(d)            Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Delaware Courts, or such Delaware Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

(e)            Waiver. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.

(f)            Severability. If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.

(g)            Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

(h)            Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(i)            Headings. The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Note and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

(j)            Cost of Collection. If default is made in the payment of this Note, the Company shall pay to the Holder, and reimburse the Holder for, all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. Such amounts spent by the Holder shall be added to the principal amount of this Note at the time of such expenditure.

4.12            Sale or Transfer of Assets. So long as the Notes remain outstanding, neither the Company, nor any Subsidiary of the Company, shall, without each Lender’s written consent, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of or transfer any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that for purposes of clarity, it is understood that the Company enters, trades, modifies and terminates early real property leases from time to time as part of its operations in the ordinary course of business. Any consent to the disposition of any assets may be conditioned on a specified use of the proceeds of disposition. In addition, so long as the Notes remain outstanding, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall sell or transfer or otherwise dispose of any assets to any Subsidiary that is not a guarantor under, and a party to, the Security Agreement.

No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Lender by the Company and negotiated separately by each Lender, and is intended for the Company to treat the Lenders as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Lenders acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Notes or otherwise.

4.14            Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Lender, severally and not jointly with the other Lenders, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company, such Lender will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and the information included in the Transaction Documents and the Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Lender makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced by the Company in a press release as described in Section 4.6, (ii) no Lender shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws, and (iii) no Lender shall have any duty of confidentiality to the Company or its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Lender that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Lender’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Lender’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the decision to make the Loans covered by this Agreement.

4.15            Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Notes as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of any Lender.

4.19            Distributions on Capital Stock. So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not without each Lender’s written consent, (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, property or other securities) on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any Subsidiary make any other payment or distribution in respect of its capital stock.

So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without each Lender’s written consent, enter into any transaction with Affiliates, except transactions with affiliates made in the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.21 shall prohibit the Company from entering into any transaction with an Affiliate for the purpose of the Affiliate making a loan or advance to the Company.

4.22            Proceeds of Other Equity or Debt Issuances or Asset Sales.

(a)            The Company agrees to provide to the Lenders at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of any proposed (i) sales of debt or equity securities, and (ii) sales of assets outside the ordinary course of business (each, a “Funding Transaction”) and, upon the written request of one or more Lenders delivered to the Company no later than three (3) Business Days following receipt of any such notice, to repay the principal amount of the Notes held by such Lender(s), on a pro rata basis if Lenders have requested the repayment of an aggregate principal amount of Notes that is more than the net proceeds of such Funding Transaction, at a repayment price equal to one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the principal amount to be repaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such principal amount, within three (3) Business Days of the closing of such Funding Transaction, from the net proceeds of the Funding Transaction, prior to applying the net proceeds of the Funding Transaction for any other purposes.

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.

(c)            Any Lender 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 (2^nd) Trading Day after all of the Lenders have received the Pre-Notice that such Lender is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Lender’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Lender 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 Lender as of such second (2^nd) Trading Day, such Lender shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.

(d)            If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2^nd) Trading Day after all of the Lenders have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Lenders of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may consummate the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

(e)            If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2^nd) Trading Day after all of the Lenders have received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Lenders seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, each such Lender shall have the right to purchase its Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Participation Maximum. “Pro Rata Portion” means the ratio of (x) the Subscription Amount of Securities purchased by a Lender participating under this Section 4.24 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Subscription Amounts of Securities purchased by all Lenders participating under this Section 4.24.

(f)            The Company must provide the Lenders with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Lenders will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 4.24, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice.

(g)           The Company and each Lender agree that if any Lender elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Lender shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the prior written consent of such Lender.

(h)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.24 and unless otherwise agreed to by such Lender, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Lender that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that such Lender will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such tenth (10th) 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 such Lender, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Lender shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(i)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.24 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

4.25            Right of First Refusal. If from the date hereof until the date that is the later of (i) the date on which no Notes are outstanding and (ii) the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company or any Subsidiary has a bona fide offer of capital or financing from any third party that the Company or Subsidiary intends to act upon, then the Company must first offer such opportunity to the Lenders to provide such capital or financing to the Company or Subsidiary on the same terms as each respective third party’s terms. Should the Lenders be unwilling or unable to provide such capital or financing to the Company within ten (10) Trading Days from the Lenders’ receipt of written notice of the offer (the “Offer Notice”) from the Company, then the Company or Subsidiary may obtain such capital or financing from that respective third party upon the exact same terms and conditions offered by the Company to the Lender, which transaction must be completed within sixty (60) days after the date of the Offer Notice. If the Company does not receive the capital or financing from the respective third party within sixty (60) days after the date of the respective Offer Notice, then the Company must again offer the capital or financing opportunity to the Lenders as described above, and the process detailed above shall be repeated.

ARTICLE V.

REVENUE SHARE

5.1            Payment of Hotel Revenue Share.

(a)            In addition to the Notes that are issuable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.1 in connection with each Closing of the Loans, effective at each such Closing, each Lender shall be deemed to have been issued a credit by the Company in the amount of the Loan Amount of such Lender for such Closing (the “Initial Credit Amount”), which can be applied by such Lender, in whole or in part, to obtain from the Company a Revenue Share (as defined below) with respect to any hotel properties that are leased or subleased by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company after the date hereof in an amount equal to the Credit Percentage (as defined below) of the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) that would be payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.1(b) if such hotel property was a Property that had been financed by the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement. At each additional Closing of a Loan pursuant to Section 2.1, in addition to the Notes that are issuable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.1 in connection with such Closing, effective at such Closing, each Lender in such Closing shall be deemed to have been issued a credit by the Company in an amount equal to the Loan Amount of such Lender at such Closing (the “Applicable Credit Amount”), which can be applied by such Lender, in whole or in part, to obtain from the Company a Revenue Share (as defined below) with respect to any hotel properties that are leased or subleased by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company after the date hereof. Each whole dollar of the Initial Credit Amount or the Applicable Credit Amounts issued to a Lender is hereinafter referred to as a “Credit”). The Company shall forward to each Lender with Credits a complete copy of the lease or sublease entered into by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company after the date hereof within five (5) Business Days of the date such lease or sublease is executed and delivered by the parties thereto. Each Lender may elect to apply all or a portion of the Credits then held by such Lender to purchase the applicable Credit Percentage of the Revenue Share with respect to any such hotel property by written notice to the Company within ten (10) Business Days of the date on which the Lenders are furnished a copy of the lease or sublease for such hotel property. If any Lenders elect to apply Credits with respect to any such hotel property, such hotel property shall be deemed to be a Property for all purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 5.1, the term “Credit Percentage” means, with respect to any such Lender and the applicable Property, a fraction, the numerator of which is dollar amount of Credits applied by such Lender with respect to such Property and the denominator is the amount of the letter of credit that was posted by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company as a security deposit for the rental payments under the applicable lease or sublease of such Property.

(b)            With respect each calendar quarter during the Original Lease Term (as defined below) of a Property (each, a “Revenue Share Period”), commencing with the first full calendar quarter following the date on which the Company or an Affiliate of the Company originally enters into a lease or sublease for such Property, the Company shall, with respect to each Property leased or subleased by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company during such Revenue Share Period, pay to each Lender such Lender’s Credit Percentage of the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) of the Quarterly Net Rental Revenues (as defined below) received by the Company or any Affiliate thereof with respect to such Property during such Revenue Share Period. Within ten (10) days of the date of the filing by the Company of its Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for each Revenue Share Period, the Company shall deliver to each Lender an officer’s certificate certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (a “Revenue Share Certificate”) that sets forth with respect to each Property (i) the Quarterly Net Rental Revenues received by the Company and each Affiliate of the Company in respect of such Property during the immediately preceding Revenue Share Period, (ii) the amount that is equal to the Applicable Percentage of the Quarterly Net Rental Revenues in respect of such Property (such amount, the “Revenue Share”) for such immediately preceding Revenue Share Period, and (iii) each Lender’s Credit Percentage of such Revenue Share (the “Payment Amount”), which certificate shall set forth, with respect to each Property in respect of which the Company or an Affiliate of the Company received revenues, the basis for the Company’s calculation of such Quarterly Net Rental Revenues, such Revenue Share and the Payment Amount and which certificate shall have annexed thereto copies of the bank statements covering such immediately preceding Revenue Share Period for each account of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company into which any revenues generated by a Property during such Revenue Share Period were deposited during such Revenue Share Period. The Company shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Payment Amount for a Revenue Share Period for each Property within two (2) Business Days of the date of delivery to such Lender of the applicable Revenue Share Certificate for such Revenue Share Period by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as such Lender shall have directed in writing; provided, however, that no Payment Amount shall be due and payable by the Company prior to April 1, 2023, on which date the Company shall pay to the Lenders all unpaid Payment Amounts that would otherwise have been payable to the Lenders prior to April 1, 2023. If the Company fails to pay any Payment Amount within five (5) Business Days of the date due hereunder, such Payment Amount shall be increased to an amount equal to 130% of such Payment Amount and such increased Payment Amount shall accrue interest daily from the date due until the date paid at a rate equal to 2.0% per month (24% per annum) calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day periods. For purposes of this Section 5.1, the term “Applicable Percentage” shall mean, with respect to each Property, for each of the first twenty (20) Revenue Share Periods for such Property, ten percent (10%), and for each other Revenue Share Period during the Original Lease Term, three percent (3%); the term “Original Lease Term” shall mean, with respect to a Property, the term of the original lease of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company relating to such Property, including all extensions thereof; and the term “Quarterly Net Rental Revenues” shall mean, with respect to a Property and a Revenue Share Period, the gross rental revenues received by the Company and its Affiliates during such Revenue Share Period from the lease of accommodation units at such Property, as determined in accordance with GAAP, net of any lease refunds during such Revenue Share Period as so determined.

(c)            If the lease or sublease of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with respect to any Property is terminated prior to the end of the Original Lease Term of such Property, or any Property is permanently closed for business prior to the end of the Original Lease Term of such Property, the Company shall, within thirty (30) days of such termination or closure, designate another hotel property of similar size and location that is reasonably acceptable to the Lenders entitled to a Revenue Share for such Property to be designated as a Property for purposes of this Agreement (each, a “Replacement Property”), and the provisions of Section 5.1(b) above and 5.1(c) below shall apply to such Replacement Property until the end of the Original Lease Term of the Property being replaced.

(d)            The obligations of the Company to pay the Payment Amounts and interest, if any, thereon pursuant to Section 5.1(b) shall be secured by the Security Agreement as set forth therein.

(e)            The Company shall cause all leases or subleases with respect to a Property or Replacement Property to be in the name of CorpHousing RSL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Leaseco”), and shall cause all revenues received with respect to each Property or Replacement Property to be deposited in a deposit account maintained in the name of Leaseco. The Company shall cause Leaseco to maintain ownership of each lease or sublease of a Property or Replacement Property and shall take all required action to ensure that Leaseco does not sell, assign or otherwise transfer any such lease or sublease without the prior written consent of each Lender. Leaseco shall have no commercial operations other than to hold and operate the leases and related operations for each Property or Replacement Property and to receive rental payments and other revenues relating to each Property and Replacement Property.

ARTICLE VI.

6.1            Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by any Lender, as to such Lender’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and the other Lenders, by written notice to the other parties, if the initial Closing has not been consummated on or before November 30, 2022; provided, however, that such termination will not affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by any other party (or parties).

No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

6.6            Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

6.9            Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in New Castle County, State of Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in New Castle County, State of Delaware for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

6.10            Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Securities for a period of twenty-four (24) months thereafter.

6.11            Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

6.12            Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

6.13            Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Lender exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Lender may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

6.14            Replacement of Notes. If any Note is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new Note, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new Note under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Notes.

6.15            Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Lenders and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.16            Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Lender pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Lender enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

6.17            Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Lender in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Lender with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Lender to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Lender’s election.

6.18            Independent Nature of Lenders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Lender under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Lender, and no Lender shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Lender under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Lenders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Lender shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Lender has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company has elected to provide all Lenders with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Lenders.

6.19            Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.

6.20            Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

6.21            Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.

6.22            WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
