Immediately prior to the Closing, Denali and FutureTech Capital LLC (“FutureTech”) entered a Satisfaction and Discharge of Indebtedness Agreement, pursuant to which FutureTech received $340 thousand in cash and a promissory note for $1.0 million (the “FutureTech Note”).

Notwithstanding the payment schedules in the Sponsor Note, the FutureTech Note and the Denali Underwriter Notes, the balance due on any notes (less any payments previously made to the holder thereunder) shall be accelerated and become immediately due and payable in the event the Company receives gross proceeds from any equity or debt financing (including any private placement offering or registered offering), in an amount equal to or greater than the then-outstanding principal of such note plus any accrued but unpaid interest due thereon.

In addition, in the case of an event of default, the Sponsor Note, the FutureTech Note and the Denali Underwriter Notes shall bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum until such event of default is cured. The Sponsor Note, the FutureTech Note and the Denali Underwriter Notes shall become immediately due and payable (in accordance with the terms thereof), upon the Company’s failure to make payments thereunder when due (subject to a 14-day cure period) or certain other actions related to voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceedings (as more fully described therein).
