and unpaid interest on such amount at the Applicable Rate. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Excess Cash Flow Notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance (such date of redemption to be a Redemption Date hereunder). The Note Obligors may use any remaining portion of such Excess Cash Flow that is not applied to purchase Notes because an Excess Cash Flow Offer is not accepted for general corporate purposes, the repayment of Indebtedness, as otherwise required pursuant to its other contractual requirements or for any other purpose permitted under the Note Purchase Agreement. Upon completion of such Excess Cash Flow Redemption Offer, the amount of Excess Cash Flow shall be reset at zero. (ed) Mechanics of Redemption and Repayment of this Note.

In connection with any assignment or direct transfer of this Note (in whole or in part), the transferor and transferee shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form of Exhibit II hereto and provide a copy thereof to Notes Agent. Any offer, sale, assignment or other transfer of this Note is also subject to the restrictive legends of this Note. (b) The Notes Agent shall maintain and keep updated a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Holders of this Note and each Replacement Note and the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note (and accrued interest) and any Replacement Note (the “Registered Notes”). The initial address for the Holder of this Note shall be the address set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto and may be updated, from time to time, by written notice to the Note Obligors and Notes Agent.

The provisions of this Section 10(b) are intended to cause the Note to be in “registered form” as defined in Treasury Regulations Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c), or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (and any successor sections) and shall be interpreted and applied


 
20 consistently therewith. SECTION 11. REISSUANCE OF THE NOTE. (a) Transfer. If this Note is permitted to be transferred, in whole or in part, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Note Obligors, whereupon the Note Obligors will issue and deliver a Replacement Note to the Transferee (in accordance with Section 11(d)), representing the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note held by the Holder is being transferred, a new note (in accordance with Section 11(d)) to the Holder, representing the portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance not being transferred (each, a “Replacement Note” and collectively, the “Replacement Notes”). The Holder and the Transferee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 11(d), following redemption of any portion of this Note, the Outstanding Principal Balance represented by this Note may be less than the Outstanding Principal Balance stated on the face of this Note. (b) Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Note Obligors, for Replacement Notes representing in the aggregate the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note in accordance with Section 11(d). Each such Replacement Note will represent such portion of such Outstanding Principal Balance as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender. The Original Principal Amount shall be allocated pro rata between such Replacement Notes based on the Outstanding Principal Balance designated for each. (c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Note Obligors of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Note Obligors of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Note Obligors in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Note Obligors shall execute and deliver to the Holder a Replacement Note (in accordance with Section 11(d)), representing the Outstanding Principal Balance. (d) Issuance of Replacement Notes. Whenever the Note Obligors are required to issue a Replacement Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such Replacement Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such Replacement Note, the remaining Outstanding Principal Balance (or, in the case of a Replacement Note being issued pursuant to Section 11(a) or Section 11(c), the Outstanding Principal Balance designated by the Holder which, when added to the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance represented by the other Replacement Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the remaining Outstanding Principal Balance under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of Replacement Notes), (iii) shall be deemed to have an Original Principal Amount calculated in accordance with Section 11(b), (iv) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such Replacement Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (v) shall be deemed to have accrued its


 
21 proportional share of the interest under this Note from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Due Date, (vi)shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (vii) shall be timely prepared and issued by the Note Obligors. The Note Obligors shall provide Notes Agent with notice of any issuance of Replacement Notes and the details in respect thereof to permit the Notes Agent to revise the Register. SECTION 12. DISPUTES REGARDING ARITHMETIC CALCULATIONS. If the Holder disagrees with any arithmetic calculations performed by the Note Obligors pursuant to this Note, the Holder shall submit to the Note Obligors its calculations thereof.

10 SECTION 2. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL. If this Note has not yet been redeemed or otherwise repaid, the Note Obligations Amount (and all other outstanding Obligations) as of the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. SECTION 3. PAYMENT OF INTEREST. (a) During the term of this Note, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Principal Balance at the Applicable Rate (or the Default Rate to the extent provided in Section 3(f)) per annum from, and including, the Issuance Date until, but excluding, the Maturity Date. The Note Obligors shall give the Holder notice of the form, rate and amount of each interest payment (including whether such interest payment shall be paid in cash, as PIK Interest by adding such accrued interest to the Outstanding Principal Balance or a combination thereof (including detail as to such combination)) no later than the tenth Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Due Date. (b) The accrual of interest on this Note as of any date will be calculated based on the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note as of the Close of Business on the immediately preceding Interest Payment Due Date (or, if there is no preceding Interest Payment Due Date following the Issuance Date, on the Issuance Date). (c) Accrued interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on September 30, 2024 (each, an “Interest Payment Due Date”). On each Interest Payment Due Date prior to and including March 31, 2025, such accrued interest shall be payable at the Note Obligors’ election, in cash, as PIK Interest by adding such accrued interest to the Outstanding Principal Balance or a combination thereof, as set forth in the definition of Applicable Rate. At the option of the Note Obligors, the PIK Interest election may be extended through the December 31, 2025 Interest Payment Due Date. At the option of the Note Obligors, the PIK Interest election may be further extended through the December 31, 2026 Interest Payment Due Date (the “2026 PIK Option” and each Interest Payment Due Date ending March 31, 2026, June 30, 2026, September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2026 in which the 2026 PIK Option is exercised, a “2026 PIK Interest Payment Due Date”).

In the event that the Note Obligors do not elect with respect to an applicable Interest Payment Due Date whether to pay interest as PIK Interest or in cash or a combination thereof on or before an Interest Payment Due Date, the Note Obligors shall be deemed to elect to pay such accrued interest due on such Interest Payment Due Date as PIK Interest (and shall notify the Notes Agent of such and request Notes Agent to update the Register accordingly). The Issuance Date and the date on which each Interest Payment Due Date occurs shall be a “SOFR Rate Determination Date”. If any Interest Payment Due Date or SOFR Rate Determination Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day (other than the Interest Payment Due Date that is also the Maturity Date), such Interest Payment Due Date or SOFR Rate Determination Date will be postponed to the


 
11 immediately succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if that Business Day is in the immediately succeeding calendar month, the Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. (d) Any accrued interest paid as PIK Interest will be effective at the Open of Business on such Interest Payment Due Date. Interest shall accrue and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in such period. (e) On each Interest Payment Due Date, the Note Obligors shall notify Notes Agent of any accrued PIK Interest and request Notes Agent make a record on the Register of the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note due to any accrued PIK Interest, each Note shall represent the increased Outstanding Principal Balance, and no separate Note will be issued with respect to such accrued PIK Interest. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Note Obligors shall pay interest (“Default Interest”) at a rate equal to the interest rate otherwise applicable plus 2.00% (the “Default Rate”) on (i) the Outstanding Principal Balance, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand. (g) SOFR Matters. The Three-Month SOFR Rate component of the Applicable Rate shall be calculated as of each SOFR Rate Determination Date and apply from such date until the succeeding SOFR Rate Determination Date. For each such Interest Period beginning on a SOFR Rate Determination Date, “Three-Month SOFR Rate” means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions: (i) the Calculation Agent will determine the Three-Month SOFR Rate, which will be the Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor on the day (such day, the “Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day”) that is two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period, as such rate is published by the Term SOFR Administrator; provided, however, that if as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day the Term SOFR Reference Rate for the applicable tenor has not been published by the Term SOFR Administrator and a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to the Term SOFR Reference Rate has not occurred, then Three-Month SOFR Rate will be the Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor as published by the Term SOFR Administrator on the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which such Term SOFR Reference Rate for a three month tenor was published by the Term SOFR Administrator so long as such first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day is not more than three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to such Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day.


 
12 (ii) If the Three-Month SOFR Rate cannot be determined as described above on the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day, the rate for the Interest Period following the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day will be the rate in effect on the immediately prior Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day. Notwithstanding clause (i) and clause (ii) above, if the Required Investors (in consultation with the Note Obligors) determine on or prior to the relevant Periodic Term SOFR Determination Day that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date (each, as defined herein) have occurred with respect to Three-Month SOFR Rate (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), then the provisions set forth below under “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event,” which are referred to as the benchmark transition provisions, will thereafter apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on the Notes. In accordance with the benchmark transition provisions, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the amount of interest that will be payable for each Interest Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of (1) the greater of (x) the Benchmark Replacement (as defined herein) and (y) 1.00% and (2) 7.00%. In the event that SOFR or applicable Benchmark is not available on any determination date, then unless the Calculation Agent is notified in writing by the Note Obligors and the Required Investors of a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with the terms of this Note within three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days the Calculation Agent shall use the interest rate in effect for the immediately prior Interest Period. All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.456789% (or .03456789) being rounded to 3.45679% (or .0345679)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or .0000). Absent willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error, the calculation of the applicable interest rate for each Interest Period by the Calculation Agent will be final and binding on the Note Obligors and the Holders. The Calculation Agent shall not have any liability for any delay, error or inaccuracy in the publication of any interest rate published by any publication that is the source for determining the interest rates of the Notes, or for any rates published on any publicly available source, including without limitation the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Website or the Term SOFR Administrator’s website, or in any of the foregoing cases for any subsequent correction or adjustment thereto. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Required Investors (in consultation with the Note Obligors) in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance


 
13 or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in the Required Investors’ sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, will become effective without consent from any other party, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3(g). (h) Effect of Benchmark Transition Event. (i) Benchmark Replacement. If the Required Investors determine that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates. (ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Required Investors will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time. (iii) Decisions and Determinations. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Required Investors pursuant to the benchmark replacement provisions described in this Section 3(h), including any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection: (1) will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error; (2) if made by the Required Investors, will be made in its sole discretion; and (3) shall become effective without consent from any other party. SECTION 4. REDEMPTION. (a) Redemption at the Option of the Note Obligors. The Note Obligors shall have the right to redeem the Note, in whole or in part, for an amount in cash equal to the Note Redemption Amount in respect of all or a portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance, as the case may be, on or about the date specified (the “Redemption Date”) in a written notice to Holder (the “Redemption Notice”) that shall be delivered not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date, provided that any such redemption shall be made pro rata with respect to all Notes then outstanding and such Redemption Notice may be made contingent upon the consummation or completion of another transaction. (b) Offer to Redeem upon a Change of Control. If a Change of Control shall occur, the Note Obligors shall, not later than three (3) Business Days after the occurrence of such Change of Control, give written notice to the Holder and offer to


 
14 redeem this Note for an amount in cash equal to the Note Redemption Amount in respect of the Outstanding Principal Balance; provided that the Note Redemption Amount payable upon a redemption resulting from a Change of Control shall be equal to at least 101% of the Outstanding Principal Balance redeemed. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance. (c) Offer to Redeem upon Certain Asset Sales. When the amount of aggregate Available Excess Proceeds from all Dispositions in any fiscal year exceeds $5,000,000, the Note Obligors shall give prompt written notice to the Holder (the “Asset Sale Notice”), which notice shall include a calculation of the Holder’s Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion and an offer to redeem a portion of this Note (the “Asset Redemption Offer”) equal to the Holder’s Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion by making a cash payment in the amount of the applicable Asset Sale Pro Rata Portion plus accrued and unpaid interest on such amount at the Applicable Rate. Holder may accept such redemption offer by written notice to the Note Obligors not later than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Asset Sale Notice and the Note Obligors shall make payment on the redemption within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice of acceptance. The Note Obligors may use any remaining portion of such Available Excess Proceeds that is not applied to purchase Notes because an Asset Redemption Offer is not accepted for general corporate purposes, the repayment of Indebtedness or as otherwise required pursuant to its other contractual requirements. Upon completion of such Asset Redemption Offer, the amount of Available Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. (d) Mechanics of Redemption and Repayment of this Note. The following procedures shall apply to redemptions and other repayments of the amounts due and payable under this Note (other than in connection with any acceleration thereof): (i) In connection with any redemption or repayment of this Note in full, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Note Obligors (or in the case of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, provide an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note that is reasonably satisfactory to the Note Obligors) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or Maturity Date; provided that failure to timely surrender this Note shall not release the Note Obligors of its obligations hereunder.

18 (a) This Note may not be directly or indirectly offered, sold, assigned or transferred by the Holder without the prior written consent of the Note Obligors except to a Qualified Transferee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10 shall not restrict the ability of any direct or indirect parent of the Holder to pledge, mortgage, charge or otherwise dispose of or encumber its assets. In connection with any assignment or direct transfer of this Note (in whole or in part), the transferor and transferee shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form of Exhibit II hereto and provide a copy thereof to Notes Agent. Any offer, sale, assignment or other transfer of this Note is also subject to the restrictive legends of this Note. (b) The Notes Agent shall maintain and keep updated a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Holders of this Note and each Replacement Note and the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note (and accrued interest) and any Replacement Note (the “Registered Notes”). The initial address for the Holder of this Note shall be the address set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto and may be updated, from time to time, by written notice to the Note Obligors and Notes Agent. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Note Obligors, the Collateral Agent and the Holder of this Note or any Replacement Note shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of this Note or the applicable Replacement Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Notes Agent shall provide a copy of the Register to the Holder and backup calculations for the values relating to this Note in the Register. A Registered Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part, to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 10(a) and any other terms hereof, only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon the Notes Agent’s receipt of a permitted request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the Holder of the applicable Registered Note, an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, a Joinder Agreement (as defined in the Collateral Agency Agreement), any tax forms required by Section 16 and any KYC information required by the Note Purchase Agreement, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to Notes Agent, and the physical surrender of such applicable Registered Note to the Note Obligors, the Notes Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register and the Note Obligors shall issue one or more new Registered Notes, the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of which is the same as the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of the surrendered Registered Note, to the Transferee pursuant to Section 11. The provisions of this Section 10(b) are intended to cause the Note to be in “registered form” as defined in Treasury Regulations Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c), or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (and any successor sections) and shall be interpreted and applied consistently therewith. SECTION 11. REISSUANCE OF THE NOTE. (a) Transfer. If this Note is permitted to be transferred, in whole or in part, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Note Obligors, whereupon the Note Obligors will issue and deliver a Replacement Note to the Transferee (in accordance with


 
19 Section 11(d)), representing the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note held by the Holder is being transferred, a new note (in accordance with Section 11(d)) to the Holder, representing the portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance not being transferred (each, a “Replacement Note” and collectively, the “Replacement Notes”). The Holder and the Transferee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 11(d), following redemption of any portion of this Note, the Outstanding Principal Balance represented by this Note may be less than the Outstanding Principal Balance stated on the face of this Note. (b) Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Note Obligors, for Replacement Notes representing in the aggregate the Outstanding Principal Balance of this Note in accordance with Section 11(d). Each such Replacement Note will represent such portion of such Outstanding Principal Balance as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender. The Original Principal Amount shall be allocated pro rata between such Replacement Notes based on the Outstanding Principal Balance designated for each. (c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Note Obligors of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Note Obligors of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Note Obligors in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Note Obligors shall execute and deliver to the Holder a Replacement Note (in accordance with Section 11(d)), representing the Outstanding Principal Balance. (d) Issuance of Replacement Notes. Whenever the Note Obligors are required to issue a Replacement Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such Replacement Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such Replacement Note, the remaining Outstanding Principal Balance (or, in the case of a Replacement Note being issued pursuant to Section 11(a) or Section 11(c), the Outstanding Principal Balance designated by the Holder which, when added to the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance represented by the other Replacement Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the remaining Outstanding Principal Balance under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of Replacement Notes), (iii) shall be deemed to have an Original Principal Amount calculated in accordance with Section 11(b), (iv) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such Replacement Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (v) shall be deemed to have accrued its proportional share of the interest under this Note from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Due Date, (vi)shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (vii) shall be timely prepared and issued by the Note Obligors. The Note Obligors shall provide Notes Agent with notice of any issuance of Replacement Notes and the details in respect thereof to permit the Notes Agent to revise the Register. SECTION 12. DISPUTES REGARDING ARITHMETIC CALCULATIONS. If the Holder disagrees with any arithmetic calculations performed by the Note Obligors pursuant to this


 
20 Note, the Holder shall submit to the Note Obligors its calculations thereof. If the Holder and the Note Obligors are unable to agree upon such calculation within five (5) Business Days of the submission by the Holder, then the Note Obligors shall, within five (5) Business Days thereafter submit the disputed arithmetic calculation to the Note Obligors’ independent, outside accountant, or if such accountant is unwilling or prohibited, an accountant reasonably satisfactory to the parties (which is ranked in the top twenty (20) accounting firms nationally, by revenue). The Note Obligors shall cause such accountant to perform the calculation and notify the Note Obligors and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed calculation. The Holder shall pay the costs and expenses of such accountant unless the calculation of such accountant is mathematically closer to the Holder’s calculation than the calculation submitted by the Note Obligors, in which case, the costs and expenses of such accountant shall be paid by the Note Obligors. Such calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent manifest error. SECTION 13. NOTICES AND PAYMENTS. (a) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall in writing and mailed or delivered personally, by overnight courier, by electronic mail or other or other electronic transmission to each party as follows: (i) if to the Holder, at the Holder’s address set forth in the Register, or (ii) if to the Note Obligors, at the address set forth on the Note Obligors’ signature page hereto, or at such other address as the Note Obligors shall have furnished to the Holder in writing. All such notices and communications will be deemed effectively given the earlier of (i) when received, (ii) when delivered personally, (iii) one Business Day after being deposited with an overnight courier service of recognized standing or (iv) four days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage prepaid. (b) Payments. Whenever any payment of cash is to be made by the Note Obligors to any Person pursuant to this Note, such payment shall be made in cash via wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Holder’s wire transfer instructions are attached hereto as Exhibit I. In the event of a change of Holder’s wire transfer instructions, Holder shall provide the Note Obligors and Collateral Agent with five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of such change and any amounts paid by the Note Obligors to the account listed on Exhibit I hereto prior to such notice shall be deemed paid to the Holder. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day; provided, however, that in the case of any Interest Payment Due Date on which the Note Obligors is paying PIK Interest and that is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. SECTION 14. WAIVER OF NOTICE. To the extent permitted by Law, unless otherwise provided herein, the Note Obligors hereby waives demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by Law. (d) In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable Law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such Law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any Law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note. SECTION 16. TAX MATTERS. (a) All amounts payable or deliverable in respect of this Note, whether in respect of principal, interest (including accrued interest) or otherwise, will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is required by Law.

DB1/ 149227402.4



5.6.2.The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares the (“Shares”) to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Shares to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. The Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Shares.
5.6.3.Certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares shall not be required to contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.8 hereof): (i) following a sale of the Conversion Shares pursuant to a registration statement covering the resale of such Conversion Shares, while such registration statement is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Conversion Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Conversion Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC.

The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4.8 or this Section 5.6.
5.7.Furnishing of Information. Until the time that no Purchaser owns any Shares, the Company covenants to use commercially reasonable efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act.
5.8.Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Shares may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the
24
DB1/ 149227402.4



Company may have against the Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.
5.9.Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, no later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City Time) on the fourth (4th) Business Day immediately following the date hereof, file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Note Purchase Agreement Amendment and the License Agreement. The Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of a Purchaser, or without the prior consent of the Purchasers of at least a majority of the Preferred Shares, with respect to any press release of the Company, except if such disclosure is required by law or regulation, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication; provided that this Section 5.9 shall not in any way restrict or impair the obligations of the Company or any Purchaser to respond to routine examinations, demands, requests or reporting requirements of a regulator without prior notice to or consultation with the Purchasers or the Company, respectively; provided, further, that only to the extent that the responding party is in possession of confidential information of the other party at such time, the responding party shall inform the other party in writing as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of a request for such examination, demand, request, or reporting requirement.
5.10.Reservation of Common Stock. Subject to the Issuance Limitation, the Company has reserved, and shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times prior to issuance, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, free of preemptive rights or any other rights of any other securityholders (including holders of equity incentive plan entitlements).
5.11.Beneficial Ownership Limitation. A Purchaser may notify the Company in writing (which may be by email to legal@sonder.com) in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this Section 5.11; however, no Purchaser shall be subject to this Section 5.11 unless he, she or it makes such election. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Certificate of Designation, if the election is made by a Purchaser, the Company shall not effect any conversion of the Preferred Shares, and the Purchaser shall not have the right to convert any portion of its Preferred Shares, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion set forth on an applicable Optional Conversion Notice (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) with respect to the Preferred Shares, such Purchaser (together with any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Purchaser’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including any “group” of which the Purchaser is a member) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Purchaser shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares subject to the
25
DB1/ 149227402.4



Optional Conversion Notice with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Preferred Shares beneficially owned by such Purchaser, and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Purchaser (including, without limitation, any convertible notes, convertible stock or warrants) that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 5.11, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. In addition, for purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. For purposes of this Section 5.11, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Purchaser may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (i) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company that is filed with the SEC or (iii) a more recent notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of a Purchaser (which may be by email), the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days of such request, confirm in writing to such Purchaser (which may be via email) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including Preferred Shares, by such Purchaser since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the Holder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be set at the discretion of any Purchaser that makes an election between 4.9% and 19.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Optional Conversion Notice (to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 5.11). By written notice to the Company, a Purchaser may from time to time increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage not in excess of 19.9% specified in such written notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such written notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to such Purchaser sending such notice and not to any other Purchaser. The provisions of this Section 5.11 shall be construed, corrected and implemented in a manner so as to effectuate the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Preferred Shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Purchaser for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act.
5.12.Participation in Future Financing.
5.12.1.Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, from the date hereof until the date that is the five (5) year anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, upon any issuance by the Company of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate, on the same terms and conditions provided for in the
26
DB1/ 149227402.4



Subsequent Financing, in an amount equal to such Purchaser’s Pro-Rata Share (as defined below) of twenty-five (25%) percent of the aggregate principal amount of any such Subsequent Financing; provided, however, the Purchasers shall have the right to purchase such securities in any Subsequent Financing at a purchase price equal to seventy-five (75%) percent of the purchase price of any other investor in a Subsequent Financing, subject to compliance with Nasdaq stockholder approval rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to seek such stockholder approval and may make such determination in its sole discretion. For purposes of this Agreement, each Purchaser’s “Pro-Rata Share” shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be beneficially owned by such Purchaser immediately prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing (based upon documentation or written representation reasonably satisfactory to the Company), divided by the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of outstanding Common Stock Equivalents deemed to be beneficially owned by such Purchaser and included in the numerator) immediately prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing.
5.12.2.At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (the “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Each Purchaser hereby agrees to keep the information contained in the Subsequent Financing Notice confidential. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.
5.12.3.Any Purchaser desiring to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) Business Day after such Purchaser has received the Subsequent Financing Notice, that the Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of the Purchaser’s elected participation, and representing and warranting that the Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no such notice from a Purchaser as of such second (2nd) Business Day, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate in the Subsequent Financing.
5.12.4.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.12 and unless otherwise agreed to by all Purchasers, the Company shall either confirm in writing to each Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to effect the Subsequent Financing, in either case, in such a manner such that a Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such fifth (5th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by a Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been
27
DB1/ 149227402.4



abandoned and the Purchaser shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company.

7.1.1.The Company agrees that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days following the the date on which the Company has filed the 2023 10-K and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 (such deadline, the “Filing Deadline”), the Company will submit to or file with the SEC a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”)
29
DB1/ 149227402.4



covering the resale of the Conversion Shares that are eligible for registration (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such submission or filing) (the “Registrable Shares”) and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 45th calendar day following the initial filing date of the Registration Statement if the SEC notifies the Company that it will not “review” the Registration Statement, (ii) the 90th calendar day following the initial filing date of the Registration Statement if the SEC notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement (including a limited review) and (iii) the 10th business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, however, that the Company’s obligations to include the Registrable Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Purchaser furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding Purchaser or its permitted assigns, the securities of the Company held by Purchaser and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Shares (which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings) as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Registrable Shares, and Purchaser shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents the Company from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under a Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 under the Securities Act for the resale of the Conversion Shares pursuant to this Article VII by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Conversion Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Conversion Shares as is permitted to be registered by the SEC. In such event, the number of Conversion Shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in such Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In the event the Company amends the Registration Statement in accordance with the foregoing, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the SEC, one or more registration statements to register the resale of those Registrable Shares that were not registered on the initial Registration Statement, as so amended. Any failure by the Company to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 7.
7.1.2.At its expense the Company shall:
7.1.2.1. except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which the Company determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to Purchaser, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earlier of the following: (A) Purchaser ceases to hold any Registrable Shares and (B) the date all Registrable Shares held by Purchaser
30
DB1/ 149227402.4



may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, including, without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) (the period of time during which the Company is required hereunder to keep a Registration Statement effective is referred to herein as the “Registration Period”);
7.1.2.2.during the Registration Period, advise Purchaser, as expeditiously as practicable:
7.1.2.2.1.when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC;
7.1.2.2.2.after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;
7.1.2.2.3.of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
7.1.2.2.4.subject to the provisions in this Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company shall not, when so advising Purchaser of such events, provide Purchaser with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company other than to the extent that providing notice to Purchaser of the occurrence of the events listed in (A) through (D) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company, in which case the Company shall direct its counsel to confer with the counsel of Purchaser to discuss such information to determine the proper course of action with respect to such information;
7.1.2.3.during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;
7.1.2.4.during the Registration Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 7(b)(ii)(D) above, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part
31
DB1/ 149227402.4



of a Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
7.1.2.5.during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of all Registrable Shares on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the shares of common stock issued by the Company have been listed;
7.1.2.6.during the Registration Period, otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Purchaser, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in connection with the registration of the Registrable Shares.
7.1.3.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to delay the filing or effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, the Registration Statement if it determines that in order for the Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, (i) an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act, (ii) the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Company or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event Board reasonably believes would require additional disclosure by the Company in the Registration Statement of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the Board to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements, or (iii) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the members of the Board, such filing or effectiveness or use of such Registration Statement, would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the majority of the members of the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer such filing (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Company may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two occasions or for more than thirty (30) consecutive calendar days, or more than one sixty (60) total calendar days in each case during any twelve-month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Purchaser agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Purchaser receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees
32
DB1/ 149227402.4



to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Company, Purchaser will deliver to the Company or, in Purchaser’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Shares in Purchaser’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Shares shall not apply (A) to the extent Purchaser is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (1) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (2) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (B) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.
7.1.4.Indemnification.
7.1.4.1.the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Parties, from and against any Losses to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, arising out of, relating to or based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or other document, including any Blue Sky Application (as defined below), or any amendment or supplement thereof or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or, in the case of the Registration Statement, necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or, in the case of any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or other document, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser or the Other Purchasers expressly for use therein; (ii) any Blue Sky Application or other document executed by the Company specifically for that purpose or based upon written information furnished by the Company filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Preferred Shares and Conversion Shares under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information herein called a “Blue Sky Application”); (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or its agents of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any similar federal or state law or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to any action or inaction required of the Company in connection with the registration or the offer or sale of the Conversion Shares pursuant to any Registration Statement; or (iv) any failure to register or qualify the Conversion Shares included in any such Registration Statement in any state where the Company or its agents has affirmatively undertaken or agreed in writing that the Company will undertake such registration or qualification on the Purchaser’s behalf and will reimburse the Purchaser Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such Losses; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such Losses arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
33
DB1/ 149227402.4



omission so made in conformity with information furnished by the Purchaser or any such controlling Person in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or prospectus.
7.1.4.2.Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (A) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (B) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
7.1.4.3.The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.
7.1.4.4.If the indemnification provided under this Section 7(d)(iv) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the
34
DB1/ 149227402.4



case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7(d)(i) and (ii) above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d)(iv) from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.4
SONDER HOLDINGS INC.
VOTING AGREEMENT
THIS VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August 13, 2024, by and among Sonder Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the party on the signature pages hereto (the “Investor”).
RECITALS
A.    Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Company and the Investor are entering into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) providing for the sale of shares of Preferred Stock, with each share of Preferred Stock being convertible into one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”).
B.    As a condition to the entrance into the Purchase Agreement by the Investor, the Company and the Investor have agreed to take certain actions in connection with the voting rights of the Investor as described herein.
Now, therefore, the parties agree as follows:
1.Vote to Increase Authorized Common Stock. The Investor agrees at each duly called meeting of the stockholders of the Company (and any adjournment or postponement thereof), and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of the Company requested by the Company Board of Directors, to vote or cause to be voted all shares of Common Stock, shares of Special Voting Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Special Voting Common Stock”, collectively with the Common Stock, the “Securities”), owned by the Investor, or over which the Investor has voting control, including with respect to any Securities acquired or controlled by the Investor following the date hereof, in favor of any Company proposal solely to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to ensure that there will be sufficient shares of Common Stock available for conversion of all of the shares of Preferred Stock outstanding at any given time and for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, in favor of any related amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, provided that, the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock for general corporate purposes shall not exceed 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
2.Vote to Authorize Conversion of Preferred Stock. The Investor agrees at each duly called meeting of the stockholders of the Company (and any adjournment or postponement thereof), and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of the Company requested by the Company Board of Directors to vote or cause to be voted all shares of Common Stock and Special Voting Common Stock owned by the Investor, or over which the Investor has voting control, including with respect to any shares acquired or controlled by the Investor following the date hereof, in favor of any Company proposal to approve the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Preferred Stock, as required by and in accordance with Nasdaq Rules 5635(b), (c) and (d); for the

No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default previously or thereafter occurring.

All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
6.10Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

6.12Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, etc. In the event of any issuance of shares of Preferred Stock, Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company hereafter to the Investor (including, without limitation, in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, or the like), such shares of Preferred Stock, Common Stock or other voting securities shall become subject to this Agreement and shall be notated with the legend set forth in Section 6.12.

3632659v2 –License Agreement        6

Marriott will not have the right to set-off or deduct from any Key Money payable under this Section 4.8 for any amounts. If there is a Critical Default at the time the First Portion of Key Money and/or Second Portion of Key Money, as applicable, is payable to Sonder, then the First Portion of Key Money and/or Second Portion of Key Money, as applicable, will be paid by Marriott within 3 days after Marriott has confirmed that Sonder has cured all such Critical Defaults and there are no further uncured Critical Defaults by Sonder at such time.

4.7.3.Repayment of Key Money. If (i) this Agreement is terminated for any reason, then Sonder will reimburse to Marriott, before the effective date of the termination, an amount equal to (x) the amount of Key Money, divided by (y) the number of months from the date the Key Money was paid until the last day of the Term multiplied by (z) the number of months remaining in the Term as of the date of termination of the Agreement (such reimbursement amount, the “Unamortized Key Money”).

4.8.Program Services Contribution.
A.    Program Services. With respect to each Property, beginning on such Property’s Initial Availability Date, Sonder will pay Marriott each month the Program Services Contribution for such Property. The amount of the Program Services Contribution for each Property as of the Effective Date is set out in Item 2 of Exhibit A. Marriott will use the Program Services Contribution to fund certain mandatory programs and services for the Collection that Sonder would otherwise be required to pay for separately (“Program Services”), which include, to the extent described in the applicable Disclosure Document and in Exhibit C:
1.    development, modification, maintenance, support, administration and operation of certain mandatory Electronic Systems, including the Reservation System;
2.    development, operation, administration and oversight of certain other mandatory programs and services; and
3632659v2 –License Agreement        8    


3.    the retention or employment of personnel, consultants and other professionals to assist in the development, implementation and administration of Program Services, including collection and accounting of the Program Services Fund, as well as overhead, other costs incurred in providing Program Services, and the reimbursement of capital invested in the development of such Program Services, together with costs incurred by Marriott to finance such capital.
Unless otherwise determined by Marriott, Program Services do not include services or costs relating to the purchase, installation or deployment of, or training for, any Electronic System.
B.    Intentionally Omitted.
C.    Permitted Changes. Marriott may at any time: (i) change the method of funding Program Services (including by establishing methods of funding Program Services other than by the Program Services Contribution); (ii) modify Program Services; (iii) change the programs and services covered by the Program Services Contribution; (iv) change the amount of the Program Services Contribution or the method of calculation of the Program Services Contribution; (v) merge or operate the Program Services Fund together with program services funds used to benefit other Marriott Products; or (vi) discontinue the use of the Program Services Contribution to fund any one or all mandatory programs or services for the Collection, and Sonder will be bound by any such changes, provided that (a) such changes apply to all or substantially all franchisees of Comparable Properties, and (b) with respect to clause (iv), any change of the amount of the Program Services Contribution (or any change to the Sales and Marketing Charge) will be proportional to the change in the amount of the program services contribution (or, as applicable, any change to the marketing fund contribution) paid by franchisees of Comparable Properties. For illustrative purposes only, if the first increase in the per Guestroom charge for Comparable Properties after the Effective Date is from $55 to $60 (a 9.1% increase), the per Guestroom charge in the Program Services Contribution for the Hotel Properties would also increase by 9.1% (from $55 to $60) and the per Guestroom charge in the Program Services Contribution for the Apartment Properties would increase by 9.1% from $60 to roughly $65.45.
D.    Benefits. Marriott may use the Program Services Fund to cover the costs of Program Services for the Collection as a whole, other Systems, and other Marriott Products. Marriott has no obligation to ensure that any particular Property benefits from Program Services on a pro-rata or other basis or that the Collection will benefit from Program Services proportionate to the Program Services Contribution paid by Sonder.
E.    No Fiduciary Duty. Marriott and its Affiliates do not hold the amounts collected for the Loyalty Chargeout, Program Services Contribution or Sales and Marketing Charge as a trustee or as trust funds and have no fiduciary duty to Sonder for such funds. The Loyalty Chargeout, Program Services Contribution and Sales and Marketing Charge may be commingled with other money of Marriott and its Affiliates and used to pay all costs, including administrative costs, salaries and overhead, and collection and accounting costs, incurred by Marriott or any of its Affiliates. Marriott or its Affiliates may: (i) loan money for Program Services and Marketing Activities and charge interest on any such loan; and (ii) use the Loyalty Chargeout, Program Services Contribution or Sales and Marketing Charge to repay any such loan plus interest.
F.    Other Mandatory Services and Trigger Fees. In addition to the Program Services, Sonder will participate in (a) the programs and services forth in Exhibit N, and (b) the Collection Learning and Development Bundle (collectively, the “Mandatory Services”) in consideration for which Sonder will pay to Marriott the then-current cost of, or fees owed in connection with, such

Marriott may at any time: (i) modify Mandatory Services or Trigger Fees; (ii) change the costs of, or the amounts of any fees owed in connection with, any Mandatory Services or the amounts of any Trigger Fees; or (iii) discontinue or add any Mandatory Services or Trigger Fees, and Sonder will be bound by any such changes, provided that such changes apply to all or substantially all franchisees of Comparable Properties.
G.    Optional Services. Marriott will make certain other programs and services available to each Property that it makes available to Comparable Properties (as applicable, the “Optional Services”). To the extent Sonder elects to participate in any Optional Services in accordance with the following sentence, in consideration for such Optional Services, Sonder will pay to Marriott the then-current cost of such Optional Services provided by Marriott (as set forth in the then-current applicable Disclosure Document).

C.    Collection Launch. Marriott and Sonder will work together to develop a comprehensive strategy to market the launch of the Collection, including email marketing, social media activation, global sales organization activation, and promotion on Marriott’s and Sonder’s digital channels.
D.    Brand Bar. Subject to the following sentence and Section 10.5.E, Marriott will include the name of the Collection on Marriott’s brand bar (the “Brand Bar”) as “Sonder” so long as the Brand Bar continues to exist (and, should the Brand Bar be discontinued, the Collection will be treated on the same basis as other properties operating under comparable Marriott Brands); provided, however, the parties will mutually agree on representation across various platforms with the goal of not modifying Sonder’s logo, or property names or similar identifiers for any of the Properties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will Sonder or any Sonder Party be obligated to modify any logo, property names or similar identifiers for any of the Properties other than pursuant to Section 10.5.E. If at any time the number of aggregate Guestrooms at the Properties falls below 5,000 Guestrooms, Marriott will have the right to require the Properties to be branded under appropriate Marriott Brands selected by Marriott in its Reasonable Business Judgment, provided that, unless otherwise agreed by Marriott and Sonder at such time, the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the fees, charges and costs payable under Article 4) will not be adjusted as a result thereof except that (1) notwithstanding the terms of Exhibit D, the Loyalty Chargeout for each Property will be set as the applicable amount for the selected Marriott Brand for such Property, and (2) notwithstanding the terms of Section 4.3, the Sales and Marketing Charge for each Property will be set as the applicable amount of the then-current marketing fund contribution for the selected Marriott Brand for such Property.
E.    Use of Marketing Materials. The Marriott Parties will use Marketing Materials that display or contain the Sonder Proprietary Marks or reference any of the Sonder Parties only in the places and manner (1) reasonably approved by Sonder and in accordance with Sonder’s standards (to the extent communicated to Marriott in writing) or (2) consistent with prior approvals by Sonder with respect to such Marketing Materials. Marriott will deliver samples of Marketing Materials that display or contain the Sonder Proprietary Marks or reference any of the Sonder Parties and are not provided by Sonder and obtain prior approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) from Sonder before any use (other than to the extent consistent with previously approved Marketing Materials). Sonder will respond to any request by Marriott for approval of such Marketing Materials contemplated by this Section 6.2.E within 30 days after request. If Sonder fails to approve or disapprove such Marketing Materials within such 30 day period, the Marketing Materials will be deemed to have been approved by Sonder. If Sonder withdraws its approval upon written notice to Marriott, the Marriott Parties will promptly stop using such Marketing Materials. Any Marketing Materials developed by the Marriott Parties may solely be used by the Sonder Parties with respect to the Properties or the Collection, unless otherwise approved by Marriott in its sole and absolute discretion.
F.    Additional Marketing Programs. Sonder may elect to participate in optional Additional Marketing Programs in its sole and absolute discretion. Sonder will pay for Additional Marketing Programs in which it participates on the same basis as other participating Comparable Properties.

6.3.Marriott Loyalty Program. Sonder will cause the Properties and the applicable Sonder Parties to participate in the Marriott Loyalty Program in accordance with the terms and conditions of Exhibit D.
6.4.Inventory, Pricing, Rates and Reservations.
A.    Pricing and Rates. Sonder is responsible for setting its own prices and rates for Guestrooms and other products and services at the Properties, including determining any prices or rates that appear in the Reservation System. Marriott may, however: (i) prohibit certain types of charges or billing practices that Marriott reasonably determines are misleading or detrimental to the Collection or the Marriott Parties, including price-gouging or incremental fees for services that guests would normally expect to be included in the Guestroom charge (excluding early check-in fees, no-show fees, early departure fees, late check-out fees, attrition or cancellation fees, and, to the extent approved by Marriott in writing, resort fees or destination fees, which the parties agree will be excluded from this clause (i)); or (ii) impose other pricing requirements required by Applicable Law or as set forth in the Standards that apply for substantially all franchised Marriott Lodging Facilities in the same Category as the Properties. Sonder will comply with Marriott’s Best Rate Guarantee and Explore programs.
B.    Pricing Recommendations; Participation in Programs. Marriott may recommend prices or rates for the products and services offered by the Sonder Parties or participation in various sales or inventory management programs or promotions offered by Marriott. Marriott’s recommendations are not mandatory; the Sonder Parties have sole authority to determine and are ultimately responsible for determining the prices or rates at which they offer their products and services, and Marriott’s recommendations are not a representation or warranty by Marriott that the use of such recommended prices or rates will produce, increase, or optimize Sonder’s profits. Marriott will have no liability for any such recommendations, including those made in connection with any sales activity or Inventory Management. Marriott may require Sonder to participate in Inventory Management (as of the Effective Date, One Yield) or may act as Sales Agent for Sonder. If Marriott is deemed to be acting as Sales Agent for a Sonder Party, such Sonder Party consigns Property inventory to Marriott, and such Sonder Party retains all risk of loss of unsold inventory or inventory sold at a reduced price.
C.    Honoring Reservations. During the Term, the Sonder Parties will provide prices and rates for the Properties for use in the Reservation System in accordance with Section 6.4.A. The Sonder Parties will: (i) honor any prices, rates or discounts that appear in the Marriott Channels; (ii) honor all reservations made through the Marriott Channels or that are confirmed; and (iii) not charge any Property guest a rate higher than the rate specified for the Property guest’s reservation in the Reservation System or, if not made through the Reservation System, in the reservation confirmation or contract entered into by Sonder (other than as a result of modifications to such reservation).
6.5.Marriott Distribution Agreements. To the extent permitted under Marriott’s agreements with online travel agencies such as Expedia.com and Booking.com (the “Marriott OTA Agreements”), Sonder will have the option, in its sole discretion, to participate in the Marriott OTA Agreements. Such option may be exercised by Sonder annually or at such other times as permitted under the Marriott OTA Agreements, and only with respect to all Marriott OTA Agreements collectively [**]. If Sonder exercises its option to cause the Properties to participate in the Marriott OTA Agreements, (i) all Properties must participate in all Marriott OTA Agreements, (ii) Sonder will not enter into and will not permit any Property to participate in any third party distribution agreement other than the Marriott OTA Agreements except as permitted under, and in accordance with, the Distribution Standards, and (iii) Sonder will, and will cause the Owners and Properties to, comply with
3632659v2 –License Agreement        14    


the terms of the Marriott OTA Agreements, to the extent the applicable terms of the Marriott OTA Agreements have been communicated by Marriott to Sonder in writing.
6.6    Property Names. The parties agree that the names of each Property will be updated to include a designation denoting whether such Property is an Apartment Property or Hotel Property and, in this regard, the parties, working through the JOC, will work together to determine the appropriate language to be included in the updated names of each Property prior to each Property’s Initial Availability Date.

6.7    Home Rental Properties. For any Properties that are located within what would typically be considered a single-family home, townhome, or similar single-building dwelling (“Home Rental Properties”), Marriott may elect to exclude such Home Rental Properties from the Collection and, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of Marriott’s Homes & Villas platform, include such Home Rental Properties on Marriott’s Homes & Villas platform instead. In this regard, the parties will work together through the JOC between the Effective Date and each Property’s Initial Availability Date to determine which Properties will be designated as Home Rental Properties.

7.ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
7.1.Limited Grant and Term. Marriott grants to Sonder and the applicable Sonder Parties a limited, non-exclusive license to use the Electronic Systems. For each Electronic System, the license begins on the date it is installed and ends on the earlier of the date when (i) such Electronic System is no longer used as part of the Collection or (ii) this Agreement terminates or expires.
7.2.Systems Installation and Use.
Sonder will (or will cause the applicable Sonder Party to), at its cost, obtain, install, maintain, use and replace at the Properties all mandatory Electronic Systems (and optional Electronic Systems that Sonder elects in its sole and absolute discretion to use) in compliance with the Standards that apply to all or substantially all franchised Marriott Lodging Facilities. Sonder will use the Electronic Systems exclusively for marketing (after conferring with the JOC) and operating each Property under this Agreement and will pay all Electronic Systems Fees (some of which will be paid as part of the Program Services Contribution). Sonder will (i) not use the Electronic Systems for any purpose except for the benefit of the Properties and the Collection, and (ii) take any other actions required to protect the Electronic Systems and the data stored or communicated via the Electronic Systems. The Electronic Systems that are proprietary to Marriott and its Affiliates or third party vendors, as applicable, will remain their sole property, and Sonder will not contest such ownership.
7.3.Reservation Systems.
    A.    Reservation System. Marriott will (i) starting on the Initial Onboarding Date, list Sonder on the Brand Bar with a redirect to Sonder.com (provided that Marriott will use reasonable efforts to list Sonder on the Brand Bar with a redirect to Sonder.com within 90 days after the Effective Date), and (ii) starting on each Property’s Initial Availability Date, make the Reservation System available to such Property. Starting on each Property’s Initial Availability Date, Sonder will cause such Property to participate in the Reservation System in accordance with the Distribution Standards, Data Privacy Standards, and this Agreement. Marriott is not required to make the Reservation System available to the Properties for any reservations occurring after the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
3632659v2 –License Agreement        15    


    B.    Sonder Reservations. Marriott hereby acknowledges that, as of the Effective Date, Sonder accepts reservations for the Properties through a separate reservation system for Sonder and its Affiliates (the “Sonder Reservation System”). Sonder will have the right to continue to accept reservations through the Sonder Reservation System for each Property from the Effective Date until such Property’s Initial Availability Date; provided, however, that beginning on the Initial Onboarding Date all revenue resulting from reservations booked through the Sonder Reservation System will be included in Gross Rooms Revenue. Beginning on the Go-Live Date and throughout the remainder of the Term, Sonder will not accept reservations through the Sonder Reservation System until such time as Sonder has notified Marriott in writing that it intends to add a “shop and book” feature on Sonder’s Website (the “Storefront”) and the parties have entered into an amendment to this Agreement to allow the Storefront and update certain provisions related to the Storefront, including integration costs, parity requirements, and Sections 7.3, 11.2, 11.3, and 18.3; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Sonder will have the right to continue to accept reservations through the Sonder Reservation System for any Property that has not yet had an Initial Availability Date.
    C.    Transition. The parties agree to cooperate and work together to transition all Properties onto the Electronic Systems (the “Transition”) by the Go-Live Date in accordance with the terms of Exhibit E.
7.4.Sonder Application. Until such time as there is an Electronic System available to the Properties to complete Guest ID verification, Marriott acknowledges and consents to Sonder’s utilization (including such utilization in connection with the Properties) of Sonder’s web application for purposes of Guest ID verification at the Properties (the “Sonder Application”). All use of the Sonder Application must comply with the Data Privacy Standards and Marriott will have the right to require Sonder to cease using the Sonder Application at any time that the Sonder Application does not meet the Data Privacy Standards.
7.5.Counseling and Advisory Services. Upon request from Sonder, Marriott will make representatives available at Marriott’s designated offices or at the Properties to consult with Sonder about the Electronic Systems at the Properties. Marriott may require Sonder to pay the Travel Costs of such representatives who consult at the Properties at the request of Sonder pursuant to this Section 7.5.
7.6.Modification of Electronic Systems. The Electronic Systems may be modified, enhanced, replaced or become obsolete, and new Electronic Systems may be created to meet the needs of the Collection, the Systems and continual changes in technology and Sonder will sign any standard and customary documents reasonably required by vendors of Electronic Systems setting forth the terms applicable to any such modified or new Electronic Systems; provided, however, that Sonder will comply with such modifications and new Electronic Systems to the extent the same apply to all or substantially all Comparable Properties.
7.7.Access to Information. Subject to Article 11, Marriott may access the information contained in the Electronic Systems and Sonder will take all actions reasonably necessary to provide such access. Marriott and its Affiliates and Sonder and its Affiliates may use any information contained in or obtained through the Electronic Systems, including Guest Personal Data, in each case subject to, and in accordance with, Sections 11.2 and 11.3. Marriott may suspend Sonder’s, any individual Property’s, or any individual Owner’s access to any Electronic Systems (a) to the extent reasonably required to protect Sonder Intellectual Property, Marriott Intellectual Property, the Electronic Systems or the intellectual property of third party vendors, or comply with Applicable Law, or (b) upon any breach of this Agreement by a Sonder Party or Owner, or, with respect to an Operated Property, the
3632659v2 –License Agreement        16    


Operated Property Owner’s breach of the Electronic Systems License Agreement. Marriott will use reasonable endeavors to resume access as soon as the applicable threat to Sonder Intellectual Property, Marriott Intellectual Property, the Electronic Systems or the intellectual property of third party vendors, Applicable Law, breach of this Agreement by a Sonder Party, or breach of the Electronic Systems License Agreement by an Operated Property Owner is cured or otherwise resolved; provided, however, that Marriott may not treat Sonder, any Property or any Owner inconsistently as compared to Marriott’ s treatment of other owners, licensees and franchisees of Marriott Lodging Facilities in similar situations.
7.8.Support Services. Marriott will use reasonable endeavors to maintain and support the Electronic Systems, including the Reservation Systems (the “Support Services”) during the Term at its sole cost and expense. The Support Services may be provided by Marriott, its Affiliates, or third party vendors.
7.9.Confidentiality Obligations. Sonder will treat the Electronic Systems as Marriott’s Confidential Information under this Agreement. Sonder will ensure that only authorized Persons have access to the Electronic Systems, and the Electronic Systems are only used for their intended purpose. Sonder will not, without the consent of Marriott or any third party vendor, copy, reverse engineer, modify, or provide unauthorized access to the Electronic Systems or any of its components. Sonder will not attempt to disregard or circumvent any measures used by Marriott to safeguard the Electronic Systems and the Marriott Intellectual Property.
7.10.Third Party Vendors. To the extent disclosed to Sonder in writing, Sonder will comply with the terms of any license for any of the Electronic Systems provided by a third party vendor. Sonder may be required to enter agreements with third party vendors and comply with any privacy and security standards to obtain access to certain Electronic Systems. Any third party vendor will have the right to enforce such terms directly against Sonder. Marriott will have no liability for Sonder’s use of any Electronic System provided by a third party vendor.
7.11.Preferred Vendors. Marriott may designate a third party vendor of Electronic Systems as a preferred vendor and require Sonder to use Electronic Systems provided by such vendor provided that such Electronic Systems are required to be used by all Comparable Properties.
7.12.No Endorsement or Warranty. Marriott does not endorse or make any representation or warranty about any Electronic System provided by third party vendors, including preferred vendors. Marriott provides the Electronic Systems and the Support Services on an as-is basis. Marriott disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including, the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, custom or usage in the trade, related to Sonder’s use of the Electronic Systems and the Support Services.
7.13.Technology Audit. At Marriott’s reasonable request, and subject to the terms of any applicable Lease, Sonder will provide Marriott and its authorized representatives access to any facility or system from which Sonder, or any of its Affiliates or agents has installed or is accessing the Electronic Systems, and to any data and records relating to the Electronic Systems, solely to the extent reasonably required for audit purposes to confirm that Sonder is complying with the terms of this Section 7 and the Data Privacy Standards. Sonder will cooperate in and provide any assistance reasonably required for such audits (in each case at no out-of-pocket cost or expense to Sonder).
7.14.Limitation on Liability. Marriott is not liable for any damage arising out of the use or failure of any Electronic Systems or Support Services, including corruption of data, and Sonder waives
3632659v2 –License Agreement        17    


any right to, or Claim of, any exemplary, incidental, indirect, special, consequential, or other similar damages (including loss of profits) related to the use or failure of Electronic Systems or Support Services (including to the extent affecting the Transition), even if Marriott has been advised of the possibility of such damage or failure. To the extent permissible, Marriott will use reasonable endeavors to make available for Sonder any warranties or other similar protections provided by Marriott’s vendors for the Electronic Systems.
7.15.Software License Rights on Termination. Generally, the Software that Sonder will purchase through Marriott is not assignable to Sonder on termination of this Agreement (“Non-Assignable Software”). When this Agreement terminates, Sonder will cease use of the Non-Assignable Software. At Sonder’s request, Marriott will use reasonable endeavors to facilitate the assignment of any Software that is assignable (“Assignable Software”). Promptly after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, Sonder will delete both Assignable Software and Non-Assignable Software obtained through Marriott.

Neither Sonder nor its Affiliates are Marriott’s agent for any purpose with regard to employees at the Properties.
C.    Communication with Managers. Marriott may communicate directly with the managers at the Properties about day-to-day operations of the Properties and Marriott may rely on such statements of the managers.

B.    Vacation Club Products. Sonder will not (and will not permit any other party to) operate, advertise or sell Vacation Club Products or any similar product sold on a periodic basis (including those which Sonder or its Affiliates operate or in which they have an Ownership Interest) at any Property, unless the Vacation Club Product or similar product is operated under a trade name or trademark owned by Marriott or any of its Affiliates.
C.    Inspection Rights. Sonder will, subject to the terms of any applicable Lease, permit Marriott’s representatives to enter and inspect the Properties at all reasonable times to confirm that Sonder is complying with the terms of this Agreement and the Collection Standards, provided that (i) such inspections will be at Marriott’s cost to the extent not covered by the Program Services Contribution or otherwise specified to be at Sonder’s cost in this Agreement, (ii) except for audits under the Quality Assurance Program, Marriott will give at least 48 hours’ prior written notice to Sonder of any such inspection, and (iii) in conducting such inspections, Marriott will not unduly interfere with the operation of the Properties (and Marriott and its representatives will comply with Sonder’s (and its representative’s) reasonable requests with respect to such inspections to minimize such interference).

Marriott may inspect, subject to the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Additional Businesses to confirm compliance with this Agreement at no out-of-pocket cost or expense to Sonder. The Additional Businesses are part of the Properties for purposes of Section 13.1 and Sonder will ensure that Marriott is included as an additional named insured on all insurance policies for the Additional Businesses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to Section 10.3, in no event will Marriott have the right to approve the operators or the brands of any Additional Businesses.

3632659v2 –License Agreement        19

9.2.Modification of Certain Standards. Marriott and its Affiliates may modify the Data Privacy Standards, Distribution Standards, FLS Standards, IP Standards, Security Standards, Signage Standards, and the Quality Assurance Program, and such modifications may include materially changing, adding or deleting elements of such standards; provided, however, in no event will Sonder, any Sonder Party or the Properties be obligated to comply with the same unless (i) such modifications apply to all or substantially all franchised Marriott Lodging Facilities, or (ii) if solely relating to the Data Privacy Standards, such modifications to the Data Privacy Standards relate to technology and processes utilized by the Sonder Parties but not other Marriott Lodging Facilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Sonder [**] and, thereafter, Sonder will be obligated to make such updates to the Properties [**] (specifically and expressly excluding changes to the specific requirements outside of Module 14 that are set out in Exhibit F as of the Effective Date).
9.3.Joint Operating Committee.
A.    Within 90 days after the Effective Date, Sonder and Marriott will establish a joint operating committee (the “JOC”). The purpose of the JOC is to review and provide broad guidance on activities and developments related to this Agreement, and such other responsibilities as mutually agreed upon by the Sonder and Marriott (the “JOC Scope”). Examples of the JOC Scope include, but are not limited to, (i) an annual planning process under which Sonder will provide Marriott with visibility into upcoming construction work, renovations, refurbishments or FF&E replacements or refreshments at the Properties, (ii) brand and loyalty, (iii) distribution, (iv) operations, (v) marketing, (vi) co-marketing, (vii) accounting, and (viii) addition of New Properties as provided under Section 1.5.
B.    Sonder will appoint and maintain during the Term the Sonder Relationship Manager. Sonder will keep Marriott informed from time to time of the individual(s) designated as the Sonder Relationship Manager, and may also (or may not, in Sonder’s sole and absolute discretion), from time to time, authorize (by prior written notice) Marriott to communicate with certain management level employees at each Property as a point of contact for Property specific matters related to this Agreement (e.g., the president and/or general manager of a Property). Marriott will appoint and maintain during the Term the Marriott Relationship Manager. Marriott will keep Sonder informed from time to time of the individual(s) designated as the Marriott Relationship Manager.
C.    The JOC will consist of members from each of Sonder and Marriott with reasonably comparable levels of seniority and who have expertise in the areas of reservation systems, distribution, revenue management, brand, and hotel operations.  The heads of the JOC will be the Sonder Relationship Manager and Marriott Relationship Manager, who will each have authority for any decisions
3632659v2 –License Agreement        20    


of the JOC for their respective party. Sonder and Marriott will endeavor to provide stability and continuity in the JOC positions. The JOC will hold regular meetings, no less frequently than on a quarterly basis or as otherwise agreed to by the Sonder and Marriott.  The JOC may meet in person or by telephone or videoconference; provided, that at least 1 meeting per year will be conducted in person and each party will take turns in deciding the venue, with Sonder having the right to choose the venue for the first annual meeting.
D.    Without in any manner limiting the rights of the Sonder and Marriott under this Agreement, including Section 8.2 and Section 23, the JOC will have authority (to the extent the proposed course of action has been approved by both the Sonder Relationship Manager and Marriott Relationship Manager) to act with respect to the day-to-day operations of the Properties and serve as a point of escalation for issues that arise and that fall within the JOC Scope; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, the JOC does not have any authority to modify this Agreement or authorize any activity that would be a violation of, or in any manner inconsistent with, the terms of this Agreement.
E.    If there is an event at any Property involving a serious and imminent threat to the health or safety of any Persons at such Property (a “Safety Threat”), or any other incident or matter concerning or related to any Property or the Collection that is likely to result in significant negative public attention directed at Sonder or Marriott (“Other Incident”), then Sonder will, to the extent reasonably practicable, (i) use good faith efforts to notify Marriott as soon as reasonably practicable of the (x) Safety Threat or (y) Other Incident and (ii) give good faith consideration to Marriott’s input with respect to such party’s press releases, interviews or public statements regarding such Safety Threat or Other Incident. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, Sonder will not be prohibited from issuing a public statement regarding such Safety Threat that complies with the terms of this Agreement.
9.4.Board Observer. For a period starting on the Effective Date and lasting until December 31, 2027, Marriott will have the right to appoint a representative of Marriott to attend all meetings of the Sonder board of directors or any committee thereof (collectively, the “Sonder Board”) as a non-voting observer (the “Observer”).  Marriott will choose the person serving as the Observer in its sole discretion, and will provide advance notice of such appointment and of any changes to such person.  The Observer will be permitted to attend (in-person or telephonically) all Sonder Board meetings in such capacity, and will receive advance notice of such meetings and copies of all materials provided in connection with such meetings, in each case, to the same extent as any other member of the Sonder Board.  The Observer will not be permitted to vote on any matter at Sonder Board meetings or request the preparation of any additional documents and will not be counted for the purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. The Observer may participate in discussions during any such meeting, provided that the Sonder Board will be under no obligation to take any action with respect to any proposals made or advice furnished by the Observer. The Sonder Board will have the right to exclude the Observer from any meetings or portions thereof or from access to any materials or portions thereof if the Sonder Board reasonably determines, after consultation with internal legal counsel, that such exclusion or withholding of materials is necessary to preserve attorney-client privilege.  The Observer will have a duty of confidentiality to Sonder comparable to the duty of confidentiality of any other member of the Sonder Board, provided that for the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Observer be deemed to owe any
3632659v2 –License Agreement        21    


fiduciary duties to any party, including without limitation Sonder, its Affiliates and its direct and indirect equity- or debt-holders.

3632659v2 –License Agreement        33    


received by Marriott will equal the full amount originally invoiced or otherwise payable. If required or permitted, Sonder must promptly pay any such deduction or withholding directly to the relevant governmental authority and provide Marriott proof of payment.
3.    If Applicable Law does not impose an obligation on Sonder to deduct or withhold Taxes directly from any amount paid to Marriott, but requires Marriott to pay such Taxes, then Sonder will pay Marriott, within 15 days after request, the full amount of the Taxes paid or payable by Marriott with respect to such payment so that the net amount actually retained by Marriott after payment of Taxes (other than taxes assessed on Marriott’s net income) will equal the full amount originally invoiced or otherwise payable.
C.    Sales Tax & Similar Taxes. The amounts payable to Marriott will not be reduced by any sales, goods and services, value added or similar taxes, all of which will be paid by Sonder. Therefore, in addition to making any payment to Marriott required under this Agreement, Sonder will: (i) pay Marriott the amount of these taxes due with respect to the payment; or (ii) if required or permitted by Applicable Law, pay these taxes directly to the relevant taxing authority.
D.    Tax Disputes. If there is a Dispute by Sonder as to any Tax liability, Sonder may contest the Tax liability in accordance with Applicable Law. If such Dispute involves payments of Taxes that will be withheld, deducted and paid by Sonder related to payments to Marriott as provided in this Section 12.5, Sonder will notify Marriott before taking action with regard to the Dispute with the tax authority and, if requested by Marriott, cooperate with Marriott in preparing its response. Upon Marriott’s request, Sonder will pay such Taxes and seek reimbursement from the governmental authority. Sonder will be responsible for any interest or penalties assessed.
12.6    Restrictions on Transfers of Funds. If there is any restriction on payments or the transfer of funds to Marriott or its Affiliates due to Applicable Law, Marriott and Sonder will cooperate to ensure full and timely payment. Marriott may instruct Sonder to pay or transfer funds from sources not subject to such Applicable Law restrictions or to deposit all payments in local accounts designated by Marriott and take such other action as Marriott may request to pay the outstanding amounts to Marriott after the payment or currency restriction ends. If Marriott does not receive payment within 60 days as directed, Marriott may (i) curtail performance of some or all of its obligations under this Agreement (including access to the Reservation System), and this curtailment is not a breach of the Agreement; and (ii) remove any Property from the Collection for which it has not received payment within 90 days. A removal under this Section will not be a default under this Agreement. Neither Marriott nor Sonder will be required to make or receive payments from a Restricted Person.

12.7    Currency.
1.1.1.Exchange Rate. All amounts payable to Marriott and Sonder under the Agreement will be paid in United States Dollars, unless either party agrees to receive payment in an alternative currency. The exchange rate used for each payment will be the exchange rate for the applicable currency, as quoted in the Published Source for the last business day of the month during which the payment obligation accrues.
1.1.2.Late Payments. In the case of a late payment, the exchange rate will be determined under Section 12.7.A. or on the date on which payment is made, whichever results in the higher amount to the owed party.
3632659v2 –License Agreement        34    


1.1.3.Payments in Other Currencies. If an amount is received in a currency other than United States Dollars without the owed party’s consent, the owing party’s obligation under this Agreement will be discharged only if such party can purchase United States Dollars with the other currency under normal banking procedures. If the amount in United States Dollars that may be purchased, after deducting any reasonable out-of-pocket costs, is less than the amount owed under this Agreement, the owing party will immediately pay the shortfall.
13.INDEMNIFICATION
13.1.Indemnification by Sonder. Sonder will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Marriott and its Affiliates (and each of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, current and former directors, officers, shareholders, subsidiaries, employees and agents), from and against all Claims and Damages, including allegations of negligence by such Persons to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, arising out of, resulting from or otherwise related to the execution of this Agreement and the performance by the Sonder Parties of their duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, including but not limited to: (i) the use of, or breach of Sonder’s obligations in this Agreement with respect to, Marriott Guest Personal Data or Marriott Intellectual Property by or on behalf of Sonder, any Management Company, any Owner, or their respective Affiliates, or otherwise in connection with the Properties or in violation of this Agreement; (ii) a Sonder Party’s, Management Company’s, or Owner’s violation of Applicable Law at or relating to the Properties or any other business conducted on, related to, or in connection with the Properties or this Agreement; (iii) the construction, conversion and renovation, repair, management, operation, ownership or use of the Properties (including Claims and Damages arising from a Security Incident or the use of the Other Marks, the Sonder Proprietary Marks, or the Third Party Marks) or of any Additional Business; (iv) a breach of Sonder’s obligations in this Agreement with respect to Operated Properties by or on behalf of any Sonder Party; or (v) the marketing of Operated Properties or prospective Operated Properties to Owners or prospective owners (including prospective New Owners) or any other Claims by Owners arising out of, resulting from or otherwise related to Management Agreements, any Sonder Party’s operation or management of a Property, or the Sonder Parties’ use of the Marriott Channels, Marriott’s Confidential Information or Electronic Systems. Marriott will have the right, at Sonder’s cost, to control the defense of any Claim (including the right to select its counsel or defend or settle any Claim) if Marriott determines such Claim may adversely affect the interests of Marriott or its Affiliates. Such undertaking by Marriott will not diminish Sonder’s indemnity obligations. Neither Marriott nor any indemnified Person will be required to seek recovery from third parties or mitigate its losses to maintain its right to receive indemnification from Sonder. The failure to pursue such recovery or mitigate its losses will not reduce the amounts recoverable from Sonder by an indemnified Person. Sonder’s obligation to maintain insurance under Section 14 will not relieve Sonder of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. Sonder’s obligations under this Section 13.1 will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
14.INSURANCE

The provisions of this Article will in no way limit the liability of Sonder. The obligations under this Article are mandatory.

18.2.2.1.1.1.3.Sonder or any of its Affiliates fail to pay any amounts due under this Agreement;
18.2.2.1.1.1.4.40% or more of all Properties fail to comply with the Collection Standards; or
18.2.2.1.1.1.5.There occurs any other material breach of this Agreement by any Sonder Party, including any representations and warranties by Sonder.
18.3.Performance Termination.

18.3.1.Distribution Threshold. Subject to Sections 18.3.B and 18.3.C, if the Distribution Threshold is not satisfied for any given test year (with the first test year starting on the first day of the first full month after the 2nd anniversary of the Effective Date and each subsequent test year
3632659v2 –License Agreement        44    


starting on the same date in the following year) during the Term (each, a “Distribution Failure”), the following will occur:

(i)    the Royalty Fee for the following year will decrease by 1.0% for the Properties (and if the Distribution Threshold is satisfied during the year following such Distribution Failure, the Royalty Fee for such following year will increase back to the standard amount for the immediately subsequent year);

(ii)    if such Distribution Failure is the second consecutive Distribution Failure, the Royalty Fee for the following year will decrease by an additional 1.0% (for a total reduction of 2.0% (the “Second Failure Penalty”)) for the Properties (and if the Distribution Threshold is satisfied during the year following such second consecutive Distribution Failure, the Royalty Fee for such following year will increase back to the standard amount that applied before the first Distribution Failure in such series of Distribution Failures). If the Distribution Threshold is not satisfied during any year following a year for which the Second Failure Penalty applies then the Second Failure Penalty will continue to apply for subsequent years until the Distribution Threshold for a subsequent year is satisfied but the Royalty Fee will not be reduced by more than 2.0% at any time; and

(iii)    if the Second Failure Penalty applies for 2 years (whether or not consecutive) in any consecutive 3-year period after the initial year in which the Second Failure Penalty applies, Sonder will have the right to terminate this Agreement effective on notice to Marriott (or on the expiration of any notice or cure period given by Sonder in its sole discretion or required by Applicable Law) without the payment of any fee, damage or other penalty by either party (other than the Unamortized Key Money); provided that such notice must be provided within 60 days after the end of the year in which the termination right is triggered.

18.3.2.Extraordinary Events. If an Extraordinary Event occurred during any test year that materially adversely affected at least 50% of the Properties or the booking of reservations through Marriott Channels for at least 50% of the Properties and, in such case, the same caused a Distribution Failure, then such year will be excluded from this Section 18.3 (both for purposes of whether a Distribution Failure has occurred and for whether a Distribution Failure has been cured and the Royalty Fees reset to the standard amount). If an Extraordinary Event occurred during any test year that materially adversely affected (x) one or more Properties but less than 50% of the Properties, or (y) the booking of reservations through Marriott Channels for one or more Properties but less than 50% of the Properties, then the Property(ies) actually affected by the Extraordinary Event during such year will be excluded from the calculation of the Distribution Threshold for such year.

18.3.3.BSA Performance. Marriott will have the right to exclude any Property from the calculation of the Distribution Threshold for any test year if such Property is in the red zones under the Quality Assurance Program during such year.

18.4.Termination for Change of Control of Sonder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, after the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, Sonder and Marriott will each have the right to terminate this Agreement effective on notice to the other party and payment of the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 18.5 below and payment of the Unamortized Key Money in accordance with Section 4.8.C, upon any Transfer of (or series of Transfers) of: (i) 50% of more of the direct or indirect Ownership Interests in Sonder to any Non-Controlled Person; (ii) 50% or more of Sonder’s direct or indirect Ownership Interests in all of the Properties to any Non-Controlled
3632659v2 –License Agreement        45    


Person; or (iii) the right to Control the day-to-day management or operations of Sonder or each Sonder Party that is the owner, lessee, or operator of a Property to any Non-Controlled Person.

18.5.Termination Fee.
18.5.1.Termination. As a condition to the effectiveness of any termination of this Agreement under Section 18.4, Sonder will pay Marriott a Termination Fee calculated as set forth in Section 18.5.B, which Termination Fee will, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, be Marriott’s sole and exclusive remedy for the termination of this Agreement under Section 18.4 (other than payment of the Unamortized Key Money).

18.5.2.Calculation of Termination Fee. The termination fee owed by to Marriott by Sonder in connection with any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 18.4 (the “Termination Fee”) will be in an amount equal to the following:

Date of Termination:Termination Fee:
Between the 5th anniversary and 10th anniversary of the Effective Date
The average monthly Royalty Fees for the past 24 months multiplied by 36
Between the 11th anniversary and 15th anniversary of the Effective Date
The average monthly Royalty Fees for the past 24 months multiplied by 24
Between the 16th anniversary and 19th anniversary of the Effective Date
The average monthly Royalty Fees for the past 24 months multiplied by 12
Between the 19th anniversary and 20th anniversary of the Effective Date
The average monthly Royalty Fees for the past 24 months multiplied by the number of months remaining in the Term

C.    Termination Fee Example. For illustrative purposes of calculating the Termination Fee only, if the average monthly Royalty Fees owed to Marriott during the previous 24 months preceding termination equals $500,000 and (i) there are 14 years remaining in the initial Term as of the date of termination, the Termination Fee will equal $18,000,000 (i.e., one year of Royalty Fees (36 x $500,000)) or (ii) there are 4 full months remaining in the initial Term as of the date of termination, the Termination Fee will equal $2,000,000 (i.e., 4 months of Royalty Fees (4 x $500,000)).

D.    Harm to Marriott. Sonder agrees that if it fails to operate the Properties under the Collection for the entire Term, Marriott will incur damages, including loss of future Royalty Fees and Program Services Contributions, and that replacement of the Properties with comparable Lodging Facilities will take significant time and effort. Sonder agrees that it is difficult to calculate such damages over the remainder of the Term and that the termination provided for in this Section 18.5 is not a penalty and represents a reasonable estimate of the minimum fair and just compensation for the damages that Marriott will incur.

18.6.Other Remedies. Each party’s ability to terminate this Agreement under Sections 18.1 or 18.2 as applicable, does not preclude such party from electing to pursue additional remedies under Applicable Law (including equitable remedies pursuant to Section 23.2), unless such remedies are
3632659v2 –License Agreement        46    


expressly limited pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any such election of remedies will not affect the obligations of each party to comply with Section 19.
19.POST-TERMINATION
19.1.Sonder Obligations.
A.    De-Identification. On the expiration or other termination of this Agreement, Sonder will (and will cause the applicable Sonder Parties to):

Marriott will have the right to recover reasonable legal fees and court costs incurred in collecting such amounts. If this Agreement is terminated under Section 20.2, Sonder will cooperate with Marriott in pursuing its claim under the business interruption insurance required under this Agreement.
19.2.Rights on Expiration or Termination. The parties will use good faith efforts to mutually agree on a communication plan prior to expiration or termination of this Agreement, including mutually agreeing on a joint notice that the Collection is ending. If the parties have not mutually agreed on a communication plan at least 90 days prior to the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Marriott and Sonder may give notice that the Collection is ending and take any other action reasonably necessary due to the expiration or termination of this Agreement related to customers, Travel Management Companies, suppliers and other Persons affected by such expiration or termination, and neither party will be liable to the other party for any Damages (other than to the extent resulting from third-party Claims to the extent an indemnity exists with respect thereto pursuant to Article 13) related to such notice or action taken in compliance with this Section 19.2.
19.3.Marriott’s Obligations.
A.    De-Identification. Upon the expiration or other termination of this Agreement, Marriott will (and will cause the applicable Marriott Parties to):

Marriott will not retain a copy of any Sonder Intellectual Property (including electronic copies), except for any documents that Marriott reasonably needs for compliance with Applicable Law. If Sonder explicitly permits Marriott to use any Sonder Intellectual Property after the termination or expiration date, such use by Marriott will be in accordance with this Agreement and Applicable Law; and
5.    within 30 days thereafter, other than to the extent required to comply with Applicable Law, cease using any of the Sonder’s Confidential Information and disclosing it to anyone not authorized by Sonder to receive it.
B.    Other Obligations and Termination Costs. On expiration or termination of this Agreement, Marriott will (a) comply with the obligations in the Sections referenced under Section 26.8;
3632659v2 –License Agreement        48    


and (b) promptly pay when invoiced all amounts owing to Sonder under this Agreement through the date of termination or set-off or deduct from such amounts any amounts owed to Marriott or any of its Affiliates by Sonder or any of its Affiliates under Section 19.1.C (but Marriott may not set-off or deduct against any amounts not contemplated under Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.8, 4.9, 7.2 or Exhibit D).
19.4    Post-Term Reservations. Marriott may, for each Property, (i) notify people with reservations at the Property for dates after the Removal or expiration or termination of this Agreement, as applicable, and Property guests that the Property is planning to exit the Collection or that the Collection is ending, as applicable, and (ii) elect not to take or allow any new reservations at the Property for dates that extend beyond the date of the Removal or expiration or termination of this Agreement, as applicable. Marriott will not be liable for any losses, including, but not limited to, losses resulting from cancellation of reservations or early departures, that might occur as a result of, or subsequent to, such people receiving such notice. Sonder will reimburse Marriott for any costs associated with the relocation of people to other Marriott Properties as a result of, or subsequent to, such people receiving such notice, including costs associated with relocating Loyalty Redemptions reservations.
20.CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY
20.1.Condemnation.
A.    Condemnation Notification. Sonder will promptly notify Marriott if it receives notice of any proposed taking of a material portion of a Property by eminent domain, condemnation, compulsory acquisition or similar proceeding by any governmental authority (“Condemnation”). Any condemnation award or similar compensation received by Sonder will be the property of Sonder and Marriott will have no claim with respect thereto; provided, however, Marriott will have the right to bring a separate proceeding against the condemning authority for any damages and expenses specifically incurred by Marriott as a result of such Condemnation.
B.    Condemnation Removal. Upon any Condemnation that results in Sonder’s decision to no longer operate such Property, Sonder will send Marriott written notice of the same and Marriott or Sonder may remove such Property from the Collection and this Agreement upon written notice to the other party, in which case, the parties will comply with the post-termination obligations in Section 19.
C.    Condemnation Restoration. If, notwithstanding a partial Condemnation, Sonder decides to continue operating such Property, Sonder will have no obligation to repair or restore the Property to its former condition. If (i) such partial Condemnation results in such Property no longer complying with the Collection Standards, and (ii) (I) Sonder sends to Marriott written notice of its intent not to restore the Property such that the same complies with the Collection Standards or (II) within 180 days after such partial Condemnation, Sonder has not taken any action to commence the restoration of the Property (which may include beginning preparation of conceptual plans or other planning activities) with the intent that the same will comply with the Collection Standards upon completion of such restoration, then either Sonder or Marriott may, within 90 days of the earlier of the occurrence of clause (I) or (II), remove such Property from the Collection and this Agreement upon written notice to the other party without damages, fees or other costs owed by either party.
D.    Condemnation Reinstatement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Property is removed from the Collection and this Agreement pursuant to this Section 20.1 and Sonder or an Affiliate of Sonder determines at any time during the Term to either (i) restore the Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to the Condemnation or that otherwise meets the Collection Standards (a
3632659v2 –License Agreement        49    


Property Restoration”) or (ii) if the building of such Property already meets the Collection Standards, recommence using the building as a Lodging Facility, then Sonder will provide Marriott with written notice of its intent to undertake such Property Restoration or recommence using the building as a Lodging Facility, and Marriott may deliver to Sonder written notice of its desire to reinstate such Property in this Agreement by providing notice to Sonder or its Affiliate within 90 days after receipt by Marriott of such notice from Sonder or its Affiliate; provided, however, that if Sonder or its Affiliate fails to give such notice and Marriott would have the right to reinstate upon the delivery of notice pursuant to this Section 20.1.D, then Marriott may deliver to Sonder written notice of its intent to reinstate such Property in this Agreement by providing notice to Sonder or its Affiliate within 90 days after Marriott becomes aware of Sonder’s desire to undertake such Property Restoration or recommence using the building as a Lodging Facility. Upon the delivery by Marriott of written notice of its desire to reinstate this Agreement as to a Property, the terms of Section 1.5 of this Agreement will apply to such Property, upon completion of such restoration, as if the same constituted a New Sonder Property.
20.2.Casualty.
A.    Casualty Notification. Sonder will promptly notify Marriott if a Property is materially damaged by any casualty.
B.    Casualty Removal. Upon any casualty that results in Sonder’s decision to no longer operate such Property, Sonder will send to Marriott written notice of the same, and Marriott or Sonder may remove such Property from the Collection and this Agreement upon written notice to the other party, in which case, the parties will comply with the post-termination obligations in Section 19.
C.    Casualty Restoration. If, notwithstanding a partial casualty, Sonder decides to continue operating such Property, Sonder will have no obligation to repair or restore the Property to its former condition. If (i) such partial casualty results in such Property no longer complying with the Collection Standards and (ii) (I) Sonder sends to Marriott written notice of its intent not to restore the Property such that the same complies with the Collection Standards or (II) within 180 days after such partial casualty, Sonder has not taken any action to commence the restoration of the Property (which may include beginning preparation of conceptual plans or other planning activities) with the intent that the same will comply with the Collection Standards upon completion of such restoration, then either Sonder or Marriott may, within 90 days of the earlier of the occurrence of clause (I) or (II), remove such Property from the Collection and this Agreement upon written notice to the other party without damages, fees or other costs owed by either party.
D.    Casualty Reinstatement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Property is removed from the Collection and this Agreement pursuant to this Section 20.2 and Sonder or an Affiliate of Sonder determines at any time during the Term to either (i) commence a Property Restoration or (ii) if the building of such Property already meets the Collection Standards, recommence using the building as a Lodging Facility, then Sonder will provide Marriott with written notice of its intent to undertake such Property Restoration or recommence using the building as a Lodging Facility, and Marriott may deliver to Sonder written notice of its desire to reinstate such Property in this Agreement by providing notice to Sonder or its Affiliate within 90 days after receipt by Marriott of such notice from Sonder or its Affiliate; provided, however, that if Sonder or its Affiliate fails to give such notice and Marriott would have the right to reinstate upon the delivery of notice pursuant to this Section 20.2.D, then Marriott may deliver to Sonder written notice of its intent to reinstate such Property in this Agreement by providing notice to Sonder or its Affiliate within 90 days after Marriott becomes aware of Sonder’s desire to undertake such Property Restoration or recommence using the building as a Lodging Facility. Upon the delivery by Marriott of written notice of its desire to reinstate this Agreement as to a Property, the terms of Section
3632659v2 –License Agreement        50    


1.5 of this Agreement will apply to such Property, upon completion of such restoration, as if the same constituted a New Sonder Property.
21.COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW; LEGAL ACTIONS
21.1.Compliance with Applicable Law. Sonder will comply with all Applicable Law (including in connection with the offer and sale of Properties (including New Sonder Properties), and the administration of the Sonder system and Properties under this Agreement, including all franchise and distribution laws), and will obtain all permits, certificates and licenses necessary to operate the Properties and comply with this Agreement.
21.2.Notice of Legal Actions. To the extent Sonder has Knowledge and has received written notice, Sonder will use reasonable endeavors to notify the JOC within 10 business days after Sonder’s receipt of such written notice (not to exceed 30 days after Sonder’s receipt of such written notice) and provide the JOC copies of: (i) any material Claim involving a Property or this Agreement; (ii) any Claim involving Marriott; (iii) any judgment, order, or other decree related to a Property or Sonder; (iv) any Claim involving a debtor or creditor proceeding, bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding involving any Sonder Party; (v) any written complaint or Claim regarding a Property’s compliance with Accessibility Requirements; or (vi) any written notice received from a governmental authority of a Claim involving a Property that relates to (a) a violation of the FLS Standards or (b) a material failure to meet health or life safety requirements or any other material violation of Applicable Law related to a Property or this Agreement. This Section 21.2 will not change any notice requirement that either party may have under any insurance policies, under Section 9.3.E, or under Section 13.
22.RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES
This Agreement does not create a fiduciary relationship between Marriott and Sonder. Sonder is an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent, legal representative, joint venturer, partner, joint employer, or employee of the other for any purpose and Sonder will make no representation to the contrary. Nothing in this Agreement authorizes either party to make any contract, agreement, warranty or representation on the other’s behalf, or to incur any debt or other obligation in the other’s name.
23.GOVERNING LAW; ARBITRATION; INTERIM RELIEF; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT; WAIVERS
23.1.Governing Law, Arbitration, and Jurisdiction.
A.    Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed under and governed by New York law, which law will prevail if there is any conflict of law.
B.    Escalation of Dispute. If either party intends to submit a Dispute to arbitration as contemplated by Section 23.1.C, then, before doing so, that party will notify the other party in writing that a Dispute has arisen which it intends to refer to arbitration (such notice, a “Dispute Notice”). Any Dispute Notice will set out in reasonable detail the matter in dispute and refer the matter in question to the Marriott Relationship Manager or the Sonder Relationship Manager, as applicable. The representatives of the parties will then enter into good faith, non-binding discussions on the matter and will review solutions and possibilities in order to attempt to resolve the matter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 23.1.B, if the parties are unable to resolve the matter in question in writing within 10 days after the date of the Dispute Notice, either party will be free to submit the dispute to arbitration in accordance
3632659v2 –License Agreement        51    


with Section 23.1.C. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 23.1.B does not apply for disputes in which urgent injunctive relief is to be sought under Section 23.2.
C.    Arbitration.
    1.    Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement and for Claims for indemnification under Section 13 or actions for injunctive or other equitable relief under Section 23.2, any Dispute will be resolved, referred to, and finally settled by, arbitration under and in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (or any similar successor rules). The arbitrator(s) will be appointed in accordance with such rules. The number of arbitrators will be one unless the parties agree otherwise in accordance with such rules. The place where arbitration proceedings will be conducted is New York, New York. The party bringing the arbitration will submit the following together with any demand or filing required by the American Arbitration Association: (i) a full and specific description of the claim under this Agreement, including identifying the specific provisions that the other party has breached, (ii) documentary evidence of the facts alleged by the complaining party, and (iii) a declaration under penalty of perjury that all facts stated in the claim and documentation are true and correct and do not fail to state facts known to the complaining party that are material to the determination of the dispute.
2.    The decision of the arbitral tribunal will be final and binding on the parties and will be enforceable in any courts having jurisdiction. The arbitral tribunal will have no authority to amend or modify the terms of this Agreement. The arbitral tribunal will have the right to award or include in its award any relief it deems proper, including money damages and interest on unpaid amounts, specific performance and reasonable legal fees and costs in accordance with this Agreement; however, the arbitral tribunal may not award punitive, consequential or exemplary damages (except for those related to misuse of Marriott Intellectual Property). The costs and expenses of arbitration will be allocated and paid by the parties as determined by the arbitral tribunal.
3.    Any arbitration proceeding under this Agreement will be conducted on an individual (not a class-wide) basis and will not be consolidated with any other arbitration proceedings to which Marriott is a party but no Sonder Party is a party, except that Marriott may join any Operated Property Owner and either party may join any guarantor of any obligations with respect to this Agreement in any such proceeding. Any Dispute to be settled by arbitration under this Section will at the request of Sonder or Marriott be resolved in a single arbitration before a single tribunal together with any Dispute arising out of or relating to any other agreement between Sonder and Marriott and its Affiliates. A decision on a matter in another arbitration proceeding will not prevent a party from submitting evidence with respect to a similar matter or prevent the arbitral tribunal from rendering an independent decision without regard to such decision in such other arbitration proceeding.
4.    Marriott or Sonder may, without waiving any rights, seek from a court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that may be necessary to protect its rights or property (including any aspect of Marriott Intellectual Property, or any reason concerning the safety of a Property or the health and welfare of any of a Property’s guests, invitees or employees).
5.    All awards, orders, materials and documents related to the arbitration are confidential and Sonder and Marriott will each use reasonable endeavors to prevent disclosure to any Person not related to the arbitration without approval of the other party, except: (i) if they are in the public domain; (ii) as required by Applicable Law; (iii) to protect a legal right; or (iv) to enforce or challenge an award in litigation or arbitration proceeding. This obligation applies to the arbitrators, the court, and any experts appointed in a litigation or arbitration proceeding.
3632659v2 –License Agreement        52    


D.    Jurisdiction. Sonder and Marriott expressly and irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York for the purpose of any Disputes that are not required to be subject to arbitration under Section 23.1.B. So far as permitted under New York law, this consent to personal jurisdiction will be self-operative.
23.2.Equitable Relief. Each party is entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief, including restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, in any court of competent jurisdiction for any threatened or actual material breach of this Agreement. Each party is entitled to such relief without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, without the necessity of posting a bond and without waiving any other rights or remedies.
23.3.Costs of Enforcement. The prevailing party in any legal or equitable action related to the Properties, this Agreement will recover its reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees and costs, including reasonable out-of-pocket fees and costs incurred in confirming and enforcing an award under Section 23.1.B. The prevailing party will be determined based upon an assessment of which party’s arguments or positions could fairly be said to have prevailed over the other party’s arguments or positions on major disputed issues in the arbitration or at trial, and should include an evaluation of the following: the amount of the net recovery; the primary issues disputed by the parties; whether the amount of the award comprises a significant percentage of the amount sought by the claimant; and the most recent settlement positions of the parties.
23.4.WAIVER OF PUNITIVE DAMAGES. EACH OF SONDER AND MARRIOTT ABSOLUTELY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES AND DISCLAIMS FOR THEMSELVES, EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, AND EACH OF THE SHAREHOLDERS, TRUSTEES, BENEFICIARIES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE RIGHT TO CLAIM OR RECEIVE ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, STATUTORY OR TREBLE DAMAGES IN ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO THE PROPERTIES, THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES, OR ANY ACTIONS OR OMISSIONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE. EACH OF SONDER AND MARRIOTT ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, WILL BE ADEQUATE IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES FOR ANY CLAIMS THE PARTIES MIGHT HAVE WITH RESPECT THERETO.
23.5.WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF SONDER AND MARRIOTT ABSOLUTELY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO THE PROPERTIES, THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES OR ANY ACTIONS OR OMISSIONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE.
23.6.Limitations Period. If the MFRDL applies to this Agreement, Sonder agrees that any Dispute arising under the MFRDL must be brought within 3 years after the Effective Date.

C.    Prior Representations. Each of Marriott and Sonder represents and warrants that all of the representations, warranties and information provided for this Agreement by such party were true as of the time made and are true as of the Effective Date.
D.    Restricted Person. Each party represents and warrants, and will ensure throughout the Term, that neither such party, nor the Person(s) that Control such party, nor any of its funding sources is a Restricted Person. Sonder represents and warrants, and will ensure throughout the Term, that (i) to its Knowledge, none of the Properties’ funding sources is a Restricted Person and (ii) neither Sonder nor any of its Affiliates is a Marriott Competitor.
E.    Ownership of Sonder Parties. Sonder represents and warrants that the information in Attachment One to Exhibit A regarding the Sonder Parties is complete and accurate. Upon any Transfer that requires notice to, or the consent of, Marriott under Section 16, or on request of Marriott, Sonder will provide a list of the names and addresses of the Interestholders and documents necessary to confirm such information and update Attachment Two to Exhibit A.
F.    Ownership of the Properties. Except for the Properties that are operated by a Sonder Party under a lease or ground lease with a third party owner (each, a “Leased Property Owner”) listed in Attachment Two and Attachment Three to Exhibit A (the “Leased Properties”), Sonder represents and warrants that it or a Sonder Party is the sole owner of each Property and holds good and marketable fee title to each Property’s location. Sonder represents and warrants that to Sonder’s Knowledge as of the Effective Date (i) the Leased Property Owner listed in Attachment Two and Attachment Three to Exhibit A is the sole owner of each Leased Property, (ii) each Leased Property is leased to Sonder under a lease (each, a “Lease”) between the applicable Sonder Party and Leased Property Owner, and (iii) the applicable Sonder Party has all rights and authority relating to the applicable Leased Property for the performance of Sonder’s obligations under this Agreement. If any Lease provides for a Leased Property Owner to perform any of Sonder’s obligations under this Agreement, Sonder will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Leased Property Owner to perform such obligations as required under this Agreement. The existence of any Lease and its terms that require a Leased Property Owner to perform Sonder’s obligations are not an assignment of such obligations to such Leased Property Owner and do not relieve Sonder of any obligation under this Agreement. No Lease will limit or restrict Marriott’s rights or remedies under this Agreement in any material manner. Promptly after any change to the term length or renewal terms of a Lease, Sonder will provide Marriott with written notice of such changes.
G.    Owners. To Sonder’s Knowledge, Sonder represents and warrants that each Owner is not, and that none of any Owner’s Affiliates (including their directors and officers), Interestholders or the funding sources for any of them, is a Marriott Competitor or a Restricted Person. If
3632659v2 –License Agreement        55    


Sonder receives written notice of a Transfer of a Leased Property Owner’s interest in a Lease, or of a Controlling Ownership Interest in such Leased Property Owner, Sonder will promptly notify Marriott. Sonder represents and warrants that no Owner is an Affiliate of Sonder as of the Effective Date. Sonder acknowledges that if at any time during the Term, an Owner becomes an Affiliate of Sonder, Sonder will promptly notify Marriott, and such Owner will become a Covered Sonder Party.
H.    Accessibility Requirements. For each Property in the United States, Sonder represents and warrants that to its Knowledge (i) such Property is in compliance with Accessibility Requirements, or (ii) Sonder believes in good faith that such Property’s non-compliance with Accessibility Requirements is excused under Applicable Law because the removal of the barriers to such Property’s compliance with Accessibility Requirements is not readily achievable.
I.    Litigation. Sonder represents and warrants that there are no Claims pending or, to Sonder’s Knowledge, threatened in writing that would be reasonably expected to (i) threaten, hinder or delay Sonder’s ability to complete the Holistic Capital Solution, (ii) hinder Sonder’s ability to timely and fully perform any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) result in any Claims against or involving Marriott and its Affiliates.

F.    Maryland. The foregoing acknowledgments are not intended to nor will they act as a release, estoppel or waiver of any liability under the Maryland Franchise Registration and Disclosure Law (the “MFRDL”).

26.MISCELLANEOUS
26.1.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an electronic signature or an executed signature page by electronic transmission is as effective as delivery of an original signed counterpart. Each party hereto waives any defenses to the enforceability of the terms of this Agreement based on the foregoing forms of signature.
26.2.Construction and Interpretation.
A.    Partial Invalidity. If any term of this Agreement, or its application to any Person or circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable at any time or to any extent, then: (i) the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term to Persons or circumstances except those as to which it is held
3632659v2 –License Agreement        57    


invalid or unenforceable, will not be affected and each term of this Agreement will be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law; and (ii) Marriott and Sonder will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement to implement their original intent as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner.
B.    Non-Exclusive Rights and Remedies. No right or remedy of Marriott or Sonder under this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy under this Agreement at law or in equity, except as set forth in Section 18.5.
C.    No Third-Party Beneficiary. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create any third-party beneficiary or give any rights or remedies to any Person except Marriott or Sonder and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
D.    Interpretation of Agreement. Marriott and Sonder intend that this Agreement excludes all implied terms to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. Headings of Sections and geographic designations in the footer are for convenience and do not affect interpretation of this Agreement. All Exhibits to this Agreement form an integral part of this Agreement and are incorporated by reference, including all Items and Attachments of Exhibit A even if such Items or Attachments are not specifically referred to in this Agreement. Words indicating the singular include the plural and vice versa as the context may require. References to days, months and years are all calendar references. References that a Person “will” do something mean the Person has an obligation to do such thing. References that a Person “may” do something mean a Person has the right, but not the obligation, to do so. References that a Person “may not” or “will not” do something mean the Person is prohibited from doing so. Examples used in this Agreement and references to “includes” and “including” are illustrative and not exhaustive.
E.    Definitions. All capitalized terms in this Agreement have the meaning stated in Exhibit B.
26.3.Reasonable Business Judgment.
A.    Definition. Reasonable Business Judgment means:
1.    For decisions affecting a System or the Collection, that the rationale for Marriott’s decision has a business basis that is intended to: (i) benefit the System or the Collection or the profitability of the System or Collection, including Marriott, regardless of whether some individual Lodging Facilities may not benefit or be unfavorably affected; (ii) increase the value of the Marriott Proprietary Marks or the Collection; (iii) enhance guest, franchisee or owner satisfaction; or (iv) minimize potential brand inconsistencies or customer confusion; and
2.    For decisions unrelated to a System or the Collection (for example, a requested approval for a Property), that the rationale for Marriott’s decision has a business basis and Marriott has not acted in bad faith.
B.    Use of Reasonable Business Judgment. Marriott will use Reasonable Business Judgment when discharging its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement, including for any consents and approvals and the administration of Marriott’s relationship with Sonder, except when Marriott has explicitly reserved sole discretion.
C.    Burden of Proof. Sonder will have the burden of establishing that Marriott failed to exercise Reasonable Business Judgment. The fact that Marriott or any of its Affiliates benefited from
3632659v2 –License Agreement        58    


any action or decision, or that another reasonable alternative was available, does not mean that Marriott failed to exercise Reasonable Business Judgment. If this Agreement is subject to any implied covenant or duty of good faith and Marriott exercises Reasonable Business Judgment, Sonder agrees that Marriott will not have violated such covenant or duty.
26.4.Consents and Approvals. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any approval or consent required under this Agreement will not be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the duly authorized officer or agent of the party giving such approval or consent. Neither Marriott nor Sonder will be liable for: (i) providing or withholding any approval or consent; (ii) providing any suggestion to the other party; (iii) any delay; or (iv) denial of any request.
26.5.Waiver. The failure or delay of either party to insist on strict performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, or to exercise any right or remedy, will not be a waiver for the future.
26.6.Entire Agreement. This Agreement is fully integrated and contains the entire agreement between the parties as it relates to this license, the Properties and supersedes and extinguishes all prior statements, agreements, promises, assurances, warranties, representations and understandings, whether written or oral, by any Person. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require Sonder to waive reliance on any representations made in the Disclosure Documents.
26.7.Amendments. This Agreement may only be amended in a written document that has been duly executed by the parties and may not be amended by conduct manifesting assent, and each party is put on notice that any individual purporting to amend this Agreement by conduct manifesting assent is not authorized to do so.
26.8.Survival. The duties and obligations of the parties that by their nature or express language survive expiration or termination of this Agreement will survive expiration or termination of this Agreement, including the terms of this Section 26 as well as the terms of Sections 7.9, 7.14, 7.15, 10, 11, 12.2, 12.4, 12.5, 13, 18.5, 18.6, 19, 21.2 (but only with respect to a Claim, judgement, report or warning related to Marriott or its Affiliates or with respect to the period before such expiration or termination), and 23.
26.9.Press Statements. All press releases and public statements will be mutually agreed by the parties; provided, however, that a party will have the right to use in subsequent press releases or public statements language previously approved for subsequent use that has not been subsequently disapproved or rendered incorrect or untrue. If either party is required by Applicable Law to make (or not make) any public statement or disclose public information, the disclosing party will promptly notify the other party of any such obligation (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law).
26.10.Covered Sonder Parties. Sonder and each Sonder Party that owns, leases, or operates a Property as set forth in Exhibit A (each, a “Covered Sonder Party” and collectively, the “Covered Sonder Parties”) acknowledge and agree that the Covered Sonder Parties will be severally (but not jointly) liable (i) the Royalty Fees, Program Services Contribution (including the Sales and Marketing Charge), Termination Fee, Loyalty Chargeout, and any other payments associated with the Property(ies) in which each Covered Sonder Party operates or has an Ownership Interest in, (ii) each of Sonder’s other obligations (including all representations, warranties, and covenants) set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) Marriott may enforce this Agreement directly against each Covered Sonder Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Sonder will cause the Covered Sonder Parties to satisfy the applicable obligations of Sonder set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Properties
3632659v2 –License Agreement        59    


which such Covered Sonder Party operates or has an Ownership Interest in. Sonder will cause each Sonder Party that becomes a Covered Sonder Party (via such party’s operation, tenancy or ownership of a Property or New Property) at any point during the Term to execute an acknowledgement of being bound by this Agreement within 30 days of becoming a Covered Sonder Party.
26.11    Operated Properties.
A.     Operated Properties; Management Agreements; Electronic Systems License Agreements. To the extent an Operated Property becomes a New Property pursuant to Section 1.5.A, the Management Agreements must contain the terms specified in Exhibit K and the New Owner must enter into the Electronic Systems License Agreement with Marriott. Marriott will have the right to update the form of Electronic Systems License Agreement from time to time after the Effective Date provided that such updates comply with the Permitted Change Standard. At Marriott’s request, so long as the update to the form of Electronic Systems License Agreement complies with the Permitted Change Standard, the parties will enter into an amendment to this Agreement to attach the updated form of Electronic Systems License Agreement in accordance with this Section 26.11. Sonder will not, and will not permit any Operated Property Owner to, without Marriott’s prior written consent, amend or otherwise alter the terms of any Management Agreement in a manner that would (a) conflict with or contradict the terms of this Agreement, (b) impair, limit, alter, restrict, or otherwise cause a material adverse impact on any rights, interests or remedies of the Marriott Parties under this Agreement, or (c) affect the required terms set out in Exhibit K. Sonder represents, warrants, and covenants that at all times during the Term, each applicable Sonder Party for each Operated Property has and will have all rights and authority relating to the applicable Operated Property for the performance of Sonder’s obligations under this Agreement. If any Management Agreement provides for an Operated Property Owner to perform any of Sonder’s obligations under this Agreement, Sonder will cause such Operated Property Owner to perform such obligations as required under this Agreement. The existence of any Management Agreement and its terms that require an Operated Property Owner to perform Sonder’s obligations are not an assignment of such obligations to such Operated Property Owner and do not relieve Sonder of any obligation under this Agreement. No Management Agreement will limit or restrict Marriott’s rights or remedies under this Agreement in any way. For the avoidance of doubt, Sonder has full discretion to determine fees charged to Operated Property Owners under Management Agreements.
B.    Representations. Sonder represents, warrants and covenants that (i) no Sonder Party will make any representations or warranties, verbal or written, to Owners or prospective Owners regarding actual or potential performance of the Collection, the Marriott Channels, the Electronic Systems or any services or programs provided by the Marriott Parties, (ii) the Sonder Parties will, or will cause each Owner to, make timely payment of all CTAC commissions, and (iii) the Sonder Parties will not, and do not have any right to, (x) license or provide to any Owner, or permit any Owner to use, any Marriott Proprietary Marks, or (y) license Marriott Intellectual Property to any Owner.
26.12     Translations.Most written materials relating to the Properties and the Collection, including this Agreement, the Collection Standards, the Software, and advertising materials provided by Marriott will be in the English language. Sonder may, at its cost, translate such materials into another language. Sonder will obtain Marriott’s approval before using any translation. Marriott will own all translated materials, and any related copyrights will be assigned to Marriott on Marriott’s request. Sonder will obtain any agreements necessary from third parties to convey such rights. The English version of all translated materials will control.

Sonder Holdings Inc. Announces Strategic Licensing Agreement with Marriott International

Strategic agreement expected to deliver significant revenue opportunities and cost efficiencies

Sonder also secures approximately $146 million in additional liquidity, including approximately $43 million convertible preferred equity investment to strengthen balance sheet

SAN FRANCISCO, August 19, 2024 – Sonder Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SOND or “Sonder”), a leading global brand of premium, design-forward apartment-style accommodations serving the modern traveler, today announced that it has entered into a long-term strategic licensing agreement with Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR or “Marriott”). Through this strategic agreement, over 9,000 live Sonder units are expected to join the Marriott portfolio by the end of 2024, with approximately 1,500 additional contracted units anticipated to join the Marriott system at later dates. Sonder’s properties, which consist of apartment-style accommodations and intimate boutique hotels, are expected to be fully integrated with Marriott’s extensive distribution channels, and be available for booking on Marriott.com and the Marriott Bonvoy mobile app as a new collection called Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy. Sonder’s properties are also expected to participate in the highly regarded Marriott Bonvoy travel program with over 210 million members, and gain access to Marriott’s global sales organization. Sonder anticipates that full integration with Marriott's digital channels and platform will occur in 2025; however, Sonder expects that Marriott.com will include link-offs to Sonder's digital platforms to support shop, book, earn and redeem by Marriott Bonvoy members and customers before the end of 2024. Sonder expects the strategic agreement to deliver significant revenue opportunities and operating efficiencies for Sonder.

“We're delighted about our strategic agreement with Marriott. Benefitting from the extensive distribution, loyalty program and sales capabilities of a global hospitality leader will help us to prioritize our core value drivers, including our unique guest experience, while unlocking significant opportunities for increased revenue and cost efficiency,” said Francis Davidson, Co-Founder and CEO of Sonder. “We look forward to welcoming Marriott Bonvoy members to our approximately 200 properties worldwide, creating new opportunities for guests to enjoy Marriott’s award-winning loyalty program. Thank you to all our employees, guests, partners and stakeholders as we launch this exciting new chapter.”

“We are excited about this new agreement, which is set to expand our portfolio of longer-stay accommodations in key markets around the world,” said Tim Grisius, Global Officer, M&A, Business Development and Real Estate, Marriott International. “Marriott has long believed in providing the right product at the right price point for all trip purposes and generations of travelers. With the planned addition of Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy, we will be able to provide guests seeking apartment-style urban accommodations with even more options in the Marriott Bonvoy portfolio.”

Compelling Benefits of Marriott Strategic Licensing Agreement





Increasing revenue by integrating with Marriott’s commercial engine: Following full integration with Marriott’s extensive global sales and marketing capabilities, as well as with Marriott’s loyalty platform and distribution and booking channels, Sonder expects these sources of new and improved demand to drive substantial uplift in revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) over time.
Delivering cost savings through synergies and scale: The full integration is expected to complement Sonder’s existing technology which powers end-to-end digital guest journeys and operating efficiencies. Sonder expects to realize substantial customer acquisition cost savings through improved distribution channel mix and preferred distribution channel rates.

Powering future growth: Sonder believes that the strategic agreement with Marriott will enhance Sonder’s value proposition to real estate owners who can expect to realize the unique combination of Sonder’s product and Marriott’s distribution.

Strengthened Balance Sheet

Sonder also announced that it has enhanced its liquidity profile by approximately $146 million to support its long-term profitable growth and the integration efforts under the strategic agreement with Marriott. Sonder is expected to have access to these additional funds over the coming months:
A consortium of investors (the “Investor Consortium”) has committed to purchase approximately $43 million of a newly designated series of convertible preferred equity (the “Preferred Equity”) of Sonder.
Sonder’s existing noteholders have provided a total of approximately $83 million in additional liquidity, including $4 million in financing funded on August 13, 2024, and approximately $79 million in the form of a 30-month extension (through the end of 2026) of the paid-in-kind feature of the Note Purchase Agreement (21 months of which is at Sonder’s option).
Other sources of liquidity totaling $20 million.

The above is in addition to the previously announced $16 million in financing from Sonder’s existing noteholders.

Janice Sears, Lead Independent Director of the Sonder Board of Directors, said, “Today’s announcement is the result of deliberate and thoughtful planning by the Board and the management team to best position Sonder to deliver value for all stakeholders. Sonder has been relentlessly focused on operational efficiency to deliver long-term profitability and these actions are the next step in achieving that goal. With significantly improved financial flexibility from the support of our lenders and investors, Sonder now has a stronger balance sheet to fuel its value creation strategy as it embarks on its next chapter, including the strategic licensing agreement with Marriott.”

Terms of the Convertible Preferred Equity Transaction

Under the terms of the agreements with the Investor Consortium and Sonder’s existing noteholders, the Investor Consortium and Sonder’s existing noteholders purchased an aggregate of approximately $14.7 million of Preferred Equity on or about August 13, 2024, and




have committed to purchase an additional approximately $28.6 million of Preferred Equity, subject to Sonder becoming current on its overdue U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports and satisfaction of customary closing conditions, which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Holders of over 50% of Sonder’s outstanding shares of common stock have agreed to vote their shares in favor of certain proposals related to this transaction at a meeting of Sonder’s shareholders, which is expected to be scheduled later this year.

Additional information regarding the terms of the Preferred Equity will be provided in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC.

Amendments to Note Purchase Agreement with Sonder’s Existing Noteholders

Sonder has entered into further amendments of its existing Note Purchase Agreement with a syndicate of Sonder’s existing noteholders, providing for (i) a one year maturity extension to December 2027, (ii) a 30-month extension of the paid-in-kind feature of the Note Purchase Agreement through the end of 2026 (21 months of which is at Sonder’s option), and (iii) a covenant holiday related to Liquidity and Free Cash Flow through the third quarter of 2025.

Additional information regarding these amendments will be provided in a Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC.
