This Note is being issued pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act’s (the “CARES Act”) (P.L.116-136) Paycheck Protection Program (the “Program”).

1. Rate of Interest.Amounts outstanding under this Note will bear interest at a rate per annum (“Fixed Rate”) which is at all times equal to 1.00%. Interest will be calculated based on the actual number of days that principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days. In no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowed by law.

2. Structure; Payment Terms.During the period (the “Deferral Period”) beginning on the date of this Note and ending on the 6 month anniversary of the date of this Note (the “Deferral Expiration Date”), interest on the outstanding principal balance will accrue at the Fixed Rate, but neither principal nor interest shall be due and payable during the Deferral Period. On the Deferral Expiration Date, the outstanding principal of the Facility that is not forgiven under the Program (the “Conversion Balance”) shall convert to an amortizing term loan payable as set forth below.

On the 15th day of the 7th month following the date of this Note (the “First Payment Date”), all accrued interest that is not forgiven under the Program shall be due and payable. Additionally, on the First Payment Date, and continuing on the 15th day of each month thereafter until the 2nd anniversary of the date of this Note (the “Maturity Date”), equal installments of principal shall be due and payable, each in an amount determined by dividing the Conversion Balance by 18 (the “Monthly Principal Amount”). Interest shall be payable at the same times as the Monthly Principal Amount. Any outstanding principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.

If any payment under this Note shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law to be closed for business in the State of Delaware. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to charge the Borrower’s deposit account at the Bank for any payment when due. Payments received will be applied to charges, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), accrued interest and principal in any order the Bank may choose, in its sole discretion.

3. Forgiveness of the Facility.All or a portion of this Facility may be forgiven in accordance with the Program requirements. The amount of forgiveness shall be calculated (and may be reduced) in accordance with the requirements of the Program, including the provisions of Section 1106 of the CARES Act. Not more than 25% of the amount forgiven can be attributable tonon-payroll costs.

4. Late Payments; Default Rate.If the Borrower fails to make any payment of principal, interest or other amount coming due pursuant to the provisions of this Note within fifteen (15) calendar days of the date due and payable, the Borrower also shall pay to the Bank a late charge equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment or $100.00 (the “Late Charge”). Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed in

PPP – Term Note April 2020

any way to extend the due date of any such payment. Upon maturity, whether by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at the Bank’s option upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) and during the continuance thereof, each advance outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum (based on the actual number of days that principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days) which shall be five percentage points (5.00%) in excess of the interest rate in effect from time to time under this Note but not more than the maximum rate allowed by law (the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall continue to apply whether or not judgment shall be entered on this Note. Both the Late Charge and the Default Rate are imposed as liquidated damages for the purpose of defraying the Bank’s expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, but are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Bank’s exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents (as defined below) or under applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any agents or attorneys which the Bank may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Bank of carrying a loan that is in default. The Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just compensation for anticipated and actual harm incurred by the Bank, and that the actual harm incurred by the Bank cannot be estimated with certainty and without difficulty. As used in this Note, “Loan Documents” means, individually and collectively, this Note, together with all other agreements and documents executed and/or delivered in connection with this Note or referred to in this Note, as amended, modified or renewed from time to time.

5. Prepayment.The Borrower shall have the right to prepay any amounts outstanding under this Note at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, without penalty.

6. Increased Costs; Yield Protection.On written demand, together with written evidence of the justification therefor, the Borrower agrees to pay the Bank all direct costs incurred, any losses suffered or payments made by the Bank as a result of any Change in Law (hereinafter defined), imposing any reserve, deposit, allocation of capital or similar requirement (including without limitation, Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) on the Bank, its holding company or any of their respective assets relative to the Facility. “Change in Law” means the occurrence, after the date of this Note, of any of the following: (a) the adoption or taking effect of any law, rule, regulation or treaty, (b) any change in any law, rule, regulation or treaty or in the administration, interpretation, implementation or application thereof by any governmental authority or (c) the making or issuance of any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any governmental authority; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

Paycheck Protection Program Certification

May 08, 2020

BAUDAX BIO INC (the “Borrower”) has applied to PNC Bank, National Association (the“Bank”) for a Small Business Association (“SBA”) 7(a) Paycheck Protection Program loan (the “PPP Loan”).

The below signer understands that the statements made in this certification are part of the agreement with the Bank and that the Bank will rely on these statements when deciding whether or not to make the PPP Loan.

I certify, acknowledge and agree that (a) if the Borrower is not a natural person, I am an authorized officer of the Borrower and am authorized on behalf of the Borrower to certify to the statements provided below, and (b) if the Borrower is a natural person, the undersigned certifies to the statements below, and (c) in either case, the following are true and correct statements:

The Borrower was in operation on February 15, 2020 and, if Borrower is not a self-employed worker or independent contractor, had employees for whom it paid salaries and payroll taxes.

The uncertainty of current economic conditions makes necessary the PPP Loan request to support the ongoing operations of the Borrower.

The proceeds of the PPP Loan will be used to retain workers and maintain payroll or make mortgage interest payments, lease payments, and utility payments; and at least 75 percent of the proceeds of the PPP Loan will be used for payroll expenses. If the funds are knowingly used for unauthorized purposes, the federal government may hold the undersigned and the Borrower legally liable such as for charges of fraud.

Documentation verifying the number of full-time equivalent employees on the Borrower’s payroll as well as the dollar amounts of payroll costs, covered mortgage interest payments, covered rent payments, and covered utilities for the eight week period following the disbursement of the PPP Loan will be provided to the Bank.

The Borrower understands and agrees that loan forgiveness may be provided if the Borrower uses all of the loan proceeds for documented payroll costs, covered mortgage interest payments, covered rent payments, and covered utilities. The actual amount forgiven will be determined in accordance with the requirements of the Program, including the provisions of Section 1106 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) (P.L.116-136), and in no event may more than 25 percent of the forgiven amount be attributable tonon-payroll costs.

The Borrower does not have any other PPP Loan applications pending and will not apply for another PPP Loan. During the period beginning on February 15, 2020 and ending on December 31, 2020 Borrower has not received and will not receive another PPP Loan.

The Borrower shall notify the Bank if the Borrower received an SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) between January 31, 2020 and April 3, 2020 and the proceeds of such EIDL were or are used to retain workers and maintain payroll; in such circumstances the proceeds of the PPP Loan must be used to refinance any such EIDL.

The information provided in the PPP Loan application and the information provided in all supporting documents and forms is true and accurate in all material respects. Each of the undersigned understands that knowingly making a false statement to obtain a guaranteed loan from SBA is punishable under the law, including under 18 USC 1001 and 3571 by imprisonment of not more than five years and/or a fine of up to $250,000; under 15 USC 645 by imprisonment of not more than two years and/or a fine of not more than $5,000; and, if submitted to a federally insured institution, under 18 USC 1014 by imprisonment of not more than thirty years and/or a fine of not more than $1,000,000.
